If you are looking for a present for a sister, a friend or simply yourself, this Excellanc watch is an easy one to get right. It is a round women's watch with a silver-tone case and dial, set on a black faux leather strap, and it has the kind of classic look that suits almost anyone who opens the box.
The silver-tone and grey dial sits under mineral glass and stays easy to read whatever the occasion. At 39 mm across, it has a confident presence on the wrist without feeling heavy, and the case is 8 mm thick. The black strap is soft against the skin and measures 18 mm wide, with a total length of 24 cm including the case. It pairs just as happily with a knitted jumper on a Monday as with a dress on a Saturday night. If you like the colour of the case, you will find more like it among our silver-tone watches for women.
On the practical side, the strap closes with a pin buckle, so you can set the length hole by hole until it feels right. Inside is a PC21 quartz movement with an analogue display, which keeps things accurate and simple. When the battery eventually runs out, a watchmaker can swap it in a few minutes.
It is also an inexpensive watch, which makes it a lovely way to treat someone, or yourself, without overthinking the budget. Add a handwritten card and you have a thoughtful gift that will actually get worn.
