Looking for a present for a father, a brother or a friend who likes things simple? This Alain Miller is a classic men's watch with a round case, a white dial and a black strap, and at this price it is inexpensive enough to give without a second thought.
The white dial gives the hands plenty of contrast, and the Arabic numerals mean there is never any doubt about the time. The hour markers are gold-tone, which adds a little warmth to an otherwise restrained face. It has an analogue display, nothing more and nothing less.
The round case is stainless steel in a gold-tone finish, so everyday sweat and damp are not a worry. The mineral glass stands up to scratches better than plastic would. Water resistance is limited to splashes: a shower of rain or washing your hands is fine, but showering, bathing and swimming are not. It weighs 45 g, light enough to forget on the wrist.
The black faux leather strap wipes clean with a damp cloth. It closes with a pin buckle and adjusts hole by hole, so the fit is easy to get right. Total length is 23.9 cm.
The gold-tone details give it some character, while the black strap keeps it smart enough for a shirt or a suit. If you are comparing options, you can browse more men's leather strap watches in the shop. For a gift, this one is easy to wrap and easy to wear straight away.
