Tommy Hilfiger Decker Men’s 46mm Multifunction Watch (1791472)

Most multifunction dials use round sub-dials. The Decker uses arcs — two curved windows either side of centre, each with a red segment marking the live portion of its scale. It is a rally instrument idea and it makes this dial look unlike anything else in the range. \n Case and Wrist Presence \n A 46mm polished steel case with a black tachymeter bezel set into the top. The bezel is broad, and its black insert is what stops a case this size reading as one continuous slab of bright metal. The crown sits at three with a pusher above and below, guarded by short raised shoulders. Lugs turn down sharply. At 46mm this is a large watch and it wears every millimetre of it. \n Dial and Legibility \n Black with an oversized outlined 12 at the top and a matching 6 at the bottom, with applied steel batons filling the hours between. TOMMY HILFIGER is printed under twelve with 5ATM WATER RESISTANT beneath it, and the flag motif above. Hands are long steel batons with white infill and there is a red central seconds hand. A small strip of red, white and blue sits above the 6. The layout is symmetrical about the vertical axis, which is what keeps a busy dial from looking cluttered. \n Movement and Functions \n The arc at nine runs a 24-hour scale with a red segment marking part of its span. The arc at three carries the days of the week, WED through SAT, with its own red segment. A small round register sits below centre. Reading an arc takes a moment longer than reading a round sub-dial the first few times, and then becomes faster, because the pointer only travels a short distance and you learn where it sits. \n Strap Clasp and Fit \n A polished steel bracelet with broad flat links tapering towards the clasp. Flat links spread the weight of a heavy head across the wrist rather than concentrating it in a narrow band, which is what makes a 46mm watch comfortable rather than tiring. Steel wants nothing beyond an occasional rinse and dry, and links can be removed at a jeweller to size it. \n Who This Watch Suits \n Someone who wants a big steel sports watch with a dial that is not the usual three-round-sub-dial arrangement. The arc displays are the reason to choose this over its siblings. It suits casual wear and needs a wrist that can carry 46mm. \n Care and Maintenance \n The 5 ATM rating covers rain, splashes and washing your hands; it does not cover swimming, showering or diving, and it only applies with the crown fully pushed in. Rinse and dry the bracelet from time to time. Polished links pick up hairline scratches with wear, which is normal and can be polished back. \n About the Brand \n Decker is Tommy Hilfiger’s large sports line, distinguished from the rest of the range by the arc-format day and 24-hour displays. The brand dates from 1985. \n Technical Specifications \n \n Brand Tommy Hilfiger \n Collection Decker \n Case diameter 46mm \n Case shape Round \n Case material Stainless steel, polished \n Bezel Black, tachymeter scale \n Dial Black \n Functions Multifunction, day, date, 24-hour \n Water resistance 5 ATM \n Bracelet Stainless steel \n Gender Men’s \n SKU 1791472 \n \n Buying With Confidence \n A 24-month international manufacturer warranty covers the movement, excluding battery and normal wear.
