Looking for a gift that feels personal without being fussy? This Eichmüller women's watch is a good bet. It arrives in a presentation box, so there is nothing to add except a card. A white dial, a black leather strap and a silver-tone case make a combination that suits almost anyone who likes things clean and a little classic.
The dial is where the character lives. The white background is bright and easy to read, and the seconds sit in their own small sub-dial, a neat watchmaker's touch that keeps the face from looking flat. There is also a date display, handy when you are checking the diary and your phone is out of reach.
At 37 mm across and 9 mm thick, the round case has real presence on the wrist without looking oversized. It is made of stainless steel, and the glass is mineral, which stands up to scratches better than plastic. The strap is black leather, soft to the touch, and 20 mm wide. Wear it with a crisp shirt for the office, then swap to a chunky jumper at the weekend, and it keeps up with both.
Inside, a quartz movement (an Epson VL58) keeps time accurately and asks for nothing from you. Water resistance is 5 ATM, so rain and splashes are no problem, though it is best to take it off before swimming.
If silver tones are your thing, or the person you are buying for always reaches for them, you will find plenty more in our collection of silver-tone women's watches.
