Product Information

Full details

The Tissot PR516 Chronograph is designed for enthusiasts who appreciate vintage 1970s motorsport aesthetics combined with modern reliability. This 40mm quartz timepiece offers a perfect balance of sporty utility and refined design, making it an excellent daily companion for both active and professional settings. While it provides outstanding accuracy and legibility, users should note that as a quartz-powered watch, it requires a battery replacement every few years compared to the zero-maintenance cycle of a solar-powered alternative.

FAQs

Is the Tissot PR516 waterproof?

The watch is water resistant up to 10 bar (100 meters), making it suitable for swimming, but it is not intended for deep-sea diving.

Can I replace the stainless steel bracelet with a leather strap?

Yes, the watch features standard lugs, allowing you to easily swap the bracelet for a leather or rubber strap of the correct size.

How often does the battery need changing?

Typically, the battery in this quartz movement lasts between 2 to 3 years depending on chronograph usage.

Does the sapphire crystal scratch easily?

No, sapphire is one of the hardest materials and is highly resistant to scratches from daily wear.

How do I clean the stainless steel bracelet?

Use a soft-bristled brush, mild soap, and warm water to gently scrub the links, then rinse thoroughly and dry with a microfiber cloth.

Troubleshooting

Chronograph hands not returning to zero

Pull the crown to the second position and use the pushers to calibrate the hands to the 12 o'clock position.

Watch has stopped running

The battery is likely depleted. Visit an authorized Tissot service center for a battery replacement to ensure water resistance seals are properly tested.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable sapphire crystal glass
  • Excellent legibility in various light conditions
  • Versatile 40mm size fits most wrist types
  • Reliable Swiss quartz precision
  • Sporty, timeless heritage aesthetic

Cons

  • Requires periodic battery changes
  • Quartz movement lacks the sweep of mechanical models
  • Larger chronograph buttons may snag on tight cuffs

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set the time, pull the crown to the second click and rotate to adjust the hour and minute hands. For the chronograph functions, use the top pusher to start and stop the timer, and the bottom pusher to reset the needles to zero. To keep your watch in top condition, rinse the stainless steel bracelet with fresh water after exposure to salt water to prevent mineral buildup. Avoid using harsh chemicals to clean the sapphire crystal. If you decide to change the bracelet, ensure you use the correct lug width tool to avoid scratching the watch case.
