You are on the platform with a coffee in one hand, and you need the time without fumbling for your phone. This Q&Q men's watch is built for that kind of glance: a black dial, silver-tone hands and markers, and a 36 mm round case in stainless steel. If you like this look, our men's mesh strap watches include other options.
The black background gives good contrast, so the time reads quickly even when you are moving. Arabic numerals alternate with baton markers, which means you do not have to count marks to know where you are. The markers are silver-tone. The display is analogue.
Inside is a Miyota 2035 quartz movement, which keeps steady time without any winding or adjusting. When the battery eventually runs down, have it replaced by a watchmaker, who can check the seals at the same time.
The case measures 36 mm across and 8 mm thick, a discreet size that suits slimmer wrists. It is stainless steel, so sweat and everyday damp are not a concern. The sapphire glass is very resistant to scratches. Water resistance is rated at 5 ATM, which covers rain, splashes and handwashing, but the watch is not meant for swimming. It weighs 64 g.
The silver-tone stainless steel mesh strap follows the shape of the wrist and lets air through. It closes with a hook clasp. The distance between the lugs is 18 mm, worth noting if you ever want a replacement strap, and the total length is 23 cm.
The metal finish works with a shirt and tie at the office just as easily as with jeans at the weekend, so one watch can cover the whole week without much thought.
