Which Tissot?

[Heathwood]

After spending a bit of time considering watches for circa £200-£250, I think I've got it down to these 2. However, now I'm struggling to decide and thought I'd throw it out to PH.

V8



PRS516



I've considered the more common choice of a PRC200, however, I prefer the above 2 on the wrist.

I would probably go for a leather strap on the V8 and perhaps rubber on the 516, as the bracelets are rather heavy.

Any thought, opinions or suggestions much appreciated.

I voted V8 as I prefer the push buttons and the shape of the lugs. I suspect they share the same movement?
If you think you might like a bracelet in the future, get one with the bracelet and buy strap and deployment clasp separately as the bracelets are upwards of £100.

You should be able to get decent discount on them both too. I have seen that V8 for £192 including next day delivery from an AD.

I am hankering after the PRC 200 though!

Enjoy which ever one you decide!

Thanks to those that voted so far.

Taking a slight twist, I'm quite taken with this 516 with a dark blue face. It's on a bracelet but I could always put a nice leather strap on it if I feel it's too heavy.

Heathwood,


Have you seen the lightly used Tissot PRS200 on thewatchforum.co.uk sales forum price at £125.

Thanks Bry. looked at PRS200's but preferred the way the v8 and 516 sat on my wrist, so narrowed my choice down a little.

Anyway, ordered the v8 this afternoon and should receive it tomorrow with a bit of luck.

Thanks to all that offered an opinion
