Cheap men's watch Excellanc 38 mm

Most basic quartz watches stop at a plain dial and a standard buckle. This Excellanc is a little more considered: a two-tone case and bracelet, a white dial and an expandable fit that needs no clasp at all. It is also an inexpensive way to wear something quietly refined.

Design and movement

The round metal case measures 38 mm across and 9 mm in thickness, a modest size that sits comfortably on most men's wrists. The two-tone finish carries through to the stainless steel bracelet, giving the watch a restrained contrast without any fuss. The white dial is paired with Arabic numerals and analogue hands, so the time reads at a glance. The mineral glass protects the face. Inside is a PC21 quartz movement, accurate and free of any adjustment. All it asks is a new battery from time to time.

Fit on the wrist

The expandable bracelet slips over the hand and settles on the wrist, with no buckle to fasten. Total length is 20 cm, and the width between the lugs is 20 mm, the figure to note if you ever want to swap the bracelet. Because the links are metal, the watch feels solid yet light enough for long days.

If you like its clean lines, you will find similar pieces among our minimalist men's watches. For everyday wear, this one works equally well with a shirt at the office or a casual jumper at the weekend, never drawing attention to itself yet always looking tidy.
