Seen on the wrist, this Excellanc watch is all quiet confidence. The dial is black, the case is black, and the mesh strap carries the same shade right down to the clasp, so nothing competes for attention. It is the kind of watch that looks considered rather than loud.
The round case measures 38 mm across and 8 mm deep, which gives it a presence that is noticeable without being heavy. The metal case sits neatly on a stainless steel mesh strap that is 14 mm wide and flexible enough to follow the movement of your wrist. If you like this softer, fabric-like drape, you will find similar designs among our women's mesh strap watches.
Black is easy to live with. This one suits a smart day at the office and an evening out equally well, and it settles in with everyday outfits without any fuss. The analogue display keeps things simple and readable, and for a watch that is inexpensive it has a polished, grown-up look.
On the practical side, the watch runs on a quartz movement, reliable and straightforward, with the battery being the only thing to replace from time to time. The strap closes with a hook clasp, and the total length is 22.5 cm. The mineral glass over the dial helps guard it against the small knocks of daily wear. A simple wipe now and then will keep the finish looking its best.
