Quick take
Matrix day-date watch: an honest everyday watch that tells you it is Tuesday
A cheap, practical daily watch. Get the strap sized properly and do not expect fine finishing.
You need a watch for swimming, since the listing says little about water resistance.
There is a quiet pleasure in a watch that just tells you the time, the day and the date, without asking you to charge it. That is what this Matrix watch offers.
The listing describes a stainless steel strap, an analog dial with day and date, unisex styling, and dial colours in black, blue and white. Matrix is a budget label, and this is a budget watch. That is a fair trade for something you will wear every day and not worry about scratching.
Two practical notes:
- Steel straps usually need resizing. A watch shop can remove links in a few minutes. Do not force the pins yourself.
- Water resistance is not clearly stated. Keep it away from the shower until you know more.
