The first thing you notice on this Excellanc is the finish of the strap: a soft brown synthetic leather band closed by a classic pin buckle, set against a round black metal case. It is a men's watch with a quartz movement (PC21) and a 35 mm case, and at this price it is honestly inexpensive for something so tidy.
The case is metal in black, 35 mm across and 7 mm thick, so it sits flat and keeps a low profile under a cuff. The dial is black too, with Arabic numerals and white hour markers that make the time easy to read at a glance. The glass is mineral, and the whole watch weighs 23 g, which you will barely feel after a few minutes. If you are unsure whether 35 mm suits your wrist, our watch size guide will help you decide.
The PC21 quartz movement keeps steady time without any winding or fuss. When the battery runs low, have it replaced by a watchmaker, who can also check the seals while the watch is open.
The brown synthetic leather strap is supple, 18 mm wide and 24 cm long in total, and it is simple to look after with a quick wipe. It fastens with a pin buckle, so you can adjust it to the hole that feels right on your wrist.
This is a watch for ordinary days, whether that means the office, a weekend walk or a casual dinner. Its plain black and brown look goes with most outfits, and it asks nothing of you except to be worn.
