Stepping up in Limit's range

Price range £15 to £60 across 17 Limit watches in stock.

The Classic range is Limit's long-running line of no-fuss dress watches built for the British market — modest in scale, traditional in layout, and meant to sit beneath a shirt cuff without drawing attention to themselves. At 35mm and just 8mm deep, this one does exactly that. The white dial carries full Arabic numerals in black against the clean ground, which keeps it readable at a glance without any fussiness. What makes the bracelet worth noting is that it expands rather than fastens: you pull it over the hand and it contracts onto the wrist by itself, with no clasp to align and no links to remove. For a watch worn and removed daily, that turns out to matter more than it sounds.

Frequently asked questions, and things you should know about this watch

Will the glass scratch?

It can, over time. Mineral glass handles daily wear but will pick up fine scratches that sapphire would not.

Does it need a battery?

Yes. It is quartz, so expect a battery change every two to three years at a jeweller.

Is it a men's or women's watch?

Listed as men's, though at 35mm it sits in the range that suits anyone.
