Thunderbirds chronograph men's watch 44 mm white dial

A white dial against a silver-tone steel case and bracelet is an easy combination to wear: it sits well with a navy shirt, a grey jumper or a plain white tee, and it looks just as at home with outdoor kit. This is a Thunderbirds chronograph men's watch with a 44 mm round case and a date window.

Reading the dial

The white background makes the time quick to read, even on the move. The hands are luminescent, so once charged by light they can still be read in the dark. Seconds run in a separate sub-dial, and a window shows the date. The chronograph starts, stops and resets with the pushers. Its minute counter runs to 60, and another counter shows tenths of a second. The extra sub-dials add further readings to the face.

Case and build

The case is stainless steel, which resists corrosion, and it measures 44 mm across and 12 mm thick. That gives it a solid presence suited to medium and larger wrists. The mineral glass resists scratches better than plastic, and a crown guard helps protect the crown from knocks. Water resistance is 5 ATM, which covers rain and splashes but not swimming. Inside, a quartz movement keeps accurate time with no winding. When the battery runs out, a watchmaker can replace it and check the seals at the same time.

Bracelet and fit

The silver-tone steel bracelet is 22 mm wide and is shortened by removing links, so keep any you take out. Our watch size guide explains how to do it. The deployant clasp has a safety lock that stops it opening by accident.

Built for sport, hiking or a busy weekend, this watch is made to keep moving with you. It also arrives in a presentation box, which makes it easy to give as a gift.
