Tommy Hilfiger 1791376 Essential Quartz Grey Dial Men's Watch
Ref. 1791376
A large-dialled fashion watch kept deliberately unfussy — the slate grey face, Arabic numerals and the Tommy Hilfiger flag at twelve are the whole story, with nothing competing for attention. At 44.5mm it reads boldly on the wrist, yet 10mm of case thickness means it passes under a shirt cuff with less resistance than many watches half its diameter. The matte black calfskin strap suits the restrained palette and wears softly from early on. This is a watch built around the desk and the commute, and it is honest about that.

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 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?
22mm. 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 men's.
