Let’s go back to the 1970s with the Tissot PRX 40mm UFO Robot Grendizer Special Edition, as it combines 1970s design with 1970s manga. Basically, it is a standard Tissot PRX Powermatic 80 with a fancy dial. And if you are not into magna, this Grendizer is a robot from a Japanese animation series, and the figure is a sort of Transformer. If that helps to understand what it is.
Anyway, the bust of the robot is on the dial of the 40-millimeter stainless steel PRX. And the outlines of the bust are enhanced with super-luminova. So are the indices and baton-shaped hands. The seconds hand has a so called Harken style, the spear-ish weapon of Grendizer.
The Tissot PRX 40mm UFO Robot Grendizer Special Edition has a power reserve of 80 hours
The movement of the Tissot PRX 40mm UFO Robot Grendizer Special Edition is the Tissot caliber Powermatic 80(.111). An automatic based on an ETA three-hander with a power reserve of 80 hours and a Navichron balance spring. The bust of Grendizer is also engraved on the rotor.
The watch comes on a stainless steel bracelet and is packed in a box modeled after Grendizer’s UFO Spazer. Which is the orange teapot-like thing on the photos. Like all PRX models the price is friendly for an automatic, but the question is: do you want a 1970s manga figure on your dial?
