Tommy Hilfiger Men’s 46mm Multifunction Watch (1791808)

Rose gold over charcoal, on navy leather. The case is fully rose gold-toned, including the bezel and both pushers, and against it the dark grey dial reads almost black. It is the boldest metal choice in this family of watches and the strap colour is what keeps it from tipping over. Case and Wrist Presence 46mm, round, with a wide bezel printed with a minute scale in the same rose gold tone. There are no contrasting surfaces anywhere on the case, which makes it read as a single solid ring of warm metal around a dark dial. That is a lot of watch and a lot of colour; it needs a wrist of 18cm and a wearer who is comfortable being looked at. The crown and pushers sit at three, with a blue accent on the crown. Dial and Legibility Charcoal grey with concentric ridging around the middle. The markers are applied batons, half rose gold and half pale, and the hands are rose gold with light-coloured fill. The pale halves of the markers are what keep the dial readable, because rose gold on dark grey alone would be a low-contrast pairing. A fine blue seconds hand crosses the whole face and is the one cool note on it. Movement and Functions Quartz. Three counters: the day of the week at twelve, a 24-hour scale at nine with a blue arc marking the night hours, and a further register at six. Everything is passive, which means once the time and day are set the watch simply runs. Strap, Clasp and Fit Navy blue leather with visible stitching at the lugs, on a rose gold-tone pin buckle. Navy is the right choice against rose gold; brown would have made the whole watch warm and black would have made it stark. Leather this thick takes a few weeks to break in and will crease across the top of the wrist where it bends. Who This Watch Suits Someone who wears warm metal already, or who wants one statement watch rather than a neutral daily one. It sits well against a navy blazer and looks deliberate with a white shirt. Care and Maintenance Rose gold plating is thin. Wipe it, do not polish it, and keep it away from chlorine and perfume, both of which attack plated finishes. Keep the leather dry and out of long direct sun. About the Brand Tommy Hilfiger runs the same multifunction layout across steel, gunmetal and rose gold cases. This is the warmest version of it, and the only one where the metal, not the dial, is the first thing you see.
