The ellesse Attimo W03-00858-002 is a 40mm round watch just 7.8mm thick, with a dark blue dial on a silver bracelet. Those first two numbers are the design. Most 40mm watches sit somewhere between 10 and 12mm deep, so a case this wide and this flat is deliberate engineering rather than a happy accident — it gives you a full-size dial that still disappears under a shirt cuff. Founded in Perugia in 1959, ellesse built its name on Italian sportswear that never looked like sportswear, and the Attimo is the most restrained expression of that in the range.
Dark blue is the colour that makes a slim watch look intentional rather than plain. It reads close to black under office light and resolves clearly blue in daylight, which gives one watch two characters depending on where you are. On a case this flat the deep dial works as a single unbroken field, and the eye reads the profile rather than the width.
Everything else is stripped back. A Time Module Y121 quartz calibre drives three hands and nothing else — no date window, no second metal. Mineral glass protects the face, the case is water resistant to 3 ATM, and the 20mm bracelet is the most common lug width in watchmaking, so straps are easy to find.

Why You'll Love It
- 7.8mm on a 40mm case is genuinely slim. A watch this wide would normally sit 10 to 12mm deep, and every millimetre of that is what catches on a cuff.
- Dark blue does something black can't — it reads as formal without reading as severe, and it shifts between near-black and clear blue depending on the light.
- A 40mm dial is easy to read at a glance without leaning in, which is the practical argument for a larger case that nobody makes often enough.
- Blue on steel is the most versatile combination a men's watch can carry. It handles a suit and a weekend shirt without adjustment.
- Plain steel has nothing to wear through. There is no plating at the clasp or link edges to thin out over years of daily wear.
- Three hands and no date keeps the dial uncluttered. There is nothing to read past the time.
- A 20mm lug width is the most widely available strap size in watchmaking, so leather, mesh, rubber and fabric options are easy and cheap to source.
- The quartz movement runs on a battery and needs no winding, so it keeps accurate time whether you wear it daily or once a fortnight.
- 316L stainless steel is the same grade used in far more expensive watches — it resists corrosion and holds its finish against daily wear.
- The bracelet can be sized to fit at any City Chain store.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is 7.8mm actually slim for a 40mm watch?
Yes, noticeably. A 40mm quartz watch commonly sits between 10 and 12mm deep. At 7.8mm the Attimo is closer to dress-watch proportions on a full-size dial, which is why it slides under a cuff rather than pushing against it.
What is the difference between the -001 and the -002?
Only the dial colour. The -002 is dark blue, the -001 is silver white. Both sit on the same silver bracelet at the same price, with the same case, movement and water resistance. The -002 is the more formal of the two; the -001 is the more neutral.
Will 40mm fit my wrist?
40mm is the standard men's case size and suits most wrists from roughly 16cm to 20cm. The slim 7.8mm profile helps on a smaller wrist, since a flatter case looks less imposing than a thick one of the same diameter.
How does the Attimo compare to the other ellesse collections?
The Attimo is the men's line. At 40mm it is the largest ellesse and, at 7.8mm, the slimmest for its size. The other three are women's collections: the Aria is 34mm with a multi-function dial, the Luna is 30mm and rated to 5 ATM, and the Tiana is a compact 19.2mm by 26.4mm square. They are separate collections rather than colourways of each other.
Can I swim or shower with this watch?
No. At 3 ATM the Attimo handles rain, handwashing and everyday splashes, but it is not rated for swimming, showering or submersion.
Does the Attimo show the date?
No. It is a three-hand watch showing hours, minutes and seconds only, which is what keeps the dial clean.
Can I fit a different strap?
Easily. The lugs take a 20mm strap, which is the most common width in watchmaking — leather, mesh, rubber and fabric options are widely available and inexpensive. A brown leather strap in particular changes this watch considerably against the dark blue dial. Any City Chain store can fit one for you.
What movement does it use?
A Time Module Y121 quartz calibre. Quartz movements are battery-powered, need no winding, and hold time more consistently than a mechanical movement at the same price.
Can the bracelet be resized?
Yes. The 20mm 316L stainless steel bracelet can be adjusted to fit at any City Chain Singapore store. Bring the watch in and it will be sized while you wait.
What does 316L stainless steel mean?
316L is a marine-grade stainless steel with higher corrosion resistance than the more common 304 grade. On a watch bracelet it means better resistance to perspiration and moisture, and less risk of skin irritation.
Is mineral glass durable?
Mineral glass is heat-treated for hardness and handles everyday contact well — desk edges, door frames, keys. It is more scratch-resistant than acrylic and more shatter-resistant than sapphire, though sapphire resists scratches better still.
When does the battery need replacing?
Quartz watch batteries typically run for several years depending on use. When the watch stops or begins losing time, bring it to any City Chain outlet for replacement — doing it in-store keeps the case seal intact.
Who is ellesse?
ellesse is an Italian brand founded in Perugia in 1959 by Leonardo Servadio, the name taken from his initials. It began in skiwear and expanded through tennis and lifestyle over the following decades. City Chain holds the licence to design and sell watches under the ellesse name.
Does the Attimo work as a gift?
Dark blue is the safest dial colour to choose for someone else — it suits a formal wardrobe and a casual one equally. At 40mm it fits most wrists, the bracelet can be adjusted afterwards, and if he already has a daily watch, a 20mm leather strap turns this into a dressier second one for very little money.
