Stepping up in the same dial colour
Designed to be pinned to a uniform rather than strapped to a wrist, this is a traditional nurse's fob watch in the straightforward sense: face downward at rest, readable when tilted toward you, invisible to a patient. The white dial carries high-contrast Arabic numerals and a red seconds hand against a pulsation track, so a pulse count reads cleanly and quickly. At 25 grams the whole thing sits without pulling on a breast pocket or tunic front. The PC21 movement is sourced from Seiko's quartz production and asks very little of its owner — a battery change every two to three years and nothing more. The luminous hands extend its usefulness into poorly lit wards without requiring a torch.

Frequently asked questions, and things you should know about this watch
Can I swim with it?
No. At 30m it will survive rain and handwashing, but not submersion of any kind.
Water resistance explainedWill the glass scratch?
It can, over time. Mineral glass handles daily wear but will pick up fine scratches that sapphire would not.
Sapphire, mineral and acrylic comparedDoes it need a battery?
Yes. It is quartz, so expect a battery change every two to three years at a jeweller.
Quartz, automatic and solar comparedWhat size strap does it take?
12mm. Any strap of that width will fit, and on most modern watches quick-release bars make the swap a two-minute job with no tools.
Is it a men's or women's watch?
Listed as unisex, and at this size it suits any wrist that takes the dimensions.
