Just Watch men's watch 46 mm grey dial black steel bracelet

Looking for a gift for a man who likes his watches big and his style understated? This Just Watch men's watch, the Owen, pairs a 46 mm black steel case with a grey dial and a matching black steel bracelet. It runs on a VD57 quartz movement, so the time is simply there whenever he glances down.

Reading the dial

The grey dial is easy on the eye, and the combination of Arabic numerals and baton markers means you read the time at a glance without counting lines. The markers are blue, a small splash of colour against all that grey and black. The glass is mineral, which stands up to scratches better than plastic.

Size and build

At 46 mm across and 12 mm thick, this is a large, round case, best suited to wide wrists or anyone who enjoys a chunky watch. It is made of stainless steel, which resists corrosion, and finished in black. Water resistance is 3 ATM, which covers splashes. Showering, bathing and swimming are not on the menu. If you are unsure how a 46 mm case will sit, our watch size guide explains how to judge it against your wrist.

Bracelet and fit

The black steel bracelet is made of links, and you adjust the length by removing one or more of them. Keep any spare links, as they may come in handy later. A deployant clasp closes it with no fuss and keeps the watch on your wrist when you open it. The width between the lugs is 24 mm, the figure to note if you ever want to swap the bracelet, and the total length is 24.5 cm.

Looking after the movement

When the battery eventually runs low, take the watch to a watchmaker, who can replace it and check the seals at the same time.

It is a watch for every day, equally at home at the office and at the weekend, and the metal bracelet makes it easy to wear from morning to night.
