From the racetrack to the silver screen, the Tissot PR516 has long been a timepiece for those living in the fast lane. Earlier in 2024, Tissot reintroduced the PR516, and now, with the launch of the new models, the legacy continues.

These include the Powermatic with an 80-hour power reserve, the Valjoux chronograph, and the returning quartz version, now available in fresh new colors, including a three-hand version, adding a new dimension to the collection. Each movement elevates the PR516’s design, embodying the thrill and freedom of life’s journey.

First introduced in the 1960s, the PR516 was inspired by the high-speed world of car racing, where accuracy and resilience are essential. The chronograph version, with its tachymeter scale and rugged construction made it an indispensable tool for professionals who required exacting standards under pressure. Over the years, the PR516 has remained a symbol of strength and style, even appearing on Roger Moore’s wrist in one of his iconic movies. As Tissot expands the PR516 line, it continues to fuel the spirit of those who seek a timepiece as relentless as their pursuits—driving them to face challenges head-on, just like the heroes who wear it.
