Tommy Hilfiger Men’s 44mm Watch (1791607)

Green is the rare colour in a watch case full of black, blue and white, and here it is a deep forest tone under a gold-tone bezel, with a brown strap that leans into the warmth rather than fighting it. Case and Wrist Presence The case is 44mm and slim, with a narrow polished gold-tone bezel and lugs that turn down close to the case. Because the bezel takes up so little of the diameter, the dial is wide and the watch reads as broad and flat rather than tall. On the wrist that means it disappears under a shirt cuff more easily than most 44mm watches manage. Dial and Legibility Deep green, in two textures: a stamped herringbone centre panel carrying a raised flag monogram, and a smooth sunken outer ring holding the applied gold batons. Gold on green is a warm, low-contrast pairing, so this dial is easy on the eye and a shade slower to read than white on black. The minute figures at 15, 30, 45 and 60 are printed in gold on the outer ring. Functions The arc under twelve steps through the days of the week, S to SA, with a green-tipped hand crossing it. The sub-dial at six is a pointer date reading around a track marked 5 through 31. Both are pointer displays, so nothing interrupts the stamped centre. Strap, Clasp and Fit Dark brown leather with a soft matte grain, stitched close to the edge. Brown against green is an unusual pairing that works because both are muted; a black strap would have made the dial look darker still. The buckle sets the length in steps, and the leather will soften and hold its bend inside a month. Who This Watch Suits Someone who already owns the obvious colours. Green dials are still uncommon, and this one is deep enough to read as near-black at a distance and clearly green up close, which is a useful quality. Care and Maintenance Wipe the plated case with a dry soft cloth and avoid polishes, which thin gold tone quickly. Keep the strap out of water. When the battery is due, have a watchmaker do it so the case is sealed properly afterwards. About the Brand The stamped centre panel and the raised flag monogram mark this out as part of the same Tommy Hilfiger family as the navy and white versions; the colour is the only thing that changes the character.
