An all-black watch might sound like an overly aggressive style statement, but the perpetually cool color actually works just as well on a timepiece as it does a tuxedo or a grand piano. Case in point: the all-black watch from Citizen that’s one of the most stylish around and, now that it’s nearly half off at Macy’s, also one of the best values in watches we’ve seen in a while.
The Citizen Men’s Eco-Drive Brycen Black Stainless Steel Watch is on sale for $268 at Macy’s, 49% off its normal $525 price tag with code FRIEND. Along with being a very good-looking timepiece, it’s solidly built with premium features — all of which make it an even better deal for less than $300.

The secret to an all-black watch that doesn’t look like a boring monolith is texture, and this watch has it in spades. There’s the bezel with raised numbers and second markers, the gray geometric number markers at the number positions, and the incredible wave pattern etched on the dial. The bracelet and case are made of black stainless steel, a beautiful and durable material. The timepiece is water-resistant to 100 meters and runs on an Eco-Drive movement that never needs a battery.
