Hey Teddy, I think it would be a good idea if you could show the watches you review with different straps combinations from your store, for example this white dial could have been paired with so many different options and with the video quality you present everytime, this video could have been a 10/10
Not normally a fan of chronographs for myself (after once owning one) but this is a beauty and the first in a long time that could make me reconsider. The only down side is the lack of a sapphire crystal. This is one point where I seriously consider durability, as I've been known to be rough of crystals in the past.
Look at the Tissot Heritage 150th Anniversary chronograph, it's nearly identical to this but looks better because it has a "12" rather than a Roman XII
As always, Tissot does the job very well. Swiss,affordable,high quality and perfect size. Great watch from a great Brand. Thanks for sharing. Merry Christmas! Greetings from Brazil!
Perfect apart from the strap....although that would be a nice change for me for the time being. I'm so attracted to the more "dress" chronographs. Same case back as the Le Locle which is very nice.
Thank you Teddy for making this review, I feel it’s a underrated chronograph watch. I’ve made this watch as my grail watch because of it is simple design, the Tissot logo writing, and the size of the watch coming in at 39mm. I’m always watching for a price drop at Jomashop, right now there is a Christmas sale @ $899 and without the metal bracelet at $879 with a leather strap!
Finally found what I like for my use. I WFH daily so I don't need a dress watch, but I would also like to have the option to use this as a dress watch, I have small wrists too. This is perfect. Not too cheap, not too expensive. Thanks Teddy.
Thanks for this review, Teddy. Now this is exactly what I have always wanted in a wristwatch, the old school look, the sweeping hand movement (even of the smaller dials when not in stop watch mode), a decent sized but not heavy-weighted watch however it would have been good for it to be have a decently luminous dial and even the date window to be luminous and it should have a sapphire crystal face. That would have made it THE PERFECT WATCH EVER
This is a gorgeous piece that I really want. It's funny that you called it a "Dress Chronograph," because that is exactly how I see it! I feel like this thing could be a bit of a strap monster too... the Milanese looks great ... I bet a navy leather strap would like great as would a nice brown one. Heck, you could probably even go Kevin O'Leary style and put a red band on it!
That watch dial will look even nicer as it ages . Like to see it in 50 years . Great size , not too big . Like to see it on a strap . Very nice lugs too .
This is one of the more higher priced watches from Tissot. In Canada this watch sells for $2500 CAD. The case is very thick. But in person it is a sharp looking watch. The style is much different from other Tissot watches.
I got this watch two days ago...everything is perfect..except the accuracy...for now it lost 4mins/day...about 8mins until now...I consider it is the Run-in period of the new movement...so i will keep observing...ETA2894-2 is not so bad i think...Nice video Teddy!
Very nice watch. I had a non-chrono version, but found some shortcomings. The lugs are rather short, so you need curved leather straps, otherwise the straps jam into the sharp underside of the case. I found the case back, while quite attractive, slightly abrasive (to me at least). On a hot day, I'd find a perfect imprint of the case back on the top of my wrist. The quality is excellent on these, though. The dial finish on mine was quite attractive.
I've always liked this one. My only issue is the gigantic Tissot logo. I get it, it's a really, really nice entry level mechanical chrono and they're proud, but come on bros. Dial it back a bit.
I love this design aesthetic, including the Roman numeral 12. Only one gripe. 30m WR? I’d like to think that Tissot could figure out a way to make it 50m, at least. Otherwise, a nearly perfect timepiece (for me).
At $1450, it's a hard pass. At $899 on the Christmas Sale from Jomashop, it's tempting. I want an auto chrono, and I like this one, but I don't love it. Overall nice watch, though.
What’s the actual difference between the 2894-2 in this and the movement in the Tudor Heritage Chrono? Looks to be the same (besides whatever mods Tudor makes to the base caliber). If it’s good enough for Rolex’s baby bro, it’s good enough for me.
I love the look and own two tissot auto chronos but this is a modular Dubois Depraz movement and that poses a problem. It's harder to repair and if the chrono is not used for long periods, it can break. Also the water resistance is too low. It's basically splash-resistant.
I agree full servicing could be more expensive although from what I've read factory Tissot servicing is quite reasonable compared to many. The Dubois Deprez module has been used in more premium watch brands over the years including Omega, Breitling and in the TAG Caliber 12 in the now discontinued Monaco (TAG are now using the in house caliber 02 in the new Monaco that is thicker). From my experience the only negative I have found is that there is slack in the movement when setting (If I recall correctly the DD module drives all the hands from a single gear from the base module) so I have the minute hand ~+15 seconds into the minute when starting the seconds from Zero. I've not heard of recent issues with the Dubois Depraz module specifically but that does not say that do not exist.
@@anthonystevens8683 I actually own this now. Nordstrom Rack had a good deal on it so I got one. I am a sucker for automatic chronographs and own a bunch. I actually have an Invicta Speedway LE that is a 57 Jewel auto chrono and it's fantastic. It's big and super thick and heavy but it's just something else. The accuracy is amazing. It's literally COSC accuracy. So I actually have a lot of faith in modular DD movements. This guy's in fact ETA's own semi modular 2894-2 movement. Some don't consider it to be a modular design because the chronograph is directly screwed on to the base movement and is not separate from it. I have noticed some problems with Seiko's auto chrono movements though. Swiss is usually better.
I just wish Tissot timepieces can be little heavier. Tissot Le Locle that I had was so light and the case back novelty wears out of style very fast. I wished they either choose to fully display or cover it completely. The half covered design collects dirt quickly and hard to keep it clean.
Please let me know exactly what kind of glass on this watch ? Acrylic or mineral crystal. And in your experience, will the colour be yellowing (not pure clear) after few years. Thanks.
2:43 Gives me concern - the watch is evidently damaged. Is this the same one Teddy is selling? As for the watch. Great piece that I was already aware of and am considering as an automatic chronograph.
Hi! The mark you are referring to is fingerprint smudge, not a scratch. Also, the pieces we feature on the review channel are samples for photography/reviews, and aren't the models customers will be receiving.
I love this piece it’s got great traditional looks and an accurate movement but my one negative is the Tissot logo I know it’s trivial but in my opinion I think it could be smaller or slimmer maybe a bit more understated,I think it slightly takes away from the aesthetics of the watch in the bold black print .but hey that’s just me I would still love this in my collection. Cheers teddy keep safe and keep up the great reviews mate ...
I hate that this watch does not have a sapphire crystal. This watch is stunning but the crystal issue is big. I’m a big fan of tissot so I don’t get this.
Only online watch people seem to scream about sapphire on everything. Hesalite is super popular for its looks, tons of fashion brands and well selling swiss brands use it for its characteristic dome and easy to polish surface.
Teddy darling you are doing a fabulous job. One can’t wait to see how you do once you leave school.
At first I was like wtf but then I read your name haha
Well first Teddy has to get through primary school!🤣

