Precista PRS-50  today!


Yes, Trias did make some very good Swiss movement watches. The one I have pictured even came with the incabloc shock system and a metal movement holder. Even the case is high quality. All for $189 at the time.

However, the changes by the Swatch group have left companies like Trias out of the loop. They really don't offer anything these days that equals the models they sold with Swiss movements 3-4 years ago.
