Eichmüller watch for men 40 mm metal bracelet

The silver-coloured metal of this Eichmüller men's watch gives it a cool, slightly weighty feel against the wrist, the kind of finish that looks quietly considered rather than showy. The round case measures 40 mm across and 9 mm thick, with a silver dial and a bracelet in the same tone, all powered by a quartz movement (TMI PC21) with an analogue display.

Case, dial and bracelet

The silver dial keeps things easy to read at a glance, even when you are on the move. A mineral glass protects it. At 40 mm, the case suits most men's wrists, and if you want to double-check, the watch size guide explains how to choose and how to shorten the bracelet by removing links. Keep any links you take out, as they may be useful again later. The bracelet has 20 mm between the lugs, a figure worth noting if you ever want to fit a replacement strap.

Movement and water resistance

The quartz movement is accurate and needs no winding or adjusting. When the battery runs down, you simply replace it. Water resistance is rated at 3 ATM, which means it will cope with splashes. Showering, bathing and swimming are not recommended.

Discreet in colour and simple in line, this is a watch that sits comfortably in an ordinary week, from the office to a relaxed weekend, without drawing attention to itself.
