Simon Carter Square Chronograph – $162.39
When it comes to watches, it’s easy to prefer round. Round cases and faces just seem to go with everything. Square or rectangular watches can sometimes look funny in anything but an extremely formal situation.
Not so with this square chrono from the London based accessory outfit Simon Carter.
It almost looks a bit like a red version of the Tag Heuer Monaco Steve McQueen wore in Le Mans. GQ is also endorsing brightly colored watches for this upcoming spring, and at just over $150, you won’t have to sink your life savings into something that’s got boatloads of character.
Really want to emulate McQueen on the Cheap? These are also available in blue, but they’re saddled with a ridiculous blue leather band. Get the watch, ditch the band, get a new band in black. You’re set.
