Tommy Hilfiger Men’s 46mm Multifunction Watch (1791140)

Large sports watches usually come with dark dials. This one goes the other way — a white face, black numerals, and thin orange hands cutting across it — and the result is far easier on the eye in bright sun than a black dial would be. \n Case and Wrist Presence \n A 46mm brushed steel case with a wide flat bezel carrying an engraved minute scale in large numerals. The crown at three is fluted and set between two angled pushers, and small black square markers are set into the bezel at the quarters. The brushed finish keeps the case from glaring; on a watch this size, a fully polished case would be relentless. Lugs are short and turned down so the case sits flat on the wrist rather than rocking. \n Dial and Legibility \n White, with black Arabic numerals at every hour and small black squares between them on the outer track. HILFIGER is applied across the right of the dial with 5ATM WATER RESISTANT printed beneath it, and the flag motif sits above. Hour and minute hands are steel with black outlines; the seconds hand is orange, and there is a second orange pointer among the registers. 19 and 85 are printed in black and orange near the bottom of the dial. Black on white is the highest-contrast combination available, and this dial takes full advantage of it. \n Movement and Functions \n Three registers, printed directly onto the white dial rather than recessed as separate discs. The one above centre carries the days of the week, SAT through FRI. The one at nine runs a 24-hour scale, marked 24 and 12. The one at six is a pointer date numbered around to 31. Because the registers are printed rather than sunk, the dial stays flat and open, and the numerals keep their space. \n Strap Clasp and Fit \n A brushed steel bracelet with a broad flat link pattern that tapers slightly from the case to the clasp. Brushed steel is the sensible finish for a bracelet worn daily: it wears evenly and hides the scuffs that show as bright lines on a polished band. Steel does not stretch or stain, needs no conditioning, and links can be removed by a jeweller to size it. \n Who This Watch Suits \n Someone who wants a large watch that stays legible outdoors. A white dial reflects rather than absorbs, so it holds up in glare where a black one goes muddy behind the crystal. The orange accents keep it looking sporting rather than plain, and the whole thing sits comfortably with casual clothing. \n Care and Maintenance \n Rated 5 ATM: rain, hand-washing and splashes are covered, swimming and showering are not, and the crown must be seated fully for the rating to apply. Rinse and dry the bracelet occasionally. White dials show dust behind the crystal more readily than dark ones, so if the seal is ever compromised you will know about it early — which is a small advantage. \n About the Brand \n The 19 and 85 printed near the bottom of this dial is the founding year split in two, which is the sort of quiet detail Tommy Hilfiger works into its watches. The large sports pieces are the brand’s most recognisable line. \n Technical Specifications \n \n Brand Tommy Hilfiger \n Case diameter 46mm \n Case shape Round \n Case finish Brushed steel \n Dial White \n Markers Black Arabic numerals \n Functions Multifunction, day, pointer date, 24-hour \n Water resistance 5 ATM \n Bracelet Stainless steel \n Gender Men’s \n SKU 1791140 \n \n Buying With Confidence \n A 24-month international manufacturer warranty covers the movement, excluding battery and normal wear.
