Have the watch myself. Bought mine last year December less than a week before Christmas, bought PRS 516 and PR100 (quartz) with a lovely mesh bracelet (I had mesh bracelet swapped for a gorgeous Hirsch Reddish- brown leather strap/with beige underside, made it look quite dashing.) On the PRS 516 I love the Steering wheel decal on the back of the watch. Thus made for the heritage racing tradition. It details a little bit about it, in the document booklets. The booklets are outdated, they are for year 2016. But I never knew the watch was considered old stock when I bought it. I just buy things instantaneous, have no room for thoughts. Turned out the workmanship and finish were, excellent. There's a lovely weight to it, and it feels sturdy. Also love the butterfly clasp. Quick release mechanism is a little stiff on my, it needs to be really pressed in to unlock. But overall, it's really good.
Glad you like it as well 👍 for me it was the subtle details that convinced me to get it. As dropping that much on a watch for me is a lot. But coming back and getting a look at the rear mechanism being the replica wheel, the two tone dial and the yellow insert around the case made me say yes to it. I probably don't wear it as much as I should as for the money the stuhrling I bought just can't be beat. (one of my other reviews)
I respectfully disagree. I’ve owned two Tissot and neither of them hold time well especially if not worn for two days. Tissot is not in the same league as TH, Bretling or even seiko.
Thanks for the comment. I hope you like it. I think it's a great looking watch. Initially wasn't interested but went back twice to see it and once I spent some time looking at the details I was hooked. The other colours and straps look great, I just haven't seen many metal ones around so when I did I went for this one.
The Chrono hand appears misaligned 😱 Hopefully there is a manual alignment reset 🤔 Thanks for the review. I am interested in this watch the murdered out version, but didn’t realize how massive it is..not that I won’t pick it up…but you, I have a 7.75” wrist, your review allowed me to see a couple of things that pictures just don’t reveal. If I could mention..your mic, maybe turn it up a bit or bring it closer to you..I really had to turn the volume up for your vid, compared to others. Cheers
@@martynwilliams4767 Ha, didn’t see that someone else brought it up as well. I can’t remember where I saw it, but some chronos have the ability to re calibrate..it’s done by pressing the buttons in a certain order. My Seiko is off by a fraction, but unfortunately it will take a re-alignment of the hands to fix…but I know there are watches where you can calibrate without taking out the movement
@@martynwilliams4767 try pulling your crown out as to set the time..then try either your top or bottom pusher see if that happens to move the chrono hand towards centre 🤔
Is it me or does the chronograph second hand not line up perfectly with the 12 o’clock hour marker? Is that by chance “micro” adjustable with that movement?
So I played around, as you depress the button to start the timer it moves the hand to the exact zero position. In essence at the point you press the button it will be aligned. Prior to that it is off set by one click. Thought it would be an odd oversight for what is otherwise such a well made watch. Hope that helps 👍
@@martynwilliams4767 I ordered this exact watch from Jomashop (great price btw). It arrived a few days ago and guess what... mine is exactly the same as yours. That Chrono second hand appears to set ever so slightly off from the center until you press the start button. I was wondering if this movement has some way to micro adjust the position of that hand. So I think it’s one of three possibilities. A) it’s a hand alignment issue, B) it’s an hour marker alignment issue, or C) it’s simply a design characteristic (flaw?) of this watch. Either way it’s a killer watch and imo doesn’t take away from its beauty and functionality.
See I think on reflection it's designed that way, so if imagine as the car or what ever drive over a line for the speed check. As it hits the line you depress the button.. So the car is on the line and the timer moves one click and is on zero. That way the timing is accurate. That's how I see it. Especially if both your watch and mine has same design
I had to ask the store to give me one as they forgot to put it in. (have to admit I got home and was trying to set the date and then realised how to hence contacting the store)
They must have stopped selling this version. The one reviewed was around £1700. They do two versions (automatic and quartz) the quartz version was around £600. As said most versions I've seen in shops were the rubber strap red or blue dial combo. I hadn't seen the metal version I bought around hence why when I did come across it I purchased it. Hope that helps.
Thank u so much for brief information.so hows ur experience with this watch?what do u think does it compete with other swiss brand like omega or rolex in built quality and performance??
Can't do a video, but you should have a tool that comes with the watch and the indented button at around 11 is what you push to get the date to move along. If you didn't have a tool then a fork prong or something like that would work.
Start the chronograph when the left sub dial is at 60. This syncs up the chronograph with the watch’s second hand. Then you don’t have to worry about the yellow hand being misaligned at 12
Noted, the location used is only one in house where I can set the stand up to hold the phone. And I tend to talk at 100mph normally so have to slow it for videos. But appreciate the feedback
@@sparky1543 it's a lovely watch, hope you enjoy it. I have to say of my purchases I really rate the stuhrling one I reviewed. That is worth a look as a brand. I have a egard quantus 3 on order, just awaiting it to arrive.

