Men's watch Q&Q gold-tone steel bracelet 40 mm

If you want a watch that reads at a glance and asks nothing of you, this Q&Q is a sensible pick. It is a men's quartz watch with an analogue display, a white dial, a date window and a gold-tone steel bracelet.

Dial and movement

The white dial gives the hands plenty of contrast, and the Arabic numerals leave no room for doubt when you check the time. A small window shows the date. Inside is a GM12 quartz movement, so there is nothing to wind or set beyond the time and date. When the battery runs out, you simply replace it.

Case and size

The round metal case in a gold tone measures 40 mm across and 8 mm thick, a standard size for a man's wrist. If you are unsure how that will sit on yours, the watch size guide explains how to measure. A mineral glass protects the dial in daily use. Water resistance is rated at 3 ATM, which covers splashes, so take the watch off before a shower or a swim. It weighs 62 g.

Bracelet and clasp

The bracelet is stainless steel in a gold-tone finish and closes with a hook clasp. Total length is 23.5 cm. The distance between the lugs is 18 mm, worth noting if you ever want to fit a replacement strap or bracelet.

It works as an everyday watch, equally at home at the office and at the weekend, and it sits well alongside other gold-tone pieces in your collection.
