Most basic quartz watches stop at the time. This Alain Miller men's watch adds a date window and luminescent hands to a compact 36.5 mm round case with a green dial, and it is inexpensive for what it offers.
Inside is a quartz movement, the SL28. It keeps steady time, needs no winding and only asks for a new battery now and then. The display is analogue, with a small window on the dial showing the date.
The green dial is easy to read, and baton hour markers keep the layout clean. The hands carry a luminescent coating. After some exposure to light they remain visible in the dark, which is handy when you check the time at night. A mineral glass protects the dial.
The case measures 36.5 mm across and 10.5 mm thick, in a two-tone finish. That puts it on the smaller side for a men's watch, so it suits slimmer wrists and anyone who prefers a discreet look. The watch weighs 67 g.
The two-tone metal bracelet is 20 mm wide and 23.5 cm long overall. You adjust it by removing one or more links, and our watch size guide explains how. Keep the links you take out in case you need them later.
The understated styling and the green dial make it easy to wear every day, with a shirt at work or with something more casual at the weekend.
