At 12 mm thick and 58 g, this rectangular QBOS men's watch sits slim and light on the wrist, with a 24 cm strap that is 20 mm wide. It is also inexpensive, which makes it an easy pick for a first quartz watch or a spare for the week.
The white dial carries Arabic numerals and black baton markers, so you never have to squint or guess. The hands are coated with a luminous material. Let them soak up some light and they stay readable in a dark room.
Quartz means accurate time without winding or regular servicing. When the battery eventually fades, take the watch to a watchmaker, who can swap it and check the seals while it is open.
The case is black metal with a mineral glass cover, and its rectangular outline makes a change from the usual round shapes. Water resistance is limited to splashes, so rain or washing your hands is fine. Showers, baths and swimming are not.
The black faux leather strap is supple and wipes clean easily. It closes with a classic pin buckle clasp. If you like this look, you will find more in our men's watches with leather-style straps.
Black on white keeps it neutral, so it goes from the office to the weekend without any effort. Put it on in the morning and forget about it.
