Cheap silver-tone women's watch 40 mm metal roman numerals

Silver-tone from case to bracelet, this Excellanc watch is the sort of piece that quietly works with whatever is in your wardrobe: a navy blazer, a white shirt, a black slip dress, even a chunky grey knit at the weekend. The silver-tone dial picks up the same shade as the case, so the whole watch reads as one clean, cool colour rather than a collection of competing details.

Roman numerals around the dial give it a classic, slightly old-school character, and the round 40 mm case adds a confident presence on the wrist. This is not a dainty watch that hides under a cuff. It sits at 12 mm thick, so you will notice it, and that is rather the point. Pair it with slim, simple jewellery and let the watch be the statement.

The bracelet is made of metal links, finished in the same silver-tone, and it closes with a deployant clasp that fastens in one click. The strap is 20 mm wide and the watch measures 21 cm in total. If it feels a little loose, you can remove links to shorten it, and our watch size guide walks you through how to do it.

Inside is a quartz movement with an analogue display, accurate and easy to live with, and the dial is protected by mineral glass, which stands up to scratches better than plastic. It is an inexpensive watch, yet it looks far more polished than its price suggests, and it sits comfortably alongside the other silver-tone watches in our women's collection.
