What strikes you first is how quiet it is. A black dial, a black case and a fine black mesh strap, all in the same dark tone, with roman numerals marking the hours in a classic, unhurried way. There is nothing flashy about this Excellanc women's watch, and that is exactly its charm. The 34 mm round case is a traditional size for a woman's wrist, and at 8 mm thick it sits neatly under a cuff.
The black dial is easy to read at a glance, and the roman numerals give it a faintly vintage air without making it fussy. The strap is a stainless steel mesh, fine and supple, and soft against the skin. It is 12 mm wide and closes with a hook clasp. Black on black works as readily with a crisp shirt as with a knitted jumper, so it slips into a working week or a weekend without any effort.

On the practical side, the watch runs on a quartz movement with analogue display, so the time stays accurate without any fuss. The case is metal, and the mineral glass over the dial helps guard it against the small knocks of everyday life. The total length of the watch is 21.5 cm with the case included, and it weighs just 37 g, light enough that you may forget you have it on. It is also an inexpensive way to add a refined black watch to your collection.
