Cheap Excellanc women's watch 40 mm rose gold-tone bracelet

The first thing you notice about this Excellanc watch is the bracelet. It is built from rose gold-tone metal links, and the finish gives it a polished, jewellery-like look on the wrist rather than the flat feel you sometimes get at this level. The case is metal as well, and the bracelet brings a soft, warm note to the whole watch.

The dial is round and analogue, with Roman numerals that add a classic touch which never really goes out of fashion. At 40 mm across and 8 mm thick, the case has real presence without becoming bulky. It suits you if you like a watch that is noticed, and it sits happily with soft, muted colours as much as with black. Wear it with a knit on a Monday morning or a simple dress on a Saturday evening and it holds its own.

Inside is a quartz movement (PC21), accurate and easy to live with, so there is nothing to wind and nothing to fuss over. A mineral glass protects the dial from the little knocks of everyday life. The bracelet is 14 mm wide and the watch measures 19 cm from end to end. It closes with a deployant clasp, which keeps the watch safely on your wrist and spares you the worry of it slipping off when you open it.

It is an inexpensive way to add a warm, feminine accent to your wrist. If you would like to compare it with other options, take a look at our rose gold-tone watches for women, and you will probably find a few more that catch your eye.
