Cheap Alain Miller men's watch red dial 36.5 mm

Most basic quartz watches stop at a plain dial and a time display. This Alain Miller men's watch adds a red dial, a date window and luminescent hands, all in a compact 36.5 mm silver-tone case. It is also inexpensive, which makes it an easy first step into metal-bracelet watches.

Dial, date and night reading

The red dial is easy to read at a glance, with silver index marks that stand out against it. The hands carry a luminescent coating, so after exposure to light they stay visible in the dark. The date sits in a small window on the dial. Inside is a quartz movement (SL28), which needs no winding. Only the battery needs replacing from time to time.

Size, bracelet and build

The case is round, 36.5 mm in diameter and 10.5 mm thick, with a mineral glass. It stays discreet and suits slimmer wrists. The silver-tone metal bracelet is made of links, and you adjust it by removing one or more of them. Keep the spare links in case you need them later. Our watch size guide explains how to do it. The lug width is 20 mm, the measurement to know if you ever swap the bracelet. Total length is 23.5 cm and the watch weighs 67 g.

It is a watch for every day, at work or at the weekend. The metal bracelet keeps it simple to wear, and the red dial adds a touch of colour to an otherwise understated silver case.
