Cheap Excellanc watch for men gold-tone expanding bracelet

If you are looking for a gift for a man who wears a watch every day, this Excellanc quartz model is a straightforward pick, and it is inexpensive without looking plain. It pairs a white dial with a gold-tone metal case and a matching expanding bracelet.

Dial and date

The white dial gives the hands good contrast, and the Arabic numerals mean you read the time at a glance. The hour markers are black. A small window shows the date, which is the only function on this analogue watch, so there is nothing to set or decode beyond the time itself.

Movement and upkeep

Inside is a quartz movement that keeps accurate time without any winding. When the battery runs out, a watchmaker can replace it and check the seals while the case is open. The watch has a mineral glass over the dial, which holds up well to daily knocks.

Size and fit

The round case measures 40 mm across and 9 mm thick, a standard size for a man's wrist. If you are unsure about proportions, the watch size guide explains how to judge them. The stainless steel bracelet is gold-tone and expands, so it slides over the hand with no clasp to fasten. It is 21 cm long in total, with 20 mm between the lugs, a figure worth noting if you ever want to fit a replacement strap. The watch weighs 51 g.

It suits an ordinary week, from the office to the weekend, and the gold-tone finish dresses up a casual outfit without any fuss. For other options in the same colour, see our gold-tone men's watches.
