Sporty Sailing Watch Tommy Hilfiger 1791476
Cast off and out to sea – sailing enjoys undiminished fascination. And the right watch has to be along for the ride. But what exactly makes a good sailing watch? Here we show you a sporty men’s watch in a sailing watch look from Tommy Hilfiger.
Requirements for sailing watches
Ideally, a sailing watch includes a compass, GPS reception, a stopwatch for regattas and perhaps even a pressure-measuring function for atmospheric pressure at sea level. The ultimate for all boating enthusiasts with tide-dependent moorings are watches with tide display, and a temperature display is also welcome.
A sailing watch should be water-resistant to at least 20 bar so that it works reliably even in rough seas or if the boat capsizes. Also essential is a sturdy steel bracelet with a secure clasp. A water sports watch should not have a leather strap. The strap can slip off because leather stretches. It also starts to smell when it comes into contact with water. The most important function of all is the regatta timer, which counts down at the start of the race – the race is decided at the start.
A watch with a sailing watch look
Since the many settings are already very professional and suitable for professional sailors, here we show you a sporty multifunction watch in a sailing watch look.
The Tommy Hilfiger 1791476 features a robust silver-colored stainless steel case. The strap is a water-resistant and durable blue silicone strap with two nautical stripes in white and red. This reflects a maritime sailor look, as well as the colors of the Tommy Hilfiger brand.
The Tommy Hilfiger 1791476
In this respect, the watch differs from a true sailing watch in that it only offers 5 bar water resistance. It is also a multifunction watch and displays the hour, minute, second, date, day of the week and 24-hour display via the chronograph. However, it does not have GPS reception, a stopwatch for regattas or a pressure-measuring function for atmospheric pressure at sea level. This Tommy Hilfiger watch is defined purely by a stylish and sporty sailing-watch look.
