Tommy Hilfiger Hampton 42mm Mens Watch Blue
Ref. 1792278
Sits in Tommy Hilfiger’s upper tier here — more premium than three quarters of the Tommy Hilfiger watches we list, which start at £90.
Price range £90 to £239 across 143 Tommy Hilfiger watches in stock.The Hampton line sits squarely in Tommy Hilfiger's American-casual register — clean geometry, a dial that reads at a glance, no complications beyond what daily life actually asks for. The blue dial is built around baton markers and a layered display that carries day, date and a tachymeter bezel without feeling cluttered, and the movement inside is a Seiko Instruments quartz, which is a more considered choice than the generic sourcing common at this end of the market. At 42mm the case wears broadly but not aggressively, and the push-button deployant on the steel bracelet makes for a secure fit that a standard buckle strap rarely matches for day-to-day convenience. The mix of polished and brushed surfaces on the case and links keeps the whole thing from reading as purely dressy or purely casual.

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?
Showering yes, swimming no. 50m covers splashes and brief immersion, but a swimming stroke generates well above the pressure that figure describes.
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 comparedIs it a men's or women's watch?
Listed as men's.
Cheapest place to buy
Goldsmiths is the only UK retailer we track stocking this reference, so there is nothing to compare it against today.
