PR516 Chronograph Watch T1494171104100

The Watch

In its very first year, Tissot introduced the first pocket watch with dual time zones - and never looked back. The brand has since built a global reputation on a wide selection of high-quality timepieces that make every adventure unforgettable. From the PR 516 Chronograph collection, this watch houses a case in 316L stainless steel with a brushed finish. It commands the wrist with boldly masculine dimensions: 40 mm in diameter and 12.17 mm thick. A flat sapphire crystal with scratch-resistant and anti-reflective treatments protects the dial from shocks and scratches. A fixed blue bezel in mineral glass tops the case, featuring a graduated tachymeter scale. A crown and two pushers at 2, 3, and 4 o'clock let you control the counters, set the hands, and adjust the display window. Finally, this 145 g watch features an engraved case back ensuring water resistance of 10 ATM.

The Dial

This model features a round, blue dial that brings a fresh, modern touch to the design. At its center, two baton hands display the hours and minutes - both treated with a luminescent coating, as are the indices they sweep over, ensuring clear legibility even in the dark. These indices are complemented by a minute track running along the dial's perimeter. The seconds hand serves as the chronograph's central sweep. You'll also find three sub-dials indicating the 1/10th of a second, small seconds, and 30-minute counter, positioned at 2, 6, and 10 o'clock. The brand's signature appears beneath the 12 o'clock index, with "Swiss Made" proudly noted at 6 o'clock.

The Movement

Powering this men's model is a Swiss EOL quartz movement - specifically the ETA G10.212 caliber, which delivers precise analog display while animating all three sub-dials. The mechanism runs on a Renata 394 battery and is fitted with 4 jewels to minimize friction.

The Bracelet

This timepiece is fitted with a bracelet crafted in 316L stainless steel with a silver tone. It features a three-row link assembly alternating brushed and polished finishes for a refined aesthetic. Comfortable to wear, it fastens securely with a push-button deployment clasp with safety. Note that the lug width of this bracelet is 20 mm.

Water Resistance

This model offers water resistance of 10 atmospheres, or 100 meters. Yes - this watch is genuinely water-resistant! Ready to join you in any aquatic adventure, from puddles to the pool, it handles splashes, showers, baths, and recreational swimming without missing a beat. That said, our watchmaking experts note that while this model is water-resistant, it is not designed for diving (professional or recreational) and should be kept away from high-pressure cleaning equipment. We also recommend keeping the crown and pushers locked during submersion.
