Cheap Akzent men's watch faux leather strap 42 mm

You are rinsing the last coffee cup and you glance at your wrist to see whether you can make the train. With a blue dial and a matching blue strap, this Akzent men's watch is easy to read at a glance, and it is inexpensive too. It is a quartz watch with a round 42 mm case.

Reading the time

The dial is blue and the numerals are Arabic, so there is no squinting or second-guessing, whether you are in a bright office or on a platform in the morning. The display is analogue, with nothing to set up beyond the time itself.

Movement and case

Inside is a PC32 quartz movement. It is dependable and asks very little of you: when the battery runs down, you simply replace it. The metal case is 42 mm across and 9 mm thick, with a mineral glass front. That diameter suits most men's wrists, and if you are unsure, the watch size guide will help you decide. Water resistance is 3 ATM, which covers splashes. Take it off before a shower or a swim.

Strap and clasp

The strap is blue faux leather, 20 mm wide and 23 cm long in total. It is soft against the skin and easy to look after, and a quick wipe is usually all it needs. It closes with a pin buckle, so you can fasten it at the hole that feels right.

It is a watch for ordinary days: the commute, the desk, a Saturday walk or a meal out. Put it on in the morning and you can forget about it until you need the time.