Finally! I was anxiously waiting for this review, thank you Teddy!
I find the date window a bit disturbing, as the dial is not symmetric. And i dont need a date on a vintage inspired watch.
Hi teddy, could you do a video on “entry level” luxury/high end pieces between $500-$2000? Thanks!
That watch dial will look even nicer as it ages . Like to see it in 50 years .
Great size , not too big . Like to see it on a strap . Very nice lugs too .
Entry level at $ 1450 ?? Did I see that right?
Is it wrong for me to want to buy this and put it on a Nato or Elastic strap? Imagining it, it kinda looks cool instead of the mesh lol
Dang Teddy, team crispy on this video! Super clean and sharp. Oh, nice watch too :)
Love your reviews!!!
I love Tissot. Great watches and quality for the money.
hi teddy!!! greetings from Antarctica!!!
Ok now I'm curious how and where do you drive that Bugatti in Antarctica?
This is one of the more higher priced watches from Tissot. In Canada this watch sells for $2500 CAD. The case is very thick. But in person it is a sharp looking watch. The style is much different from other Tissot watches.
Please a review of the Tissot Heritage 1973, I’m on the fence about it.

I never can decide what I think about that style of bracelet. Otherwise an incredible watch!
Makes you look like an old Geezer
It’s called a “Milanese Mesh“.
Merry Christmas 🎅🎁🎄🌟
Very nice watch. I had a non-chrono version, but found some shortcomings. The lugs are rather short, so you need curved leather straps, otherwise the straps jam into the sharp underside of the case.

