Vintage Tissot PR 100 watches.
The PR 100 succeeded the PR 50 and carried the same brief forward: a precise, robust Swiss everyday watch with a sapphire crystal and a movement that asks nothing of you. It is the more modern of the two lines, and the one to choose if you want the same dependability in a slightly larger, more contemporary case.
Frequently asked questions
Is the Tissot PR 100 a good everyday watch?
It was designed to be exactly that. Sapphire crystal, a Swiss quartz movement, a date, and a case slim enough to live under a cuff. It needs a battery every few years and nothing else, and the sapphire means it still looks presentable after decades rather than picking up a haze of scratches.
Does the Tissot PR 100 come in titanium?
Some references do, including the T049310A with a grey dial. Titanium is noticeably lighter than steel and does not provoke the reaction some people get from steel alloys, which makes it worth seeking out if you find a watch heavy on the wrist. Our listings state the case material for every piece.
What is the difference between a PR 100 and a PR 50?
The PR 100 is the later generation. The PR 50 is the 1990s line with J-series references, the PR 100 followed with T-series references and slightly more contemporary case sizes. Both are precise, robust Swiss quartz watches with sapphire crystals and both are excellent value pre-owned.
