The first thing you notice is the dial. It is a soft mix of colours with black running through it, cheerful without being loud, and the Arabic numerals are drawn clearly enough that you can read the time in a glance. Then the size registers: at 42 mm across, this is a proper statement watch, the kind of generous round case that looks relaxed and a little oversized on a woman's wrist.
The case is metal in a silver tone, and the multicoloured stainless steel bracelet picks up the shades of the dial, so the whole watch feels like one considered piece rather than a dial with something attached to it. It sits happily with denim and a plain white tee at the weekend, but it is just as easy to wear to the office or out for the evening. If you like this look, you will find more like it among our silver-tone watches for women.
On the practical side, the bracelet is a stretch design, so there is no clasp to fiddle with. You simply slide it over your hand and it stays put. It is 20 mm wide, and the total length including the case is 20.5 cm. The case is 7.5 mm thick, which keeps it neat under a cuff, and the dial is protected by mineral glass.
Inside is a quartz movement with an analogue display, so the time stays accurate without you giving it a thought. This Donna Kelly watch is also inexpensive, which makes it an easy way to add a bit of colour to your collection, or a thoughtful present for someone who likes a bolder style.
