Eichmüller men's watch 42 mm brown leather strap

At 42 mm across and 12 mm thick, this Eichmüller sits as a standard-size men's watch on the wrist, neither oversized nor slim. If you are unsure how that diameter will look on you, the watch size guide will help you decide. It is an automatic watch with a round stainless steel case in a silver tone, a white dial and a brown leather strap.

Case and glass

The case is stainless steel and the glass is mineral, which resists scratches better than plastic. A transparent case back lets you see the movement when you turn the watch over. Water resistance is 5 ATM, which covers rain and splashes. It is not meant for swimming.

Automatic movement

The Miyota 8215 automatic movement is wound by the motion of your wrist, so there is no battery to replace. You can also wind it by hand with the crown, which is useful for restarting it after a few days in a drawer. A power reserve keeps it running for a while after you take it off. If it stops, wind it and set the time again. The seconds hand keeps sweeping while the crown is pulled out, so you set the time to the minute rather than the second.

Dial and display

The analogue dial is white, giving good contrast with the hands, and the date appears in a window. Nothing else crowds the face, so reading the time takes a glance.

Leather strap

The brown leather strap softens and develops a patina with wear. Keep it dry to make it last. The width between the lugs is 20 mm, the measurement to note if you ever want to change the strap.

Made for daily wear, this watch goes from the office to the weekend without fuss. It comes in a presentation box, which makes it easy to give as a gift. To compare it with other models, browse our automatic men's watches.
