Akzent watch for men steel bracelet 46 mm

You are at your desk, and a quick glance at your wrist tells you the time without any squinting. That is the idea behind this Akzent men's watch: a black dial, Arabic numerals and silver-tone baton markers, and a 46 mm round case with a steel bracelet.

Case and dial

The case is silver-tone metal, 46 mm across and 9 mm thick, with a mineral glass cover. It is a large format, best suited to wider wrists, so check our watch size guide before you choose. Water resistance is 3 ATM, which covers rain and hand washing but not showers, baths or swimming. The watch weighs 129 g, and the lug width is 22 mm, useful to know if you ever fit a replacement strap.

Movement and bracelet

Inside is a PC32 quartz movement with an analogue display, giving an accurate time with no winding or regular servicing. When the battery runs out, a watchmaker can swap it and check the seals at the same time. The stainless steel bracelet has silver-tone links and a deployant clasp that closes with a click and helps stop the watch slipping off as you take it away from your wrist. The total length is 24 cm, and you can shorten it by removing links. Keep any you take out, as they may come in handy later.

With its steel bracelet and plain black dial, it is an easy watch to wear every day, at work during the week and out and about at the weekend.
