NEMUNAS Perkunas Black and Silver Quartz Watch

The NEMUNAS Perkunas sets a black multi-display dial in a brushed silver-tone stainless steel case on an integrated bracelet, run by a Japanese quartz movement. Calendar and moon-phase displays share the dial. One unit in stock.

Why It Stands Out

• Nine millimetres thick on a 40 mm case. Multi-display quartz watches usually get chunky trying to fit everything in, and this one stays flat enough to slide under a cuff.
• The moon phase and calendar give the dial something to say beyond the time, without needing an expensive mechanical movement to run them.
• Japanese quartz means accurate timekeeping, cheap upkeep, and no fuss if you leave it sitting for a fortnight.
• Case and bracelet are both brushed silver-tone steel, so it reads as one designed object rather than a watch plus a band.
• 40 mm is the size most people actually wear, and the integrated bracelet keeps the whole profile tidy.

Fit and Wear

A 40 mm case that is only 9 mm thick sits close to the wrist, which is exactly what you want from a bracelet watch worn with a shirt. It works on small and medium wrists as easily as large ones. The 20 mm steel bracelet carries the weight evenly and dresses up without looking formal, so this is comfortable in an office and fine on a weekend. Keep it away from the pool and the shower and it will look after itself.

Colin's Take

Paying this much for a quartz watch makes people hesitate, and I understand why. What you are buying is the case and the dial: brushed steel, an integrated bracelet, a moon phase, and a 9 mm profile that most watches with this many displays cannot manage. If you want a mechanical movement for the money, this is not your watch. If you want something that looks considered on the wrist and never needs winding, it is. There is one in the shop.
