Q&Q watch for men black dial 40 mm expanding bracelet

The first thing you notice is how quiet this watch is. A black dial sits inside a round, silver-tone metal case, with nothing on it that asks for attention. This is a Q&Q men's watch with a 40 mm case and a stainless steel expanding bracelet in the same silver tone.

A quiet black dial

The dark dial gives a clear, direct read of the time, with Arabic numerals on the scale and green hour markers. The hands and the markers are luminescent, so after some exposure to light they stay legible in the dark. It is a practical touch that doesn't change the restrained look.

Movement, case and glass

Inside is a Miyota 2035 quartz movement, which keeps reliable time without any winding. When the battery weakens, have it replaced by a watchmaker, who can also check the seals. The metal case measures 40 mm across and 9 mm thick, a standard size for a man's wrist, and the watch weighs 64 g. If you are unsure about fit, the watch size guide will help you decide. The mineral glass resists scratches better than plastic. Water resistance is 3 ATM, which covers rain and hand washing, but not showers, baths or swimming.

The expanding bracelet

The stainless steel bracelet stretches to slip over the hand, so there is no clasp to fasten. The width between the lugs is 20 mm, the measurement to know if you ever change the bracelet, and the total length is 18 cm.

Plain and unfussy, this watch goes with a shirt as easily as with a casual jumper, which makes it an easy one to reach for every morning.
