PR516 T1494071105100 Watch

The Watch

Watch brand Tissot began crafting timepieces in 1853 in the Swiss Jura. Renowned for its Swiss expertise, each model features cutting-edge movements, quality materials, and a balance of durability and elegance that makes them perfect everyday companions. Tissot presents the PR516 T1494071105100 Watch from the T-Sport collection - a refined and sophisticated timepiece. It features a 146 g case in polished and brushed 316L stainless steel for an even more elegant look. Round in shape, it measures 38 mm in diameter, 11.20 mm in thickness, with a case length of 37 mm. A unisex model, it is fitted with a graduated mineral glass bezel from 0 to 60 minutes, surrounding a sapphire crystal with anti-reflective and scratch-resistant coatings for maximum legibility and protection. The crown at 3 o'clock allows adjustment of all functions. Completing the picture, this watch features a transparent, screwed case back offering a beautiful view of the movement while ensuring water resistance up to 10 atmospheres, or 100 meters.

The Dial

The dial of this watch delivers a sharp, clear read on the time. Set against a black background, it features multiple grey time indicators. A railroad track and baton indexes line the perimeter for easy reading of minutes and hours. The three central hands indicate the hours (short hand), minutes (long hand), and seconds (slim red seconds hand). All time markers are coated with a luminescent treatment for easy reading in low-light conditions. A black date window at 3 o'clock displays the current date, while at 6 o'clock you'll find the "Swiss Made" and "PR516 Powermatic" labels. The brand's signature appears just below the 12 o'clock index.

The Movement

This timepiece is powered by a Swiss automatic movement. It runs on the Powermatic 80 caliber, derived from the ETA C07111, precisely driving the hands and date window. Operating at a frequency of 21,600 vibrations per hour (3 Hz), its 23 jewels minimize friction for smooth performance. This movement delivers an impressive 80-hour power reserve.

The Strap

The case of this watch is fitted with a bracelet featuring a simple clasp for a clean, polished look. Crafted in 316L stainless steel with a combination of brushed and polished finishes, its silver tone pairs effortlessly with any accessory. With a lug width of 20 mm, it is secured by a butterfly deployant clasp with two push buttons for a safe, comfortable fit on the wrist.

Water Resistance

This model offers a water resistance of 10 atmospheres, or 100 meters - a genuinely waterproof watch. Built for life in and around water, it handles everything from puddles to the pool without missing a beat. Showers, baths, and lap swimming? No problem. That said, our Ocarat watchmaking experts want you to know 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 in the locked position during immersion.
