All black from case to strap, this Q&Q watch goes with almost anything: a grey hoodie, a navy work shirt, jeans and trainers, even a t-shirt on a hot day. The round 42 mm case sits at 11 mm thick, and it is a quartz watch with a plain analogue display.
The dial is black, so the hands stand out and you get the time without squinting. Arabic numerals and baton indexes work together, which means you never have to count marks around the dial. The hands and indexes are luminescent: give them some light and they stay readable once it gets dark.
The case is plastic, and the whole watch weighs 38 g, so you soon forget it is on your wrist. The crystal is synthetic. It takes knocks well, though it will scratch more easily than mineral glass. Water resistance is 10 ATM, which covers the pool and swimming at the seaside, at the surface rather than diving. Keep the crown and pushers untouched while it is wet.
The black plastic strap is 22 mm wide, 24 cm long in total, and a rinse under the tap is all it needs after a run or a swim. It closes with a pin buckle, adjusted hole by hole until it sits just right. If you like the look and want to compare, our men's watches with silicone straps are worth a browse.
The quartz movement keeps accurate time without any upkeep. When the battery runs low, take it to a watchmaker, who can also check the seals.
Gym sessions, jogging, a weekend of DIY: this watch is built to keep moving with you. It is just as comfortable at the office, so you can wear it every day without a second thought.
