Tissot Watch Legend Lives On in Style

A famous Tissot T Sport watch is ready to become renowned all over again thanks to a brand new interpretation, the PRS 516 Chronograph Valjoux.


This most revered of Tissot watches is a special limited edition that only 516 watch aficionados will be lucky enough to get their hands on.Every single PRS 516 Chronograph Valjoux is characterised by the timepiece's singular personality. Combining ‘blast from the past' nostalgia with updated styling detail and technology, the watch is sure to be missed when all 516 models are gone.

The excitement of the original Valjoux and classic four-wheeled motor sport are recreated by the new version, allowing for high performance precision timing courtesy of the chronograph feature. Accuracy is further aided by the watch's automatic Swiss movement, which emphasises how important every second is when it comes to today's performance expectations.


The exquisite watch also boasts scratch-resistant sapphire crystal glass, 100m water resistance and a luxurious leather strap. It recalls the design of its popular predecessor from the 1960s, which reached iconic status thanks to an award-winning Tissot ad campaign and the endorsement of South American rally legend Henry Bradley.


If this weren't enough to recommend the PRS 516 Chronograph Valjoux, the fact that each one of these has been chronometer-certified by the COSC - Controle Officiel Suisse des Chronometres - is further evidence of their undoubted quality.


A watch with a certified chronometer movement is a high-precision watch capable of displaying seconds and that meets the highest standards of precision and reliability tested and certified by the COSC. The PRS 516 Chronograph Valjoux arrives in a black lacquered wooden presentation box, alongside the COSC certificate and a pair of black leather driving gloves.


The watch could be seen as a celebration of Tissot's rich past, which has provided watch fans with a history of esteemed watches for over 150 years.
