The Tissot PR 516 is the motorsport-flavored sports watch Tissot introduced in 1965, its bracelets drilled with the round holes of a racing steering wheel. The Mk1 executions pair a steel case with a bidirectional dive-style rotating bezel carrying a bakelite insert, a dark mirror-finish dial, and Tissot automatic calibres with or without date. The example Roger Moore wore in Live and Let Die (a Mk1 automatic with date, apparently his own) is the only Tissot to appear in an Eon Bond film, and Tissot's 2024 PR516 Powermatic 80 revived the design with the vintage model's bezel and bracelet cues. No sub-reference for the screen watch is documented, and the later Tissot PRS 516 is a distinct model line. (Bond Lifestyle, Gear Patrol)
