Cheap Donna Kelly grey watch for women expanding bracelet

Grey is the colour that does the quiet work in a wardrobe, and this Donna Kelly watch carries it well. The dial is a soft grey, set inside a silver-tone case, and it sits happily alongside charcoal knitwear, a crisp white shirt, navy tailoring or a simple black dress. Nothing about it shouts, which is exactly the point.

The dial keeps things clear and uncluttered. Arabic numerals mark the hours, and the black markers stand out neatly against the grey and white background, so reading the time takes no more than a glance. It is an analogue display with a round case, a shape that works with almost any outfit.

At 42 mm across and 7.5 mm thick, the case has real presence on the wrist. It suits anyone who likes a watch that is easy to see, and it looks equally natural pushed up under a cuff or worn on its own with bare arms in summer.

The bracelet is stainless steel in a matching grey, and it expands, so there is no clasp to fasten. You simply slide it on and off. It is 20 mm wide, and the watch measures 20.5 cm in total, which gives a comfortable, relaxed fit rather than a tight one.

Inside is a quartz movement, accurate and straightforward to live with. When the battery eventually runs out, a watchmaker can replace it in a few minutes. A mineral glass protects the dial from the small knocks of everyday wear, so it copes well with the office, the weekend and evenings out.

It is an inexpensive watch, yet it looks considered, which makes it a thoughtful gift as well as an easy everyday choice. If you enjoy the cool metallic look, you can explore more women's silver-tone watches in the same spirit.
