Eichmüller men's watch skeleton black leather strap 50 mm

This Eichmüller men's watch is easy to live with: a manual-wind mechanical movement, a stainless steel case and a black leather strap, with a skeleton dial that lets you see part of the mechanism working. The case measures 50 mm across and 12 mm thick.

Movement, dial and legibility

The movement is the PTS9211, wound by hand. Turn the crown until it stops, without forcing it, and the watch is ready. It is a short daily habit rather than a chore. The dial is white with a skeleton opening, so the hands stand out against the movement behind them. Seconds run in a small separate sub-dial set off-centre. The display is analogue, and the crystal is mineral glass.

Case, strap and fit

The round case is stainless steel in a silver colour. At 50 mm it is a large format, best suited to wider wrists, so check the watch size guide before you choose. Water resistance is 5 ATM, which covers rain and splashes. It is not meant for swimming. The black leather strap is 22 mm wide. It softens and develops a patina with wear, and it keeps best if you avoid soaking it.

The plain black and silver look suits most outfits, from a shirt to a casual jumper. It comes in a presentation box, which makes it simple to give as a gift.
