A smoky quartz bracelet offers grounding symbolism in crystal lore, not a demonstrated health benefit for men. Compare meaning and listed materials.
Choose a smoky quartz bracelet if grounding symbolism matters to you: the supplied crystal lore describes smoky quartz as a grounding stone said to absorb and release what no longer serves you. That lore does not establish a health benefit specifically for men or make a smoky quartz bracelet physically better than a clear quartz bracelet.

What are the benefits of a smoky quartz bracelet for men, according to crystal lore?
The benefit attributed to a smoky quartz bracelet in the supplied material is grounding, a claim from crystal lore rather than evidence of a tested effect. Crystal Vaults, Energy Muse, The Crystal Council, Tiny Rituals and Moonrise Crystals describe smoky quartz as "a premier grounding stone" that is said to absorb and release what no longer serves you.
The supplied lore does not establish a benefit specific to men. A man choosing a smoky quartz bracelet can treat grounding as personal symbolism rather than a promise of stress relief, better sleep or protection.
For the broader question, see the general breakdown of smoky quartz bracelet benefits.
What should guide the choice between a smoky quartz bracelet and a clear quartz bracelet?

The supplied evidence does not establish how a smoky quartz bracelet compares with a clear quartz bracelet for scratch resistance, fracture risk or cleaning requirements. Missing physical data does not establish a tie or an advantage.
Telling the stones apart before buying is a separate question, covered by the visual checks for smoky quartz versus clear quartz.
Which bracelet should you choose?
Choose a smoky quartz bracelet if grounding symbolism appeals to you and you want the listed mixed materials in French Spring ($75). French Spring includes smoky quartz alongside rutilated quartz, hematoid quartz, cinnabar and a carved wood flower; French Spring is not a smoky-quartz-only bracelet.
Choose a clear quartz bracelet if you prefer the listed clear quartz chunky nuggets in Clear Water ($95). Both bracelets are listed as available in the supplied stock records; neither choice comes with evidence here of a health or protection benefit.