Great timepiece. Would look absolutely gorgeous with black subdials instead of white. Panda dials are gonna look superb on this timepiece
Looks good. Two things I dislike:
1. bracelet (easily solved)
2. Date window. Ugh.
Be great to see a review of the Tissot T Gold with Opaline dial Teddie! Another bargain piece from Tissot 👍🏻
I thought about this watch, but went with the Hamilton Intra Matic Chrono instead. A watch you also reviewed :P
I plan on doing the exact same thing.... the Hamilton is more expensive but I'll just wait a bit longer to save up the difference of prices.
@@JudoAndrew I bought it second hand.
My kind of lugs, funky :)
This is a beautiful piece. I love the dial. Talk about elegant. What do you think of the new Tissot PRX Teddy?
Nice looking watch. Shame that date window is there. Just my opinion. Overall still impressive especially at the price.
I've always liked this one. My only issue is the gigantic Tissot logo. I get it, it's a really, really nice entry level mechanical chrono and they're proud, but come on bros. Dial it back a bit.
Hey I don’t know if you made your newest video off of my suggestion but I just want to let you know I loved it
No date window + double button hour markers at the top instead of the roman XII would have made this a perfect watch. Still a stunner.
I love it aside from the oversized Roman numeral at the 12 o’clock mark I feel it ruins the look.
Great watch for the price. Looks like it would be a real strap monster too.
Love the watch. Fantastic design, even with the date window.
Teddy como siempre muy atinados tus comentarios gracias a vos te deceo una feliz Navidad y un ano colmado de bendiciones un abrazo mi hermano

They are trying to keep it real to the time period lol
@@mrbacchus6127 Too true!
Owner of this watch, biggest gripe is the thick bezel but the dial and lugs make up for it
Beautiful watch...but that case back is absolutely stunning!!!😍
I'm getting this! I'm absolutely getting this!!
They just launched 2 chronographs with fluted bezel 18k gold and guilloche dials (white and black) u should definitely review them
I actually like this watch, time to start saving again.
At $1450, it's a hard pass. At $899 on the Christmas Sale from Jomashop, it's tempting. I want an auto chrono, and I like this one, but I don't love it. Overall nice watch, though.
Check sinn 356 out if you want a great auto chrono.
@@aspiniou Wow! There's a looker. It's a spendy one too, but I like the layout and the day/date complication. Size is perfect.👍
I'm still trying to figure out if Jomashop is legit. Love this watch, and saw that lower price too, but just not sure about that site...
@@iceman242436 I've heard good things. Come to think of it I haven't really heard of a bad experience with them.
@@iceman242436 I've ordered Hamilton's off of them years ago and they still run fine plus shipping is fast.

A perfect dress chronograph.
A tachymetre & telemetre features on the dial will be more 👍👍

Great watch but why did they put a date !??
I hesitate to purchase between this one or omega speed master racing white dial (40mm)…
Which one has a better retention value ?
Teddy maybe a silly question but is the eta 2894-2 the same as the valjoux 7750. Know both chrono but is one better than the other
I just wish Tissot timepieces can be little heavier. Tissot Le Locle that I had was so light and the case back novelty wears out of style very fast. I wished they either choose to fully display or cover it completely. The half covered design collects dirt quickly and hard to keep it clean.
My Tissot v8 and gentleman have great weight..... Maybe it's because they have solid stainless bracelets.

Those lugs are incredible
Great video. Gorgeous watch but the 4:30 date window is a deal breaker for me
tissot have some nice watches , like the visodate alot ,
Would be perfect if not for Roman numeral 12 at top
Can you make a video for entry level automatic chronograph brands? Thanks in advance
I want this!⌚

Can't decide on this or the Timex MK1 chrono.
You should do a review of Victorianox watches
Review the 1973 heritage chrono
Nice watch, but I prefer Hanhart chronograph watches. Check those.
It's a a raesonable size and overall design. The main negative for me is the XII which would rule the watch out for me.
I agree especially next to a large logo.

More tissot please
Would have been perfect without date
Why not sapphire though :(
Does Tissot use Tritium tubes in its Seastar 1000?
can i get a promo code for this watch?
Hi! Should I keep my quartz watch running or not when not using it for a long period. Thanks
If you are storing it away for quite some time I would probably recommend not letting it run.
Great video
Does anyone know if this watch is still being produced and sold with the metal bracelet?
No

Very beautiful.
Lack of sapphire is criminal.
I thought your wrist was 6.25 inch 🤔
Damn it's beautiful
Just me or is Tissot seriously and not so swiftly upping their game a lot lately?
I love the brand and this watch looks great but the tissot logo on these heritage models doesn’t work. It looks contemporary and not heritage.
Jomashop for 899
What are you studying?
Love everything but that braclet....
Hesalite Crystal? Come on Tissot..
Aesthetic choice i believe
Only online watch people seem to scream about sapphire on everything. Hesalite is super popular for its looks, tons of fashion brands and well selling swiss brands use it for its characteristic dome and easy to polish surface.
Great watch i give u that
Oh that's very very unique looking but in an affordable piece, umm... One is too many....😅
Louis Theroux also reviews watches???
If only the watch was 1mm bigger they could have placed the date window below the 12 hour sub dial. That would have balanced the dial perfectly.
