Cheap Alain Miller men's watch gold-tone metal 36.5 mm

Gold-tone everywhere: case, dial and bracelet all share the same warm colour, so this Alain Miller men's watch reads as one piece the moment you pick it up. It is a quartz model with an analogue display, a round 36.5 mm case and a date window, and at its price it is an inexpensive way to add a bit of shine to your wrist.

What you see on the dial

The gold-tone dial keeps the time easy to read at a glance, with baton hour markers that organise the face without crowding it. The hands are luminescent, so after some time in the light they stay visible in the dark. A small window shows the date. The movement is a quartz SL28, which keeps steady time without any winding. When the battery runs out, a watchmaker can swap it and check the seals at the same time.

Case and bracelet

The case is gold-tone metal, 36.5 mm across and 10.5 mm thick, with a mineral glass front. That size slips easily under a shirt cuff and suits slimmer wrists. 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 the links you take out, as they may come in handy later.

It is a watch for every day, from the office to the weekend. The gold tones do get noticed, so wear it when you want your wrist to have a little presence without any fuss.
