Just Watch men's watch leather strap 42 mm silver-tone dial

The train is late and the platform is half dark. You tilt your wrist and the Just Watch tells you the time straight away: a silver-tone dial, slim line indexes and a small date window that settles any argument about what day it is. This is a men's quartz watch with a 42 mm round case and a black leather strap.

Reading it, day and night

The silver-tone dial keeps things uncluttered, so the hands stand out against it. Both the hands and the hour indexes carry a luminescent coating. Once they have caught some light, they stay readable when the room goes dark, which is handy on a late walk home or at the cinema when you check the time. The date sits in its own window. Inside, a quartz movement does the work with no winding and no fuss. When the battery runs down, you simply replace it.

Case, strap and fit

The case is stainless steel in a silver tone, 11 mm thick and fitted with a mineral glass. At 42 mm it suits most men's wrists without looking oversized. Water resistance is rated at 5 ATM, so rain, splashes and hand washing are no problem. Swimming is best left to another watch.

The black leather strap is 22 mm wide and 23.5 cm long overall. It closes with a pin buckle, adjustable hole by hole, and it softens and takes on character as you wear it. Keep it dry to make it last. If you like the look, browse our other men's leather strap watches.

Black leather and a silver-tone case sit comfortably with a shirt or a suit, and just as easily with a jumper and jeans at the weekend. It is a watch you can put on in the morning and forget about until you need it.
