Eichmüller automatic men's watch, blue leather strap, 42 mm

You are on the train with a coffee in one hand, and a glance at your wrist is enough to know the time. That is what the blue dial of this Eichmüller men's watch is built for. It is a 42 mm automatic with a stainless steel case in a silver tone, a round shape and a blue leather strap.

Movement and functions

The watch runs on a Miyota 8217 automatic movement, powered by the motion of your arm, so there is no battery to replace. If it has been sitting in a drawer, you can also wind it by hand with the crown. It has a power reserve, so it keeps running for a while once you take it off. After a longer stop, wind it and set the time again. The seconds hand keeps moving while you set it, which lets you set the time to the minute. The date sits in a small window, and a 24-hour indication helps you tell day from night. Turn the watch over and the transparent case back shows the movement at work. The crystal is mineral glass.

Case and water resistance

The case measures 42 mm across and 12 mm thick, a standard size for a men's watch. Water resistance is 5 ATM, which covers rain and splashes. It is not meant for swimming.

Strap

The blue leather strap is 20 mm wide. It softens and takes your wrist's shape over the days, and it lasts longer if you keep it away from water.

The leather and the blue dial suit office clothes, yet the watch is just as comfortable at the weekend, so it can be your everyday piece. It comes in a gift box, handy if you are buying it for someone else. If you like the idea of a watch that winds itself, take a look at our men's automatic watches.
