Cheap Excellanc watch for men black dial 35 mm

If you have a slim wrist, or you simply prefer a watch that stays out of the way, this Excellanc men's watch is worth a look. The round case measures 35 mm across and 8 mm thick, with a black dial, a silver-tone case and a stainless steel bracelet in the same finish. It runs on a quartz movement and is an inexpensive way to get a tidy, understated everyday watch. If you like this restrained look, you may also want to browse our minimalist men's watches.

Reading the time and keeping it running

The black dial has Arabic numerals, so you can read the time at a glance, even when you are on the move. The analogue display is simple and quick to take in. Inside, the quartz movement keeps the time accurate without any servicing. When the battery eventually weakens, have it replaced by a watchmaker, who can also check the seals while the case is open. A mineral glass protects the dial day to day.

How it sits on the wrist

The bracelet is a stretch (expandable) type, so you slip it on without fiddling with a clasp. Its total length is 23 cm, and the width between the lugs is 18 mm, which is the figure to note if you ever want a replacement strap. The whole watch weighs 48 g, and at 35 mm it slides easily under a shirt cuff and suits smaller wrists well.

The silver-tone metal bracelet works as well with office clothes as with a pair of jeans, which makes it an easy watch to reach for every morning without thinking about it.
