Just Watch men's watch 42 mm anthracite mesh strap

You are halfway through a coffee and glancing at your wrist before the first meeting. On the Just Watch 42 mm in anthracite, that glance takes no effort at all. The dial is the same dark grey as the case, the hands stand out clearly against it, and Arabic numerals alternate with baton markers in silver so there is never any doubt about the time.

What sits on your wrist

The case is metal, 42 mm across and 12 mm thick, a size that suits most men's wrists without looking oversized. The crystal is mineral glass and the whole watch weighs 65 g. Inside is a Miyota 2315 quartz movement with an analogue display: accurate, nothing to wind and nothing to set, apart from a battery change every so often. Water resistance is 3 ATM, which covers rain and hand washing. Take it off before a shower or a swim.

The mesh strap

The anthracite stainless steel mesh strap moulds itself to the wrist and lets the air through, which you notice on a warm afternoon at your desk. It closes with a hook clasp. The width between the lugs is 20 mm, the figure to keep in mind if you ever want to try another strap, and the full length is 23 cm. If you like the look, there are more in our range of men's mesh strap watches.

From the morning commute to dinner out, this is a watch that stays quietly in the background. The all-anthracite colouring goes with a shirt, a knit or a jacket, and the metal bracelet means you simply put it on and forget about it.
