Tissot PR516 38mm Mens Watch White

Ref. T1494071103100

The PR516 traces its proportions and spirit back to a 1960s Tissot sports range, and this generation reinterprets that lineage around Calibre C07.111 — a movement that earns its keep not just through self-winding but through an 80-hour power reserve and a Nivachron balance spring, the latter resisting both magnetic fields and temperature swings in a way that conventional alloys do not. At 38mm with a lug-to-lug of around 44 to 45mm, the case sits close to the wrist without the slight lift that longer lugs can produce. The black-coated bezel carries a 60-minute scale behind a mineral crystal insert that mimics the look of vintage plexi — a considered period detail against the satin white dial and oversized baton hands. The bracelet mixes brushed and polished finishing, and the quick-release system means swapping to a strap takes seconds rather than tools. The see-through caseback gives the movement a daily role as much as an occasional one, and the almost-integrated lug geometry keeps the silhouette clean from any angle.
