Watch for men Q&Q black dial

Looking for a present for a man who is always on the move, or just treating yourself? This Q&Q men's watch is an easy one to wrap: a black dial, a black case and a black strap, with a 43 mm round case that has real presence without being fussy.

Easy to read, day or night

The black dial keeps reading quick, even when you glance down mid-stride. Arabic numerals and baton markers alternate, so there is no guessing which hour you are looking at, and the markers are green. The hands and the markers both carry a luminescent coating, so after some time in the light they stay legible in the dark.

Built to be knocked about

The case is black plastic, which keeps the weight down, and it is 12 mm thick. The crystal is synthetic: light and good at absorbing knocks, though it will scratch more easily than mineral glass. Water resistance is 10 ATM, so pool and sea swims at the surface are fine, but it is not a diving watch. Keep the crown and pushers untouched while it is in the water.

Quartz inside

The movement is quartz, reliable and undemanding. When the battery runs out, you simply replace it. The display is analogue, with no extras to learn.

Fit and strap

The strap is black and closes with a pin buckle. It is 23.5 mm wide and 24.5 cm long in total. The 43 mm case suits medium to large wrists best.

It is light enough to wear from morning to night, at work or at the weekend. If you like the look and want to compare, have a browse through our men's sports watches.
