Cheap Akzent watch for men 47 mm brown faux leather strap

Some watches ask for attention. This one just gets on with the day: a quartz movement that keeps time without winding or fuss, a silver dial you can read in a glance, and a brown faux leather strap that goes with a shirt on Monday and a hoodie on Saturday. It is an inexpensive way to get a proper large-format men's watch from Akzent.

Reading the time

The dial is silver with baton hour markers, so the hours stand out cleanly against the background. The display is analogue, and the mineral glass over it holds up to scratches better than plastic would. The quartz movement is the low-maintenance kind. When the battery eventually runs out, a watchmaker can swap it and check the seals at the same time.

Size and water resistance

The round case measures 47 mm across and 14 mm thick, so this is a watch with real presence. It suits larger wrists and anyone who likes a chunky piece. Water resistance is 3 ATM, which covers rain and hand washing. Take it off before a shower or a swim.

Strap and fit

The brown faux leather strap is soft, easy to wipe clean and closes with a classic pin buckle. The gap between the lugs is 24 mm, which is the figure to note if you ever fancy a change of strap, and the total length is 24 cm. If you like the look and want to compare, our range of men's leather strap watches is worth a browse.

Day to day, it works at the office, on a weekend walk or out for dinner. You strap it on, forget about it and still know the time whenever you glance down.
