Thunderbirds watch for men 42 mm leather strap

The stainless steel case of this Thunderbirds watch is finished in a gold-tone colour and measures 42 mm across by 8 mm thick, with a round shape that sits neatly under a shirt cuff. Inside is a Miyota 2035 quartz movement, paired with an analogue display and a blue dial that is easy to read at a glance.

How it is built

Stainless steel is a sensible choice for a watch you wear every day, as it copes well with sweat and the damp of ordinary life. The mineral glass over the dial helps keep it clear of everyday scuffs. Water resistance is 3 ATM, which means splashes and rain are fine, but showers, baths and swimming are not. The quartz movement asks very little of you: when the battery runs down, you simply replace it.

The strap

The brown leather strap is 20 mm wide and gradually moulds to your wrist the more you wear it. Keep it dry to make it last, and it will develop a lived-in character that suits the warm gold-tone case. If you like the look and want to compare it with similar styles, have a browse through our men's leather strap watches.

It is a watch you can wear from Monday to Sunday, at the office or out with friends at the weekend. The blue and gold combination gives it a confident look without being loud, and it arrives in a gift box, which makes it an easy present for a man who appreciates a classic leather watch.
