Eichmüller women's white watch leather strap

This is a watch you can wear without thinking about it. At 7 mm thick, the Eichmüller slips under a shirt cuff or a knitted sleeve, and the quartz movement keeps time with no winding and no fuss. Put it on in the morning and forget about it until you need to check the hour.

The case is rectangular, 24 x 30 mm, in silver-tone metal. It makes a change from the usual round dial and sits neatly on a slim wrist. The white dial is clean and easy to read, with analogue display, and a mineral glass protects it.

The strap is black leather, 14 mm wide. It starts out fairly crisp and softens with wear, so it moulds to your wrist over time. Black against white gives a simple, classic look that suits office days, weekends and anything in between.

Water resistance is 3 ATM, which covers splashes and handwashing. Take it off before a shower or a swim. Inside is a TMI PC21 quartz movement, which keeps things reliable and low-maintenance.
