Cheap Excellanc men's watch 40 mm metal bracelet

At 40 mm across and 11 mm thick, this round Excellanc sits right in the zone most men find comfortable: big enough to read at a glance, slim enough to slide under a shirt cuff. It is a quartz men's watch with a silver-tone metal case, a white dial and a matching metal bracelet, and it is inexpensive without looking it.

Size and fit on the wrist

Not sure whether 40 mm suits your wrist? Our watch size guide walks you through it, and also explains how to remove links to adjust the bracelet. Keep any links you take out in case you need them later. The bracelet is 20 mm wide and 22.5 cm long in total, and the butterfly clasp opens out symmetrically so it is easy to put on and take off.

Reading the dial

The white dial keeps things clear. Arabic numerals alternate with baton markers, so you read the time without counting marks, and the silver-tone markers stand out against the white. The hands are luminescent: let them soak up some light and you can still make them out in the dark. A small window shows the date.

Movement and upkeep

The quartz movement keeps accurate time without any fuss. When the battery runs out, a watchmaker can replace it and check the seals while the case is open.

Case and finish

The case is metal in a silver tone, with matt and polished surfaces side by side for a bit of contrast. A mineral glass covers the dial and copes well with daily knocks.

It is an easy watch to wear every day, at the office or at the weekend, and the silver-tone bracelet goes with almost anything in your wardrobe.
