Akzent white ladies' watch mesh strap

This is a watch you can put on in the morning and forget about. The quartz movement keeps accurate time, the Arabic numerals on the white dial make it easy to read at a glance, and the only upkeep it needs is a new battery every so often.

The Akzent mesh strap is fine and flexible, so it follows the shape of your wrist rather than sitting stiffly on top of it. It is 18 mm wide and closes with a hook clasp. Including the case, the total length is 21.5 cm, which suits a slim wrist well.

The round metal case measures 30 mm across and 8 mm thick, a compact size that stays discreet. The strap is stainless steel in a rose gold-tone finish, which warms the skin and pairs easily with the clean white dial. The glass is mineral.

Style-wise, the rose gold-tone works with nude, powdery and pastel shades, and just as well with black. It is a neutral piece that fits office days, weekends and dinners without any fuss.

Water resistance is 3 ATM, so a rain shower is fine, but take it off before showering or swimming. If you like the look and want to compare, browse our women's mesh strap watches for other styles.
