Beige is a friendlier choice than the usual black or white dial, and it sits happily with navy chinos, a white shirt, a grey crew-neck or a tan jacket. This Eichmüller men's watch pairs that soft dial with a silver-tone metal case and bracelet, so it looks tidy at a desk and relaxed on a Saturday.
The round dial is plain and easy to read. The hands and the hour markers are both luminescent, so once they have caught some light you can still make out the time in a dark room or on the walk home. Inside is a quartz movement, the TMI PC21, which keeps steady time without winding or fuss. When the battery runs out, a watchmaker can swap it and check the seals while the watch is open.
The case is metal in a silver tone and just 9 mm thick, slim enough to slide under a shirt cuff. The silver-tone bracelet is made of links, and you shorten it by taking links out. Our watch size guide shows how, and it is worth keeping any links you remove in case you need them later. The mineral glass protects the dial from everyday knocks. Water resistance is 3 ATM, which means splashes are fine, but showers, baths and swimming are not.
It is a watch you can put on in the morning and forget about, whether the day runs from the office to the pub or just around the house and the shops.
