The Tissot PRS 516 Chronograph Quartz Stainless Steel / Black / Strap takes a 20 mm strap: measure between the lugs and that is the only number you need. We list 37 straps in that width. A chronograph carries a bit of sport: perforated leather, rubber or a sailcloth strap all sit well. With a 42 mm case and 100 m of water resistance, a thicker strap balances the case. Quartz movement. Most straps here come with quick-release spring bars, so the swap takes a minute and no tool.
Width is a starting point. Check the case and end fittings before choosing.
