Just Watch men's watch green leather strap 42 mm

Most basic quartz watches stop at telling the time. This Just Watch goes a little further: a green dial with a date window, hands that glow in the dark and a 42 mm round case in two-tone metal, all on a green leather strap. It is the sort of men's watch that looks like it was chosen rather than just picked up.

What you see on the wrist

The green dial is easy to read at a glance, with Arabic numerals so there is never any doubt about the hour. The date sits in a small window, and the luminescent hands keep showing the time in the dark once they have had some light. The case is 11 mm thick and has a mineral glass, which suits most men's wrists without feeling bulky. Inside is a quartz movement, reliable and undemanding. Apart from a new battery every so often, you simply wear it.

Strap, clasp and everyday care

The green leather strap softens and develops character as you wear it, so keep it away from water to help it last. It closes with a pin buckle that adjusts hole by hole, and the full length is 23.5 cm. The distance between the lugs is 22 mm, worth noting if you ever want a spare strap. Water resistance is 5 ATM, enough for rain and splashes, though not for swimming. If you like the look of leather, you can compare it with other men's leather strap watches in the shop.

It is an easy watch to live with every day, equally at home at the office and at the weekend, and the green gives you a bit of colour without shouting about it.
