Men's watch Akzent 37 mm white dial expanding bracelet

A white dial set in a silver-tone case is about as easy to dress as a watch gets. It sits quietly under a crisp shirt cuff, looks right with a navy knit or a grey suit, and does not argue with a plain T-shirt and jeans either. This is the Akzent 37 mm, a quartz men's watch with a stainless steel expanding bracelet, and it is one of the more restrained pieces in our range of minimalist men's watches.

Dial and movement

The white dial carries Arabic numerals with silver-tone hour markers, so the time reads at a glance with no hunting for the hands. Inside is a quartz movement with an analogue display. It keeps accurate time without any winding or adjusting, and the only upkeep is replacing the battery from time to time. The crystal is mineral glass.

Case and water resistance

The round metal case measures 37 mm across and 9 mm thick, which suits slimmer wrists and slips easily beneath a shirt cuff. The whole watch weighs 53 g. Water resistance is 3 ATM, enough for rain and washing your hands. Take it off before a shower or a swim.

The expanding bracelet

The stainless steel bracelet stretches over the hand and sits on the wrist with no clasp to fasten. Its total length is 20 cm, and the width between the lugs is 18 mm, the measurement to note if you ever want to change the bracelet.

Plain, light and dependable, it is the sort of watch you put on in the morning and rarely think about again, whether the day involves an office, a dinner or a long walk.
