Tommy Hilfiger 1710551 TH85 Automatic Bracelet Watch - W95326
Ref. 1710551
Sits in Tommy Hilfiger’s upper tier here — more premium than three quarters of the Tommy Hilfiger watches we list, which start at £80.
Price range £80 to £239 across 126 Tommy Hilfiger watches in stock.The TH85 collection is Tommy Hilfiger's attempt at a proper mechanical sports watch, and the Pepsi bezel places it squarely in the tradition of the rotating-bezel diver — the red and blue ceramic split has been one of the most recognisable shapes in the category for decades, and wearing it here on an automatic movement rather than a fashion quartz is a meaningful step up from most of what the brand produces. At 40mm with a case that sits just under 13mm thick, this wears closer to a dress watch than most dive-inspired pieces, which tend to bulk up considerably once the rotating bezel and crown protection are factored in. The white dial with gold-tone hands and indices reads warmly against the cool steel of the bracelet, and the exhibition caseback gives the owner a reason to turn it over — a 21-jewel self-winding movement visible through the back is a more honest reward than a polished cover plate.

Learn more about Tommy Hilfiger
Tommy Hilfiger founded his label in New York in 1985, building it on American preppy sportswear — nautical stripes, red-white-and-blue, collegiate references. The watches are produced under licence by Movado Group.
They follow the clothing closely: large legible dials, silicone and steel bracelets, and frequent use of the house colour palette. Movements are quartz throughout at the volume end of the range.
These are accessible fashion watches. They are not attempting horological credibility, and their appeal is styling and price rather than mechanics.

Frequently asked questions, and things you should know about this watch
Can I swim with it?
Yes. At 100m it is rated for swimming and snorkelling, though not for diving.
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?
No. It is automatic — the motion of your wrist winds it, and there is no cell to replace.

F.Hinds is the only UK retailer we track stocking this reference, so there is nothing to compare it against today.
