Cheap Excellanc gold-tone women's watch fabric strap 24 mm

Most small gold-tone watches rely on a metal bracelet and a fairly hard-edged look. This Excellanc does something quieter: it pairs a gold-tone case and dial with a soft yellow fabric strap, and the result feels lighter and more relaxed than the usual jewellery-style piece. It is a watch that adds warmth to an outfit without asking for attention.

The case is round and measures 24 mm across, a delicate size that sits neatly on a slim wrist. The dial is the same gold-tone as the case, so the whole face reads as one smooth, glowing surface. Arabic numerals and baton markers share the dial, which keeps the time easy to read at a glance.

The strap is made of fabric, flexible and light on the skin, and it is 16 mm wide. It closes with a pin clasp, the kind you would find on a bracelet rather than a sports watch, which gives the finish a slightly more refined touch. Fully fastened, the watch measures 19 cm in length and weighs only 25 g, so you will barely notice it during a long day.

Style it with a few gold-tone rings or a fine chain and the wrist looks effortlessly put together. It works as easily with a weekday shirt as with a dress for the weekend. If you enjoy this colour, you can browse more gold-tone women's watches in the shop, and this one stays an inexpensive way to try it.

Inside, a quartz movement keeps the time accurately and needs no winding or fuss. The analogue display is protected by a mineral glass. It is a simple, dependable watch that lets its colour do the talking.
