Where a basic quartz watch simply tells the time, this Just Watch adds a little more care: a silver dial with Arabic numerals and brown hour markers, set in a black metal case and finished with a dark brown leather strap. The model is called Benedict, and it keeps things quiet and legible rather than loud.
The round case measures 44 mm across and 11 mm thick, so it has a definite presence on the wrist. If your wrist is on the slim side, check that the case will not overhang it. A mineral glass covers the silver dial, which stays easy to read at a glance thanks to the clear Arabic numerals. Water resistance is rated at 5 ATM, which covers rain, splashes and hand washing. It is not meant for swimming.
Inside is a Miyota 2115 quartz movement with an analogue display, so the time stays reliable without any attention from you. When the battery eventually weakens, have it replaced by a watchmaker, who can also check the seals at the same time.
The strap is leather in dark brown and beige, and it softens and settles to your wrist over the days. Keep it away from water to help it last. It fastens with a pin buckle. The width between the lugs is 22 mm, worth noting if you ever want a spare strap, and the total length is 24 cm. If you like the look, you can browse more men's leather strap watches from the shop.
This is a watch that suits office outfits and relaxes just as easily into weekend wear, which makes it an easy choice for every day.
