Eichmüller diver men's watch black steel bracelet 42 mm

This Eichmüller diver is built to be worn and not babied. The black steel case and bracelet shrug off daily knocks, the quartz movement needs no winding, and the dial reads at a glance. It is a men's watch with a round 42 mm case, a rotating bezel and 20 ATM water resistance.

Reading the dial

The black dial is easy to read, and both the hands and the hour markers are luminescent. Charge them in daylight and they stay visible in the dark. Day and date sit in a window on the dial. The rotating bezel doubles as a simple timer: line its marker up with the minute hand, then check how much time has passed.

Case and movement

The stainless steel case measures 42 mm across and 13 mm thick, so it has real presence on the wrist. The mineral glass resists scratches better than plastic. The quartz movement keeps accurate time without servicing. When the battery runs out, have a watchmaker replace it and check the seals at the same time. The screw-down crown must be screwed back in after every adjustment, and always before you go near water. A rinse in fresh water after the sea helps preserve the watch.

Bracelet and clasp

The black steel bracelet is adjusted by removing links, and our watch size guide explains how. Keep any links you take out. The deployant clasp has a safety lock against accidental opening. The width between the lugs is 20 mm, which is the figure you need if you ever want to change the bracelet.

Running, the gym or a weekend of DIY, this watch copes with all of it, and the luminous hands mean you can check the time in a dim room as easily as outdoors.
