The Tommy Hilfiger 1791700 is a generously sized watch built around a ss ip black case. It measures 40 mm across.
Case and Wrist Presence
This is a 40 mm case, worked in ss ip black. At 40 mm it lands in the range most men’s wrists take comfortably, and it will sit under a cuff.
Movement and Functions
A quartz movement drives the watch. That means accuracy which needs no daily attention, no winding routine, and no rate drift to correct.
- Time only – hours, minutes and seconds, nothing more
- Water resistance – 3 ATM (30 metres)
- Mineral crystal – protecting the dial
Strap, Clasp and Fit
The strap is leather. Leather softens and takes the shape of the wrist over the first few weeks, and it is the easiest material to replace later if you want a different look.
Water Resistance and Everyday Durability
The watch is rated to 3 ATM, or 30 metres of static pressure. That covers rain and incidental splashes. Take it off before you shower or swim. Make sure the crown is fully seated before any contact with water.
A mineral crystal protects the dial – harder than acrylic and more shatter-resistant than sapphire, which is a sensible trade-off on a case this size.
Who This Watch Suits
- An everyday wrist size that still reads as a proper men’s watch
- Smart-casual dressing, where a bracelet would read too heavy
- Gift buyers looking for something recognisable, boxed and properly warranted
Care and Maintenance
A watch at this level rewards very little maintenance, but the little it asks for makes the difference between one that still looks sharp in five years and one that does not. Have the battery replaced by a watchmaker rather than a kiosk – a proper service reseats the case gasket at the same time, which is what actually preserves the water rating. A flat battery left in the case is the single most common cause of avoidable movement damage. Keep it away from the shower and the pool – the rating here covers splashes, not immersion.
Leather and water are a poor combination: a soaked strap stiffens and cracks as it dries. Let it breathe between wears and it will last years rather than months. Keep it clear of perfume and solvents, off the speaker on your desk, and out of direct sun when you take it off.
About the Brand and Ownership
The appeal of a Tommy Hilfiger is that it is unmistakable. You are buying a design point of view rather than an anonymous case with a dial in it. Quartz keeps the running costs near zero – a battery every few years and the occasional seal check is the whole of the maintenance schedule. Basic care goes a long way – keep it clear of solvents and perfume, rinse the strap if it has been in salt water, and store it somewhere dry.
The Short Version
What you are getting is an everyday size that still has presence, a leather strap that softens the whole thing. It is not trying to be a heirloom piece and it does not price itself like one. It is a well-made, recognisable watch that does the job every day and looks considered doing it.
