Tommy Hilfiger 32mm Watch (1781865)

At 32mm this is a small watch, and it is built to be worn as jewellery rather than as an instrument. The crystals around the bezel and the twelve set into the dial are the point; the time is almost incidental, which is why the dial has been left uncluttered. \n Case and Wrist Presence \n A 32mm round case in rose gold tone with a bezel set right round with small clear crystals. Small cases sit differently to large ones — they stay on top of the wrist rather than wrapping it, and they leave room for bracelets alongside. The crown is a plain rose-gold cone at three. There is very little thickness here; this is a watch that slides under a cuff without a thought. \n Dial and Legibility \n The dial is rose gold with a fine wave pattern engraved across it, radiating in soft curved bands that catch light unevenly and give the face movement. Twelve crystals stand in for the hour markers, set flush into the dial. HILFIGER is printed below the centre and the flag motif sits above it. The hands are slim rose-gold needles, and the seconds hand carries a red and blue tip. It is a low-contrast dial — rose gold on rose gold — so you read it by the position of the hands more than by the markers. \n Movement and Functions \n Hours, minutes and seconds. Nothing else, and rightly so: a date window would have to displace one of the twelve crystals and break the ring. \n Strap Clasp and Fit \n A rose gold-tone mesh bracelet, woven fine. Mesh is the most comfortable metal bracelet on a small wrist because it has no rigid links to bridge the wrist bone and no pinch points at the joints. It adjusts continuously rather than in fixed link steps, so you can set it to sit exactly where you want it rather than choosing between slightly loose and slightly tight. It is also thin, which suits a case this slim. \n Who This Watch Suits \n Someone with a smaller wrist who wants the watch to look like part of the jewellery rather than apart from it. Rose gold sits well against most skin tones and works with both warm and neutral clothing. It stacks happily with thin bangles or a bracelet on the same wrist. \n Care and Maintenance \n Crystals are set in place and can loosen if the watch is knocked hard, so treat the bezel as you would a stone-set ring. Rose gold plating on mesh wears at the points where the weave flexes most, usually near the clasp, so keep the bracelet away from perfume and hand cream. A dry soft cloth cleans both dial glass and mesh; avoid liquid cleaners, which sit in the weave. \n About the Brand \n Tommy Hilfiger’s women’s watches run from plain steel three-handers to crystal-set dress pieces like this one.
