The first thing you notice is the dial. It is a deep, quiet blue with silver-tone detailing, and it gives this Excellanc watch a calm, collected look from across the room. Nothing about it shouts, which is exactly its charm.
The Roman numerals add a classic note that sits well against the modern lines of the round case. At 38 mm across it is clearly visible on the wrist without ever feeling oversized, and at 9 mm thick it stays slim enough to slide under a cuff.
The metal bracelet is made of links that move easily with your wrist, and it is 18 mm wide. The case is metal too, so the whole watch has a cohesive, polished feel. If you like a watch that looks put together without trying hard, this is the kind of piece that does the work for you.
On the practical side, the quartz movement keeps reliable time with an analogue display, so there is nothing to think about once it is on your wrist. The mineral glass resists scratches better than plastic would, which is reassuring for a watch you intend to wear every day.
The clip clasp closes with a simple press. With the case included, the total length is 19.5 cm, so it is worth checking against your wrist before you order. It is also an inexpensive watch, which makes it an easy choice for a birthday or a small treat to yourself.
Blue pairs quietly with denim, with neutrals and with whites, so it moves from a Monday morning to a Saturday evening without any fuss. If the look appeals, you will find more like it among our women's link bracelet watches.
