Eichmüller men's watch 40 mm

The first thing you notice about this Eichmüller is the strap: black synthetic leather with a smooth, slightly soft feel against the wrist, set against a silver-coloured metal case and a black dial. It is a quartz men's watch with a 40 mm round case, made for daily use.

Case and glass

The metal case measures 40 mm across and 9 mm thick, which sits neatly under a shirt cuff and suits most men's wrists. If you are unsure about fit, our watch size guide shows how to measure up. The mineral glass resists scratches better than plastic would. Water resistance is 3 ATM, so splashes are fine, but keep it off for showers, baths and swimming.

Reading the time

The analogue display on a black dial is easy to read at a glance, even when you are on the move. Nothing clutters the face, which keeps the look clean and sharp.

Movement and strap care

Inside is a TMI PC21 quartz movement that keeps accurate time without any servicing. When the battery runs out, a watchmaker can replace it and check the seals at the same time. The synthetic leather strap wipes clean with a damp cloth, and the gap between the lugs is 20 mm, the figure to note if you ever want to swap the strap.

This is a watch for every day, from the office to the weekend. The black strap and silver case work well with a shirt or a suit, and just as easily with a casual jumper and jeans.
