Eichmüller watch for men 41 mm brown leather strap blue dial

At 41 mm across and 8 mm thick, this Eichmüller sits as a standard, slim-profile men's watch: big enough to read at a glance, low enough to slide under a cuff. It is a round quartz watch with a stainless steel case in a silver colour, a blue dial and a brown leather strap.

Reading the time

The blue dial keeps things clear. The display is analogue, and the seconds run in a small separate sub-dial set off-centre, so the main hands stay uncluttered.

Movement

Inside is a Seiko VD78 quartz movement, which keeps reliable time without any winding or fuss. When the battery runs low, have it replaced by a watchmaker, who can check the seals at the same time.

Case and glass

The case is stainless steel with a mineral glass. Water resistance is 5 ATM, which covers rain and splashes. It is not meant for swimming, so keep it out of the pool and the sea.

Strap

The brown leather strap softens and develops a patina as you wear it. Keep it away from water and it will last. The width between the lugs is 20 mm, the figure to note if you ever want to swap the strap, and you can browse more men's leather strap watches in the shop.

This is a watch for every day, equally at home at work and at the weekend. It also comes in a presentation box, which makes it an easy gift.
