Elite men's watch black steel bracelet 46 mm

The first thing you notice is the size: a round 46 mm case in rose gold-tone metal, set against a black dial and a black stainless steel bracelet. It is a quartz men's watch with an analogue display, and it makes a deliberate, substantial statement on the wrist.

Case, dial and movement

The case measures 46 mm across and 14 mm in height, so this is a large, solidly built watch. It suits wider wrists or anyone who likes a big watch. If you are unsure how it will sit on your wrist, the watch size guide explains how to judge case diameter before you choose. The black dial uses baton hour markers, which keep the face easy to read at a glance without crowding it. A mineral glass covers the dial and protects it well in daily use. Inside, the quartz movement keeps time with no winding. When the battery weakens, have it replaced by a watchmaker, who can also check the seals.

Bracelet and water resistance

The black stainless steel bracelet is made of links and is sized by removing one or more of them. Keep any links you take out, as they may be useful later. A deployant clasp closes the bracelet easily and keeps the watch on your wrist when you open it. The width between the lugs is 24 mm, the measurement to know if you ever want to change the strap, and the total length is 23.5 cm. Water resistance is rated at 3 ATM, which covers splashes. It is not intended for showers, baths or swimming.

On the wrist, the metal bracelet and dark dial work equally well with office wear or a pair of jeans, so the watch fits easily into a regular weekly rotation.
