Tommy Hilfiger 1781811 Women's Watch

Ref. 1781811

The Sloane sits in that particular category of women's dress watch that refuses to read as overtly sporty or overtly delicate — 40mm is broader than most pieces in this vein, yet at 6mm thick it lies genuinely flat against the wrist, closer to a bangle than a watch in the way it carries. The dial does the quiet work: a silver face with inlaid crystals and a single Roman numeral at twelve, which gives it a focal point without tipping into fussiness. The two-tone case, rose gold against steel, continues into the mesh bracelet through the contrast of warm and cool metal, and the self-adjusting slider clasp means fit is dialled in without tools.

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?

No. At 30m it will survive rain and handwashing, but not submersion of any kind.

Water resistance explained

Will 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 compared

Does 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 compared

What size strap does it take?

20mm. 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 women's, though at 40mm it sits in the range that suits anyone.
