Will the familiar Tissot PRX 40 205 watch catch fire?

Patek Philippe Nautilus, Audemars Piguet Royal Oak, Vacheron Constantin, Universal International Engineer, Omega Constellation ... No matter which style is taken out, it can be said to be famous. These watches with integrated watch chains are loved by many consumers because of their excellent design and high recognition. Therefore, when other watch brands launch similar watches, it is difficult not to cause controversy. For example, Casio GA-2 100, which is derided as "Farm Oak". But it is undeniable that GA-2 100 is successful, and the topic and sales volume have come out. So, will this familiar Tissot PRX 40 205 watch catch fire?

Recently, Tissot launched a brand-new series-PRX 40 205 watch. The reason why the taste is familiar is that we can see the shadows of many famous watches, such as Vacheron Constantin's Travels around the World, engineers from all over the world, and Defy from Li Zhen, which inevitably makes people suspect that it is "hot", just like "farm oak".

But for Tissot, which has a long history, the real "takenism" is detrimental to its image. In fact, the brand-new PRX 40 205 watch is inspired by the historical models of Tissot 1970s, which are almost identical. 1978 it was the most serious period of the crisis. The Swiss watchmaking industry was greatly impacted and plunged into chaos, and major brands sought ways to save themselves. Tissot has introduced an exquisite timepiece with a barrel case, an integrated fine steel strap and a built-in chronograph movement. Shortly after the watch was released, Tissot registered the word "PRX" as a trademark. Where PR (precision and robustness) stands for "accuracy and firmness" and "X" stands for the compactness of the watch, that is, the waterproof performance of 100 meter (Roman numeral ten is X).

It is impossible to say that Tissot released a brand-new PRX 40 205 watch at this time, or that it is in line with the market. This kind of watch is popular in the market now, and it did exist in Tissot's history. Why not let it reappear?

Comparing the historical table of 1978 with the brand-new table of 202 1, you will find that they are basically similar, but the design of the new table is more modern. This is more reflected in the dial. The new watch has made some minor improvements. The hour hand, minute hand and second hand are closely stacked, and the dial is close to the mirror, which makes the visual effect of the watch slimmer than the actual one. The design of rod-shaped time markers and hands is also more exquisite.

It is worth mentioning that the hands and time markers are decorated with luminous coatings, which will be practical to the end.

Like the historical model, the new watch is still equipped with a timely movement, with a waterproof depth of 65,438+000 meters and a calendar window at 3 o'clock. The new watch offers three classic and versatile colors, namely silver, black and blue. Among them, the silver dial is decorated with vertical wire drawing pattern, and the black and blue dial is decorated with radial sun pattern. All three watches are made of stainless steel case with integrated stainless steel bracelet. The case and strap are brushed, masculine and retro. The diameter of 40 mm is just right, and it can be worn on any occasion.

All three PRX 40 205 watches are priced at $375, equivalent to about RMB 2,500. There is no doubt that PRX 40 205 is a new watch with its own topicality and popularity, and its highly recognizable appearance caters to the current market. And the price of more than 2000 is rarely matched. Although the timely movement may block some mechanical watch lovers, it is said that the automatic mechanical model of 80 movements will be introduced later. Do you think it will catch fire?
