The watches of this eccentric Dutch brand have always stood out from the background of their counterparts with particularly large sizes. And the sports collection Grand Prix, which will be discussed today, stands out from the rest of the MAX XL collections in that it was created only and exclusively for men.
Depending on the model choice, the bezel, crown and extended chronograph pushers are made of regular steel or black IP-coated. The tachymeter scale, if desired, can merge with the black color of the dial, or, on the contrary, stand out brightly against its background and complement the impression of the contrasting stitching of the strap.
The standard Miyota quartz movement is hidden behind the steel case. There is nothing to be surprised at. As well as increased strength mineral glass. Actually, the brand takes it: inexpensive materials form a budget solution, which at the end pleases not only with its availability, but also with elementary practicality. The crown is protected by a secure bracket.
Considering also the high degree of water resistance (100 meters), this watch can safely swim and jump into the water. By the way, pay attention to the purely design decision to embody the shape of the protective bracket in the drawing around one of the chronograph windows.
The leather strap is attached with a classic buckle. The case diameter will surprise no one - 45mm. Case thickness - 14,5mm. A nice bonus: on the official website of the company you can download and print a small pdf-file that contains a “pattern” of your chosen watch in full size. You can even re-measure the entire collection without leaving your home!
