Eichmüller men's watch 42 mm black silicone strap

If you are looking for a gift for a man who wants one practical watch for every day, this Eichmüller is a sound pick. It is a quartz watch with a 42 mm round case in silver-coloured metal, a black dial and a black silicone strap, and it runs on a Miyota 2115 movement.

Reading the time and the date

The black dial gives the hands good contrast. The hour markers are coated with luminescent material, so once charged by light they can be read in the dark. The date sits in a small window. The rotating bezel works as a simple timer: set its marker opposite the minute hand when you start, then read the elapsed time directly.

Movement and case

The Miyota 2115 quartz movement keeps reliable time with no winding. When the battery runs out, a watchmaker can replace it and check the seals at the same time. The case is 42 mm across and 12 mm thick, a standard size for a man's wrist, and it has a mineral glass crystal. Water resistance is 3 ATM, which covers splashes only. Showers, baths and swimming are not suitable.

Strap

The black silicone strap copes with sweat and water and rinses clean in seconds. The width between the lugs is 22 mm, which is the figure to note if you want a spare strap. You can see other options in our men's silicone strap watches.

Plain, legible and light to wear, it suits the office on weekdays and casual clothes at the weekend without needing any special care.
