If you are looking for a gift for a man who wears a watch every day, this Just Watch model (named Elia) is a straightforward choice: a blue dial, a silver-tone steel bracelet and a 41 mm round case.
Inside is a Miyota 2115 quartz movement, which keeps time without any winding or fuss. When the battery runs flat, a watchmaker can replace it and check the seals at the same time. The case is silver-coloured metal, 41 mm across and 10 mm thick, with a mineral glass that resists scratches better than plastic. The silver-tone baton hour markers stand out clearly against the blue dial, so the time is easy to read. Water resistance is 3 ATM, which covers rain and hand washing. Take it off before a shower or a swim. The watch weighs 124 g. If you are unsure whether 41 mm suits the wrist you are buying for, the watch size guide explains how to choose.
The stainless steel bracelet is made of links and is 22 mm wide, with a total length of 23 cm. It is sized by removing one or more links (the method is in the size guide), and it is worth keeping any links you take out. A deployant clasp closes it with a click and lowers the risk of the watch slipping from your hand when you take it off.
The metal bracelet and silver case sit comfortably with office clothes, and just as easily with a pair of jeans at the weekend.
