The Tissot PRS 516 T131.430.16.032.00 is a sports chronograph born in 1965, named after the Monthléry circuit near Paris where Tissot timed prestigious automotive competitions. It features a 42 mm brushed stainless steel case with a 22 mm lug width, designed for drivers and speed enthusiasts requiring immediate readability and certified precision. The watch is powered by the ETA C07.121 quartz movement, offering reliable performance with hours, minutes, seconds and weekly calendar functions.

Frequently asked questions

What is the lug width of the Tissot PRS 516 T131.430.16.032.00?

The lug width of the Tissot PRS 516 T131.430.16.032.00 is 22 millimetres. This measurement defines the space between the lugs on the case and is essential for selecting compatible straps. To verify accurately, position a calibrated ruler between the two lugs, measuring from the centre of one to the centre of the other, excluding the case diameter entirely.

Which strap is best suited for the Tissot PRS 516 T131.430.16.032.00?

The ideal strap depends on use and context. For formal occasions, black alligator with stainless steel deployante is recommended; for daily wear, vegetable-tanned calf develops a rich patina over time; for sports and outdoor activities, FKM rubber or canvas NATO straps offer maximum functionality and grip. All materials are available in the 22mm size compatible with this model.

How do you change the strap on the Tissot PRS 516 T131.430.16.032.00?

Remove the watch from your wrist. Locate the two small lateral screws positioned in the case lugs: using an appropriate tool (spring bar tool), gently move the locking spring inward to release the strap. Remove the spring completely from the lug, then repeat for the second lug. To install the new strap, insert the spring into the designated hole, use the spring bar tool to compress slightly and slide the spring into the opposite lug until the click indicates secure fastening.

Are aftermarket straps available that are compatible with the T131.430.16.032.00?

Yes, all straps in the 22mm lug width are compatible with the Tissot PRS 516 T131.430.16.032.00, provided the locking screws and lug system are standard. Milano Straps offers a verified collection of handcrafted 22mm straps in leather (alligator, calf, shell cordovan), NATO, FKM rubber, and textiles, each tested for dimensional accuracy and construction quality.

How long does a leather strap last on a watch like this?

The lifespan of a leather strap depends on tanning quality and daily wear. A quality vegetable-tanned calf strap has an estimated durability of 3 to 5 years with regular wear. Alligator, being a more resistant species, can reach 5-7 years. Exposure to perspiration, moisture, and UV rays accelerates ageing. Preventive maintenance with natural oils and drying after moisture exposure significantly extends strap life.
