Cheap Excellanc men's watch 41 mm black metal bracelet

The case and bracelet of this Excellanc are both black metal, so the watch feels solid and slightly weighty on the wrist, at 93 g. It is a men's quartz watch with a round 41 mm case, a white dial and a date window. At this price it is an inexpensive way to get a full metal watch.

Metal case and finish

The round case measures 41 mm across and 11 mm thick, a standard size for a man's wrist. Matt and polished surfaces alternate, which breaks up the black without making it shiny all over. The mineral glass resists scratches better than plastic would.

Reading the dial

The white dial gives strong contrast against the black hands. Arabic numerals alternate with baton markers, so you can read the time at a glance without counting marks. The hands carry a luminescent coating: once they have been exposed to light, they stay legible in the dark. A small window shows the date.

Quartz movement

Inside is a quartz movement, a dependable choice that asks very little of you. The only upkeep is replacing the battery from time to time.

Bracelet and fit

The black link bracelet is 20 mm wide and 23 cm long in total. To shorten it, you remove links, and our watch size guide explains how. Keep any links you take out in case you want to refit them later. The butterfly clasp opens on both sides, which makes it easy to put on and take off.

This watch is made for daily wear. The black metal bracelet works with a shirt and trousers at the office just as well as with jeans at the weekend.
