The first thing you notice is the red dial. Set against the gold-tone case and bracelet, it gives this Alain Miller men's watch a warm, confident look without being loud. It is a round quartz watch with an analogue display and a 36.5 mm case, and at its price you can fairly call it an inexpensive way to wear some colour.
The red background makes the time quick to read, even on the move. Gold-tone baton hour markers keep the dial tidy, and a small window shows the date. The hands are coated with a luminescent material, so once they have been charged by light you can still read them in the dark.
Inside is an SL28 quartz movement, which keeps the time steady without any winding or fuss. When the battery runs out, a watchmaker can replace it and check the seals while the watch is open.
The metal bracelet is made of links and is 20 mm wide, with a total length of 23.5 cm. To shorten it, you remove links, and our watch size guide explains how. Keep any links you take out, as they may come in handy later.
The case is gold-tone metal, 36.5 mm across and 10.5 mm thick, so it slides easily under a shirt cuff and suits slimmer wrists. The mineral glass resists scratches better than plastic would. The whole watch weighs 67 g.
It is a simple, versatile piece. The metal bracelet works as well with an office outfit as with jeans and a T-shirt, which makes it an easy choice for everyday wear.
