You glance at your wrist halfway through a meeting, and the time needs to be clear in under a second. That is the job of this Excellanc men's watch, a quartz model with a white dial and a round 38 mm case. It is also an inexpensive watch, which makes it an easy one to add to a rotation.
The dial is white with Arabic numerals and black hour markers, so there is little to interpret. The display is analogue. Inside is a PC21 quartz movement, which keeps steady time without winding or adjusting. When the battery runs out, a watchmaker can replace it and check the seals at the same time.
The case is metal in a gold-tone finish, 38 mm across and 9 mm thick, a standard size for a man's wrist that sits slim under a shirt cuff. The crystal is mineral glass and the whole watch weighs 44 g. If you like this finish, you can browse more gold-tone men's watches in the shop.
The bracelet is stainless steel, also gold-tone, and it is an expandable type with no clasp to fasten. You simply slide it over the hand and onto the wrist. Its total length is 20 cm, and the width between the lugs is 20 mm, which is the figure to note if you ever want to fit a replacement strap.
Plain and light, it is a watch that disappears on the wrist during a normal day, from the desk to the evening, while the white dial keeps the time easy to read.
