Excellanc brown watch for women baton markers 37 mm

Look closely at the case and strap of this Excellanc watch and you will see the grain of the wood running through them. Both are made of wood in a warm brown, the case in sandalwood, which means the veining is slightly different from one watch to the next. Yours will have its own pattern, and that is rather the point.

The round case measures 37 mm across and 11 mm thick, so it sits on the wrist without taking it over. Because the case is wood, it feels light when worn, a pleasant change if you are used to metal. The dial is brown too, a quiet backdrop that goes with almost anything, and slim baton markers keep it clean and easy to read.

The strap is 18 mm wide and, with the case included, the whole watch measures 22.5 cm in length. The deployment clasp means the watch stays secure on your wrist when you open it. Inside is a quartz movement with an analogue display, precise and undemanding. When the battery runs out, a watchmaker can swap it in a few minutes. A mineral glass protects the dial from the small knocks of everyday life.

Styling is simple. This watch looks just as good with a crisp shirt as with a chunky knit. If you would like to compare it with other options, have a look at our classic women's watches and see which look suits you best.
