Cheap Excellanc men's watch 40 mm blue dial faux leather

A deep blue dial against a silver-tone case and a brown strap is an easy combination to dress. It sits well with navy or grey tailoring, a white shirt, or a pair of dark jeans and a knit at the weekend. This is the Excellanc men's watch, a quartz model with a 40 mm round case, and at this price it is an inexpensive way to add some quiet colour to your wrist.

Dial and legibility

The blue dial is kept uncluttered, with simple line indexes marking the hours so the time reads at a glance. The hands are luminescent, so after some exposure to light they stay visible in the dark. Display is analogue, driven by a quartz movement that needs no winding or setting beyond the time itself. Only the battery needs replacing now and then.

Case and strap

The metal case measures 40 mm across and 7 mm thick, a standard size for a man's wrist and slim enough to slide under a shirt cuff. The strap is brown faux leather and wipes clean with a damp cloth. It closes with a pin buckle, and the lug width is 20 mm, which is the figure to note if you ever want to swap the strap. If you like this look, you will find more in our men's leather strap watches.

Day to day, it moves easily from the office to the weekend, and the brown strap keeps it comfortably smart with work outfits without looking formal.
