Akzent men's watch brown dial 42 mm metal bracelet

A morning meeting is about to start, and you glance down at your wrist: the brown dial reads clearly, the baton hour markers keeping it calm and uncluttered. That is the appeal of this Akzent men's watch, a quartz piece with a 42 mm round case and a metal bracelet.

Case, glass and movement

The case is silver-tone metal, 42 mm across and 10 mm thick, which is a standard size for a man's wrist. The glass is mineral, which stands up to scratches better than plastic does. Inside sits a PC32 quartz movement with an analogue display, so there is nothing to wind or set apart from changing the battery now and then. The watch is water resistant to 3 ATM, which means splashes are fine, while showering, bathing and swimming are not. It weighs 120 g.

The bracelet

The links combine silver and gold-tone finishes, and the bracelet is 22 mm wide with a total length of 22 cm. It closes with a clip clasp. To shorten it, you simply remove links, and our watch size guide explains how. Keep any links you take out, as they can be useful again later.

The metal bracelet suits a shirt and tie as readily as a pair of jeans, so this watch can go with you through the working week and into the weekend without any change of plan.
