Cheap QBOS men's watch metal case 13 mm thick quartz

Most basic quartz watches are small and quiet. This QBOS is the opposite: a 46 mm round metal case, 13 mm thick, that gives your wrist some real presence, and it is inexpensive too. It is a men's watch for people who like to feel what they are wearing.

A case with some character

At 46 mm across, this is a large-diameter watch, so it suits wider wrists best. If you are not sure how that will sit on you, our watch size guide is a good place to check before you decide. The 13 mm thickness adds to the sense of volume, and the dial is protected by a mineral glass.

Easy to read, easy to live with

The analogue display uses Arabic numerals, so there is no squinting or guessing at a glance. Inside, the quartz movement keeps the time accurately with no winding and no fuss. When the battery eventually runs out, a watchmaker can replace it and check the seals while the case is open.

Strap and clasp

The strap is faux leather, 22 mm wide and 26 cm long in total, closed with a classic pin buckle. It wipes clean with a damp cloth, which keeps upkeep simple. If you enjoy the look, you can browse other men's leather-strap watches in the shop for comparison.

Day to day, the faux leather strap sits comfortably with a shirt or a suit, yet the bold case keeps it relaxed enough for weekends. Pop it on and forget about it.
