Cheap Excellanc black women's watch 38 mm baton markers

The best thing about this Excellanc watch is how little thinking it asks of you. It goes on in the morning with a quick fasten of the folding clasp, which stays shut until you deliberately open it, so it won't slide off your wrist when you take it off. The quartz movement just keeps time in the background, and the mineral glass over the dial gives it a bit of protection through the usual knocks of a working day.

The black dial is the part people notice. It mixes Arabic numerals with baton markers, so you can read the time at a glance without squinting. The look is neat and understated rather than loud, which makes it easy to wear from the office to a weekend coffee to a night out, with whatever you happen to have on.

On the wrist it feels well judged. The round metal case measures 38 mm across and 8 mm thick, so it shows up without taking over. The metal link bracelet is 18 mm wide and 23 cm long overall. If you like this style and want to see what else is out there, have a look at these women's link bracelet watches and compare a few.

To sum up, this is an analogue quartz women's watch from Excellanc, with a black dial, a metal case and a metal bracelet. It is also an inexpensive way to get a simple, tidy everyday watch. A little care, such as wiping the bracelet now and then, will help it keep looking good for a long time.
