Eichmüller gold-tone women's watch leather strap

A red leather strap against a gold-tone case is a bold little pairing, and it works best when the rest of your outfit stays simple. Think white tee and blue jeans, a navy blazer, a cream knit, a black dress that needs one spot of colour. The white dial keeps everything crisp and easy to read, so the watch looks polished without trying too hard. This is an Eichmüller women's watch with a rectangular case measuring 24 x 30 mm, a shape that stands out from the usual round faces.

At just 7 mm thick, it sits slim on the wrist and slides under a shirt cuff without a fuss. The strap is genuine leather, 14 mm wide, and it softens the more you wear it, so it ends up moulding to your wrist rather than fighting it. The case is metal in a gold-tone finish. If you like the warm glow of this look and fancy comparing a few options, have a browse through our gold-tone watches for women.

Inside, a quartz movement (TMI PC21) keeps the time reliably, and the dial is protected by mineral glass. Water resistance is 3 ATM, which means it will shrug off a sudden shower or a splash at the sink. Take it off before showering or swimming, though, and your leather strap will thank you for it. Easy to dress up for work, easy to wear at the weekend, it is the kind of watch you reach for without having to think twice.
