Plenty of simple quartz watches tell the time and little else. This Q&Q men's watch earns its place by getting the small things right: a crisp white dial with Arabic numerals, a 40 mm case that sits neatly on most wrists, and a profile only 8 mm thick, so it slips under a shirt cuff without a fuss.
The white dial keeps the face clean and bright. Arabic numerals mean there is no squinting or guessing, whether you are checking the time in a meeting or on the platform. The display is analogue, in the classic way.
The round case is made of silver-coloured metal and measures 40 mm across, a standard size for a man's watch. The glass is mineral. Water resistance is rated at 3 ATM, which means you can wear it in the rain and while washing your hands. Showers, baths and swimming are not for this one, so take it off first.
Inside is a quartz movement, dependable and undemanding. There is nothing to wind. When the battery runs down, you simply have it replaced and carry on.
The black faux leather strap wipes clean with a damp cloth, which suits daily life. It fastens with a pin buckle clasp and has a total length of 26 cm. The strap is 18 mm wide between the lugs, so keep that number in mind if you ever fancy a spare strap in another style.
This is a watch to put on in the morning and forget about, from the office to the weekend. If you like the look of it, you will find more like it among our men's leather strap watches.
