Eichmüller automatic men's watch, leather strap, 41 mm

At 41 mm across and 12 mm thick, this Eichmüller sits as a standard, comfortable size on a man's wrist: large enough to read at a glance, slim enough to slip under a shirt cuff. It is a round automatic watch with a silver-coloured stainless steel case, a black dial and a black leather strap, one of the models in our range of men's automatic watches.

Reading the time

The black dial gives a clear, high-contrast read. Both the hands and the hour markers are luminescent, so once they have taken up light they stay legible in the dark. A date window is built in, and the 24-hour display helps you tell morning from evening. Its analogue layout keeps everything simple and uncluttered.

How the movement works

There is no battery. The automatic movement winds itself as you wear the watch, and it can also be wound by hand with the crown, which is useful for restarting it after a few days in a drawer. The power reserve keeps it running for a while once it is taken off. After that it stops, and you simply wind it and reset the time. The transparent caseback lets you see the movement when you turn the watch over.

Case and strap

The case is stainless steel, and water resistance is rated at 5 ATM. That is enough for rain and splashes, but this watch is not meant for swimming. The black leather strap will soften and develop character with wear, and it lasts longer if you keep it away from water.

Plain and understated, it is a watch that suits an ordinary week, from the office to the weekend, without drawing attention to itself.
