Yes agreed, good design.
A design made for social media? On purpose or by chance I do not know. The rest is history.
Thank you Larry.
Yes she does have good taste. Likes both Apple Watch and her Oyster Perpetual. Got her eye on the new lavender dial. 👌🏻

So as I understand it
The problem with the PRX is that the materials used in the movement make it unrepairable. Can someone confirm this?
Tissot Prx's Powermatic 80 uses plastic components including pallet fork and escape wheel
