The Tissot PR516 is a manual chronograph watch, with a 41mm stainless steel case, 13.67mm thick, powered by the 13.25' movement and a 68-hour power reserve. Water resistance is rated to 100m, under a sapphire crystal. Manufacturer MSRP is $2,100.
Owners and reviewers widely praise the Tissot PR516 for its retro styling and value, with many highlighting its well-finished dial and bezel execution. The manual-wind chronograph variant is noted for its impressive movement and accessible price point, while the automatic chronograph is described as rugged with a clean dial and cool color scheme. However, some owners find the dial bland, and the automatic chronograph's slab-sided case and weight lead to a clumsy wear experience. The mineral glass bezel insert on the automatic chronograph deviates from the original's flush design, and the movement finishing is considered simplistic. One owner of the Powermatic variant expressed disappointment with its fixed bezel, deeming it a marketing gimmick. On balance, enthusiasts rate the Tissot PR516 highly for its vintage-inspired design and horological substance at an accessible price.
