New Release: The Cool Black Elliot Brown Canford 202-004 Watch
Tuesday - 20 June 2023
The Canford watch range is probably one of the very few designs on the market that looks diver-inspired but gets away with a dressy aesthetic. If that sounds like a bit of you, you need to check out the latest gun-metal version of the Canford – the 202-004 reference.
Classy and understated – two words that simply have to be used when talking about the Elliot Brown Canford watch collection. If you’re looking for an affordable watch that you can enjoy every day of the week, it ticks that box too. The watches from this line are fitted with a Swiss-made movement that will last three years or more and despite its large 44mm diameter, it actually wears a lot smaller than you’d think. Let’s take a closer look at what makes the Canford range so appealing to young and experienced watch wearers and why the new model 202-004 Canford watch is a keeper.
The Canford 202-004 model is a sleek and stealthy-looking companion for the wrist. It belongs to a family of wristwatches known for their utilitarian and functional style. The high contrast of the hands against a rich dial really enhances legibility in all conditions, not just during the night. The bright Super-LumiNova material applied to the surface of the hands and hour markers makes a great contrasting feature against a textured dial, making this a workhorse for enjoying day-in, day-out.
The Canford watch by Elliot Brown is considered the brand’s signature design and is now offered on a supple, comfortable rubber strap. The decision to fit the watch on this style of band makes it a great choice for all outdoor activities and water-related sports. Of course, rubber does not absorb water in the same way that a leather or material/NATO band would do, so there’s no guessing as to why the rubber band works so well with this watch. The case of the new Elliot Brown Canford watch is also manufactured from solid marine-grade stainless steel that is executed in a striking gunmetal grey colour and has been sandblasted for a rugged and professional look. The finish on the case is also chosen for its ability to minimise reflections and does well to complement the satin black dial. As mentioned, white graphics provide ultimate legibility in dark conditions, glowing for long periods whenever you need to reference the time.
The new Elliot Brown Canford 202-004 watch is also water resistant to 200 meters and holds a quartz movement at its centre. The Ronda quartz movement is secured and protected inside a steel and elastomer damped shock-absorbing movement holder. To ensure a watertight environment for this movement, the watch has a triple-sealed crown that measures a 6mm diameter. The crown is also knurled for promoting an easy grip, whilst the back of the case is bolted down with oversized seals that also lock out moisture.
The Elliot Brown Canford watch has an innovative internal rotating bezel with Super-LumiNova markers that enable you to measure elapsed time effectively whilst on the go. This lume material matches the luminous-coated Arabic numerals and stick markers that outline the hour track, as well as the central hands that are chunky and highly visible. Finished on a black rubber band, the Canford watch has screw-in steel strap bars with a tool that is included with the purchase, enabling you to easily swap the strap over on the watch whenever desired. To secure to the wrist, the black rubber band is fitted on a dark gunmetal grey tongue buckle engraved with the Elliot Brown logo. Lastly, to protect the surface of the dial, the Canford watch is secured with a domed anti-reflective and scratch-resistant piece of sapphire crystal glass. This shields the hands on the dial, the hour markers, the internal bezel, the date window, and the minute track from damage caused by light, moisture., heat and debris.
