The first thing you notice on this Pierrini men's watch is the steel: a stainless steel bracelet in two tones, with a metal case to match and a gold-toned dial. It has some weight to it, and it reads as a proper, solid piece on the wrist. The case measures 45 mm across and 11.5 mm thick, with quartz movement, an analogue display and chronograph function.
The gold-toned dial is easy to read, and slim line indexes divide it without crowding it. The hands and indexes are luminescent, so after some time in the light they stay visible in the dark. A window shows the date. The chronograph is operated with the pushers: start, stop and reset to zero. The case glass is mineral, which stands up to scratches better than plastic.
At 45 mm, this is a watch with real presence. It suits medium to large wrists best, and our watch size guide will help you judge the fit before you choose. Water resistance is 3 ATM, which covers splashes. It is not meant for showers, baths or swimming. As for the quartz movement, it keeps reliable time without any attention. When the battery weakens, have it replaced by a watchmaker, who can check the seals at the same time.
The two-tone bracelet is made of links and is 22 mm wide, with a total length of 22.5 cm. You adjust it by removing one or more links, and it is worth keeping any you take out. The butterfly clasp opens on both sides, so it slips on and off easily.
With a steel bracelet rather than a leather strap, this watch takes daily wear in its stride, from the working week to the weekend.
