Excellanc black watch for women metal bracelet

Black goes with nearly everything, and this Excellanc dial is no exception. Wear it with a white shirt, a camel coat, a denim jacket or an evening dress and it simply fits. The black dial sits under mineral glass and carries Roman numerals, a classic detail that won't date.

The round case measures 36 mm across. That is a size you notice on the wrist without it taking over, which suits slim wrists and larger ones alike.

The metal bracelet is made of links, and the clasp is a deployant one that closes with a single click. The bracelet is 18 mm wide and the watch measures 19 cm from end to end. To get the fit right, you remove one or more links. If you are unsure how much to take out, our watch size guide walks you through it.

Inside is a quartz movement with an analogue display. It keeps good time and needs no special care. When the battery runs out, a watchmaker can replace it in a few minutes.

It works in the office, at the weekend and on a night out, so you will probably reach for it more often than you expect.

This is a women's watch from Excellanc, a plain black dial on a metal bracelet with nothing superfluous.
