Eichmüller men's watch 40 mm white dial leather strap

This Eichmüller suits the man who prefers a watch that does its job quietly: someone in a shirt and jacket during the week who still wants something he can wear on a Saturday. It is a men's quartz watch with a round 40 mm case, a white dial and a black leather strap, powered by a Seiko VD78 movement.

Dial and reading the time

The white dial gives the hands plenty of contrast, so the time is easy to read at a glance. Seconds are shown in a small sub-dial set off to one side, which keeps the main face uncluttered and gives it a measured, classic look.

Movement

Inside is a quartz movement, the Seiko VD78. It asks very little of you: no winding, no setting aside time to look after it. When the battery eventually runs down, you simply replace it.

Case and size

The case is stainless steel in a silver tone, 40 mm across and 8 mm thick, with a mineral glass crystal. That diameter sits well on most men's wrists, and if you want to check it against your own, the watch size guide will help you decide. Water resistance is 5 ATM, which covers rain, splashes and washing your hands. It is not meant for swimming.

Leather strap

The black leather strap is 20 mm wide. Leather softens and develops character with wear, and it lasts longest if you keep it away from water. The black against the silver case and white dial keeps the whole watch restrained and tidy.

For everyday wear, this is an easy watch to live with, at the office or at the weekend, and it sits comfortably under a shirt cuff or with a suit. It comes in a presentation box, which makes it a practical choice as a gift. If you are weighing up alternatives, take a look at our men's leather strap watches too.
