Gold case, off-white dial, tan leather. It is the warmest combination in this family and the one that looks least like a piece of technology and most like an accessory you would keep for years. Case and Wrist Presence The case is 38mm and finished in gold tone with a slim polished bezel. Gold against a tan strap narrows the colour range of the whole watch, so it reads as one object rather than a dial bolted to a band. Dial and Legibility Cream-white, close enough to ivory that it takes the edge off the gold. Roman numerals mark the vertical axis, gold batons the rest. Against a pale dial the gold markers rely on their raised profile for contrast rather than colour, so legibility is best in daylight and softest under a dim indoor lamp. Functions A day register above the centre and a 24-hour register below it, both recessed slightly into the dial so their edges catch a line of light. Neither is large enough to interfere with reading the time from the main hands. Strap, Clasp and Fit Tan leather with a plain pin buckle. Mid-brown leather is the most forgiving colour to own: it hides the small scuffs that show immediately on black, and it darkens rather than fades as the oils from your skin work into it. Expect it to look better at a year than it does out of the box. Who This Watch Suits Anyone drawn to gold but put off by high polish and heavy links. The leather strap keeps the whole thing quiet. Care and Maintenance Keep it out of the shower and off the beach; sand works into the lug gaps and sunscreen is hard on leather. If the strap gets wet, dry it slowly and away from direct heat, because a radiator will crack it. Have the battery replaced by a watchmaker so the gasket is reseated.
