Watch for men Q&Q black leather strap baton markers 40 mm

The first thing worth noticing on this Q&Q is the glass: it is sapphire crystal, set into a round stainless steel case in a silver tone that measures 40 mm across and 11 mm thick. Inside is a Miyota 2415 quartz movement, and the result is a quietly well-built men's watch that does exactly what you ask of it.

An easy dial to read

The dial is black, with white markers that alternate between Arabic numerals and simple baton indexes. That mix means you never have to count lines to work out the time, a glance does it. A small window shows the date, which is the only extra function and the only one you really need day to day.

Movement and water resistance

The quartz movement keeps accurate time without any fuss. When the battery eventually runs down, a watchmaker can swap it and check the seals while the watch is on the bench. Water resistance is rated at 10 ATM, which is fine for a swim or a paddle near the surface, though not for diving. Keep the crown and any pushers untouched while the watch is wet.

Black leather strap

The strap is black leather, 20 mm wide, with a total length of 24.5 cm, and it fastens with a pin buckle that adjusts hole by hole. Leather softens and develops character the more you wear it, so try to keep it dry and it will reward you for years. If you like the look, there are more like it among our men's leather strap watches.

At 60 g and with a plain, uncluttered face, this is a watch you can put on in the morning and forget about. It suits a shirt and tie just as happily as a weekend jumper.
