Cheap Excellanc men's watch 38 mm black dial

Look closely at the case of this Excellanc and you will find a slim 7 mm profile in a round, gold-tone metal shell, 38 mm across. It is a quartz watch with an analogue display, made for men who like their kit simple, and it is inexpensive too.

A dial you can read at a glance

The black dial carries Arabic numerals, so there is no squinting or guessing. The hands are luminescent: once they have caught some light, they stay visible when the room goes dark. Black with gold-tone accents keeps the look tidy rather than flashy.

Quartz inside

The quartz movement keeps steady time without any winding or fuss. When the battery eventually runs out, a watchmaker can swap it and check the seals while the case is open.

Strap and clasp

The strap is black synthetic leather, soft against the wrist and easy to wipe clean. It is 20 mm wide with a total length of 24 cm, and it closes with a pin buckle that you adjust hole by hole until the fit feels right. If you like this style, you can browse more men's watches on a leather-look strap in the same family.

Size and toughness

A 38 mm case is a standard, comfortable size for a man's wrist, and at 7 mm thick it slides under a shirt cuff without catching. The mineral glass resists scratches better than plastic would.

It is a low-key watch that sits quietly on the wrist, whether you wear it with a shirt at work or with a jumper and jeans at the weekend.
