Design and comfort
The 44mm round stainless-steel case gives this watch a confident presence, while the 12mm thickness maintains a reasonably balanced profile. A black dial, silver case and black leather strap create a versatile look for work and weekends.
At 78g, it is relatively light for its size. The leather strap uses a pin buckle and has a stated 22mm lug width, providing a conventional and easy-to-understand fit specification.
Functions and everyday use
The quartz movement is a practical choice for dependable, uncomplicated timekeeping. The chronograph adds timing functionality, while the date, hour, minute and second displays cover the essentials.
Mineral glass is used over the dial, and the hands and markers are luminous for improved low-light legibility. Water resistance is rated at 50 metres / 5 ATM, which is appropriate for everyday splashes but should not be treated as a specification for dedicated water sports.
Research note: this BestBuysUK assessment is based on the manufacturer's published specifications and other reputable technical sources. Specifications and retailer availability can change, so verify critical details before purchase.
