Tissot T-Sport PR516 Powermatic 80 – racing heritage with modern mechanics
With the PR516, Tissot revives one of the most striking chapters of its sports watch history: the original PR 516 of the 1960s was closely linked to the world of motorsport and made a name for itself with its sporty appearance. Today's T-Sport PR516 Powermatic 80 translates this retro racing character into a modern automatic watch with contemporary technology.
Powermatic 80: an automatic with staying power
At the heart of the collection is the Powermatic 80 automatic movement, which owes its name to its power reserve of around 80 hours: the watch keeps running reliably even after a watch-free weekend. Together with the sporty case design and the motorsport-inspired details, the result is a mechanical sports watch with an outstanding price-performance ratio – typically Tissot. It is remarkable how much mechanics Tissot offers here at an accessible price: the PR516 Powermatic 80 is one of those watches that make entering the world of mechanical watches particularly easy, without design or finishing looking like a compromise. The "PR" abbreviation and the number 516 also tie in directly with the historic model designation – a deliberate commitment to the brand's own history. The PR516 therefore also cuts an excellent figure as a sporty second watch alongside a larger collection piece: anyone who appreciates the charm of classic motorsport watches gets a lot of watch for their money here. A watch that does not merely quote retro design but credibly carries it forward.

The PR516 Powermatic 80 belongs to the Tissot T-Sport line and sits alongside models such as the Tissot T-Sport PRS 516, the Tissot T-Sport Seastar 1000 and the Tissot T-Sport T-Race. You will find the complete brand range under Tissot.
