Eichmüller black women's watch faux leather strap

The strap on this Eichmüller is faux leather in black, embossed with a crocodile-style grain and 16 mm wide. It is flexible, easy to wipe clean and keeps the look of leather without the upkeep. It sits under a round metal case in a silver-tone finish, 32 mm across and 10 mm thick, a conventional size for a women's watch.

The dial is black and analogue. Small cubic zirconia stones are set into it and catch the light whenever your wrist moves, so the effect is discreet rather than showy. Black and silver-tone is an easy pairing that works with office clothes as readily as with an evening outfit or a formal occasion. If you like watches with a little sparkle, you can see similar models in our jewellery watches for women.

Inside is a quartz movement, the TMI PC21. It needs no winding and no particular servicing. When the battery runs out, a watchmaker can replace it in a few minutes. The crystal is mineral glass, which resists scratches better than plastic does.

Water resistance is rated at 3 ATM. That is enough to cope with rain or splashes, but you should take the watch off for the shower and for swimming. This is a women's watch from Eichmüller, built for everyday wear and for dressing up.
