Teddy's Review of the Tissot Gentleman Powermatic 80:

If you're interested in picking up a versatile automatic watch capable of taking on all of life's everyday challenges and have around $1,000, there are a few solid options out there on the market from both Swiss and Japanese brands. In this video, I'll do a detailed comparison of two of my favorite watches in this range, the new SPB167 from Seiko's "Sharp Edge" collection and the always solid Tissot Gentleman Powermatic 80.

The Tissot Gentleman is a multi-purpose watch, both ergonomic and elegant in any circumstance. It is equally suitable for wearing in a business environment, where conventional dress codes apply, as at the weekend, when it adapts easily to leisure activities. As part of the life of a modern, active man, the Tissot Gentleman becomes the perfect companion for every day, every occasion and every style.
