Q&Q men's watch 42 mm red silicone strap

The case measures 42 mm across and 15 mm deep, which puts this Q&Q men's watch in the mainstream size range for a man's wrist: noticeable without being oversized, and with enough body to feel solid rather than flat. The strap is red silicone, 22 mm wide, set against a black case and a black dial.

Reading the time

The dial is black with white hour markers, so contrast is high and the time is clear at a glance. Both the hands and the hour markers are luminescent. After a period in the light they stay legible in the dark, which is useful at night or in a dim room.

Case and water resistance

The round case is made of plastic, which keeps the weight down. The crystal is synthetic: it absorbs knocks well but scratches more easily than mineral glass. Water resistance is 10 ATM, enough for swimming and bathing at the surface, though not for diving. Avoid pressing the crown or pushers while the watch is wet or underwater.

Movement

Inside is a quartz movement with an analogue display. It needs no winding or adjusting, and the only upkeep is replacing the battery from time to time.

Strap and fit

The silicone strap copes with sweat and water and rinses clean in seconds. It fastens with a pin buckle, adjustable hole by hole, and the total length is 25 cm. If you like this kind of fit and finish, you can browse more men's silicone strap watches in the shop.

This is a watch built for movement, whether that means sport, a hike or an active weekend. It is just as comfortable as an everyday watch from the office to Saturday morning.
