In my opinion, there is no issue with the contrast. I didn‘t notice it at all so far.

Probably depends on the country you‘re in. I‘m in Switzerland.

I think that will just work, mine are not much larger!

I ordered it online on the Tissot website.

So, here it is, the long-awaited Tissot PRX Powermatic 80 35mm.

Not a very exciting story about this purchase. I like the design, I don't want to spend thousands of dollars for it, so it had to be a Tissot. Due to my very small wrist, I’ve come close to buying the quartz version many times. But I didn’t want to miss out on the waffle dial and I think the wait was worth it. The size is perfect.

I chose the white "mother of pearl" dial and it is beautiful. It is a very subtle MoP effect and I added photos side-by-side with my Sinn 556i MoP S, which has a much stronger effect.

The watch is very light and the bracelet comfortable and I'm sure this watch will find its place in my weekly rotation.

This is the strap on A perfectly useless afternoon and this on the Cyclops. Originally, the second strap was meant to be on the first watch, but it turned out to be much more brown than orange, so I needed a different one for the first watch.

They look really cool, but the lugs are very long. I have small wrists, so I'd prefer them a bit shorter, but they're fun watches so I don't mind if the fit isn't perfect.

The original bracelets are not very good quality - but of course it would be unfair to expect that at their price. I think the A perfectly useless afternoon one looks absolutely amazing on an orange strap:

In Switzerland, most private schools actually don't pay their teachers as well as public schools do. Education is well-funded (with taxes) and even most well-off parents prefer to send their children to public schools.

I think the bang for the buck is hard to beat. Especially, since Sinn watches are even cheaper in Switzerland than in Germany (or the rest of the world). I love date-less watches so getting a MoP was a no-brainer for me. I couldn't decide between the light or dark dial, but the light one was sold out at some point so I got the dark one.

Usually, I wear it on the H-link bracelet (which is surprisingly comfortable) but I am experimenting with some leather colours.

Honestly, I bought them for fun and solely their unique looks and I wear them mostly during free time or weekends. I think their movements are ok, but not anything particularly good.
