Coach · Men's Watches
First real watch energy without the first-real-watch price.
A chronograph face, a date window and a designer name he has heard of, for the price of a nice dinner. This is the watch you buy a boyfriend who currently checks his phone for the time, to find out whether he becomes a watch person before you spend four figures finding out.
4.2 out of 5
First-real-watch energy without the first-real-watch price. Proper chronograph sub-dials and a well-finished case. It is quartz and it is Coach rather than a watchmaker — a good-looking watch, not the start of a collection.
