The Tissot PR516 T149.462.11.011.00 revives a name that first appeared in the late 1960s, built for drivers who wanted a stopwatch on their wrist. This 2025 reissue keeps that racing brief intact: a tachymeter for speed, a pulsometer for heart rate, and three honest sub-dials doing the timing work, all wrapped around a white dial with blue accents that keeps the whole thing legible at a glance.

On the wrist, the 41mm 316L stainless steel case sits comfortably thin at 14.19mm, with brushed and polished surfaces catching light differently depending on the angle. The blue aluminium bezel insert is the standout design choice here, giving the PR516 a distinct identity against the sea of black-bezel chronographs at this price point. A sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating keeps the dial clear, and the see-through caseback lets you watch the automatic movement in action.

Inside is a Swiss-made automatic chronograph movement (calibre A05.231) with a genuinely useful 68-hour power reserve, meaning it can sit unworn over a weekend and still be ticking when you pick it back up. Water resistance is rated to 100m, more than enough for daily wear and the odd splash, though this isn’t a dive watch.

Key Features:
Swiss Automatic Chronograph (Calibre A05.231) – 68-hour power reserve for real weekend-off durability
100M Water Resistance – Suitable for daily wear, showering and swimming
41mm 316L Stainless Steel Case – Brushed and polished finish, 14.19mm thick so it sits well under a cuff
Sapphire Crystal with Anti-Reflective Coating – Scratch resistant and glare-free in direct light
Tachymeter & Pulsometer Bezel – Blue aluminium insert, genuine motorsport function not just styling
See-Through Caseback – Watch the automatic movement at work
Weight 172g – Substantial without tipping into heavy

Why Choose the PR516?
✔ Genuine dual-scale bezel (tachymeter + pulsometer) most chronographs at this price only fake with one
✔ 68-hour power reserve outlasts a weekend off the wrist
✔ 41mm case wears close to the wrist, not oversized
✔ See-through caseback shows Swiss chronograph engineering, not a blanked-out back
✔ Blue-on-white dial stands apart from the usual black-bezel chronograph crowd

A chronograph with genuine racing DNA, not just the look of one.