Very accurate watch! Extremly resistent, much more better than the TH carrera calibre 16, or Tudor fast rider
Thank you, have to say I really like it. Its grown on me more the longer I've had it.

Thanks for sharing! Just got the Black and Blue on the strap model.

Cheers, sadly I just recorded it on my phone whilst fiddling with the watch. 👍
Also if you below posts, I think the hand is designed misaligned. As when you push the button to start the chrono it moves to perfectly vertical

@@canadiankrispybacon1450 I'll give that a go, cheers 👍
Got this watch for Christmas. Beautiful. However, there doesn't seem to be a second position for the crown to adjust date. Any ideas?
Watched the video all the way through. Discovers the small date button. What an amazingly dumb design feature
Yeah the button confused me as well. But lovely watch still.
Did you get this from Hour Passion at Bicester Villagr?
Yes that's where I got it from.
What is the lug to lug?
Is it me or does the chronograph second hand not line up perfectly with the 12 o’clock hour marker? Is that by chance “micro” adjustable with that movement?
I'll have a good look later, it's never appeared that way to me.
Your right, it does appear ever so slightly off set. Only noticeable once it's pointed out. I imagine it coukd be adjusted by someone with know how.
So I played around, as you depress the button to start the timer it moves the hand to the exact zero position.
In essence at the point you press the button it will be aligned. Prior to that it is off set by one click.
Thought it would be an odd oversight for what is otherwise such a well made watch.

My Tissot PRS516 automatic red didn’t come with a date puncher did y’all’s come with one ?
I had to ask the store to give me one as they forgot to put it in. (have to admit I got home and was trying to set the date and then realised how to hence contacting the store)
@@martynwilliams4767 bro thank you so much
the point on the other side of the buttons what is it for? Thanks
If you mean the dimple type button, it's what is used to move the date along.
Thanks a lot
Thank you bro 😎
Um... how much that watch?
It was £1700, not sure this model is around anymore. They do it with a black and red or blue strap.
$680 on Jomashop right now. I bought mine from a friend for $300.
Can you tell the price of this watch?its not showing on their site...where i can buy this?
They must have stopped selling this version. The one reviewed was around £1700. They do two versions (automatic and quartz) the quartz version was around £600. As said most versions I've seen in shops were the rubber strap red or blue dial combo.
I hadn't seen the metal version I bought around hence why when I did come across it I purchased it.
Hope that helps.

Thank u so much for brief information.so hows ur experience with this watch?what do u think does it compete with other swiss brand like omega or rolex in built quality and performance??
I m planning to buy my first automatic watch so i m lil confused...
I can't set the date. Can you make a video for clarification?
Can't do a video, but you should have a tool that comes with the watch and the indented button at around 11 is what you push to get the date to move along.
If you didn't have a tool then a fork prong or something like that would work.
@@martynwilliams4767 Sir, I do not know the way or not, I do not know which Azara is responsible
I don't know the keys
Martyns with a Y rule!
Agree 😀
Is there any lume on the watch or is it just on the hands
There is lume on the hour/minute hand and also each hour marker. It's a decent aquamarine type colour and stays visible for a decent time.
@@martynwilliams4767 thank you,mine doesnt have lume on the each hour markers,only on the hands
@@martynwilliams4767my friend has blue carbon version,and also has lume only on the hands
That's odd to hear.
@@martynwilliams4767yes it is,there is a clip here on you tube of carbon version and that model also has no lume on hour markers
You can go swimming with a 100m no problem at all, 50m is a no no
Thank you.
Just bought one to gift. Yellow chrono hand doesn’t reset to twelve. Pretty disappointed
I think you'll find its offset slightly so when you push the start button it moves to 12 exactly.
There is a post further down where it's discussed. Appears a likely design function, yet in promo shots they have it aligned to 12
Start the chronograph when the left sub dial is at 60. This syncs up the chronograph with the watch’s second hand. Then you don’t have to worry about the yellow hand being misaligned at 12
Your presentation and handling is just without any passion...
Noted, the location used is only one in house where I can set the stand up to hold the phone.
And I tend to talk at 100mph normally so have to slow it for videos.
But appreciate the feedback
Watch on the wrong wrist.... tut tut....
Yeah I know, but I've always worn them on my right. I never like how the adjustment knobs sit on my left 🤷♂️
Martyn Williams just carrying on mate, wear it wherever and enjoy the beautiful watch.
@@sparky1543 thanks. It is a great looking watch.
