Looking for a gift for a man who just wants a watch that works, looks tidy and never needs fiddling with? This Q&Q men's watch with a two-tone expanding bracelet is an easy answer. It has a 40 mm round case, a white dial and a quartz movement, and it goes on in a second.
The white dial keeps things clear, with Arabic numerals and black hour markers so you read the time without thinking. The display is analogue, nothing more complicated than that.
The metal case is two-tone and measures 40 mm across, a standard size for a man's wrist, and 9 mm thick. If you are unsure about fit, the watch size guide will help you decide. The crystal is mineral glass, which stands up to scratches better than plastic. Water resistance is 3 ATM, so splashes are fine, but take it off before a shower or a swim. The watch weighs 64 g.
A Miyota 2035 quartz movement keeps the time. It is accurate, needs no winding or setting routine, and all you do is change the battery when it runs down.
The stainless steel bracelet is also two-tone and expands, so you slip it over the hand with no clasp to fasten. The width between the lugs is 20 mm, the figure to note if you ever fit a different strap, and the total length is 18 cm.
Understated and light enough to forget about, it suits office days, weekends and everything in between.
