Cheap Aerostar men's watch faux leather strap 45 mm

Most watches at this price keep to a plain three-hand layout. This Aerostar men's watch is more considered: a brown dial that alternates Arabic numerals with baton markers, set in a 45 mm round case with silver-tone finish, on a brown faux leather strap. It is also inexpensive, which makes it an easy way to add a brown-toned watch to your rotation.

Reading the dial

The brown dial gives decent legibility, and the mix of Arabic numerals and baton markers means you read the time at a glance rather than counting marks. The markers are silver-tone, matching the case. The display is analogue and the hands are driven by a quartz movement, which is accurate and needs no winding or setting beyond the time itself. The only upkeep is replacing the battery from time to time. A mineral glass protects the dial in daily use.

Size and build

The metal case measures 45 mm across and 9 mm thick. That is a noticeable size, so if you have a slim wrist, check that the case does not overhang it before choosing this one. The thickness keeps it from feeling bulky despite the diameter.

Strap and clasp

The strap is brown faux leather, 20 mm wide and 24 cm long in total, and it closes with a standard pin buckle. A damp cloth is enough to clean it. If you like the look and want to compare other options, our selection of men's leather strap watches sits alongside this one.

In everyday wear, the brown strap and silver-tone case pair easily with a shirt or a suit, and the quartz movement means you can simply put it on and forget about it.
