But hey, you can always get a second piece lol

What do you mean they don't hold their value too well? Is that a standard thing with the TAG's? Where do you go find a second hand one for that price? I almost got the TAG Carrera, but now after reading this, I'm glad I didn't.

Oris Divers.. great choice, congrats

is the black strap the same price as the ss strap, when bought together with the watch? i think getting a ss strap together with the watch usually would be a better deal, even if paying a premium for the ss strap first. because when getting a ss strap afterwards is more expensive then getting the rubber strap.

Thanks EJ...

Yeah, the model with the ss bracelet was not available (It was my first choice as well). However, the price difference between the two models ( rubber vs stainless steel ) do correlate with the price difference of the bracelets.

^Oris make good bang for the buck watches. I have an Oris Artelier Complication. However, if you want a SS bracelet, I've found that it is cheaper to buy the watch with the bracelet, then buying it separately after. E.g. Difference in retail for my Zenith between rubber and SS bracelet is $500, but the retail on the bracelet by itself is $1700

Wow.. hopefully I'll be able to afford a Zenith/AP/IWC type of watch in the future. For my model, the SS bracelet was 240, rubber was 160 I believe ( this was at La Swiss ).

For those with the Tissot PRC 200, what was the retail of your watch? I like the design of the watch and trying to find the best deal, thanks

Thanks. Do you find the watch face to be big on you? How do you find the quality of the watch?

I personally prefer large dial size watches. PRC200 case diameter is 40mm ~ Moderate in my opinion.

Tissot quality is A++, Swatch Group brand. Other brands owned by the Swatch group include: Rado, Omega, Tiffany, longines and Swatch itself. I also recommend visiting your local Tissot AD and checking all the PRC200's in person, hold both SS and leather strap version. PRC200 Comes in White, Black and Blue dial version.

PRC200 is a Quartz movement. If this is your first decent watch, i recommend waiting for the new Automatic movement PRC200. Here is a preview picture:
