Suggest you try out Tissot latest movement powermatic 80 which comes in either chronometer specs or non chronometer. This movement boast 80 hrs of power reserve which appeared to be quite fascinating.

For better info, go to tissot website for selection. Reckon Tissot is gradually putting this engine to their series.

i recently bought the tissot powermatic 80 for my partner, the second had does jerk alil compared to my omega, but 80 hours power reserve, quite good for a daily watch(power reserve can last the weekend when a better watch is being used)

Powermatic 80 using caliber C07.111 have an advantage on the power reserve. That achieve by reducing the frequency from 4 Hz to 3 Hz (28,800 vph to 21,600 vph). That is why the second hand of caliber C07.111 not so smooth compare to the ETA 2824-2.

For the budget around 3k you could also try the Ball Fireman Racer   :)

Take a look at Tissot Le Locle Chronometre Automatic. Winner of last year's Chronométrie International Timing Competition, stunning good look, properly decorated dial and case back, and IMO, the most value for money Tissot. A new one will blow your budget slightly, so go pre-own if price is an absolute priority.

Thanks bro! Yup, the big dial with the thick bracelet makes it even bigger looking! Not to mention heavy as well - perfect if you don't have the time to work out your biceps!  :Laughing_on_floor:

Suggest you go for the Powermatic 80 Chronometer bro. Still falls within your budget and the 80 hours power reserve is definitely attractive.

This one is not bad either if you like Chronograph, but this is battery operated... It has a nice grey face... Much cheaper than the T060.408

Always love a busy and complicated looking dial! The gun metal grey is a pretty cool looking color as well!  :thumbsup:
