Akzent black women's watch baton markers metal bracelet

Black is the colour that asks the least of you and gives the most back. This Akzent watch is black from top to bottom, with a black dial, a black metal case and a black bracelet, so it sits comfortably with a crisp white shirt on a weekday morning and just as easily with a little dress when the evening plans change. If your wardrobe leans towards greys, navy and denim, it will quietly fit in there too.

On the dial, slim baton markers keep things neat and easy to read, with nothing fussy competing for attention. At 26 mm across and 8 mm thick, the round case is delicate rather than showy, the sort of size that looks natural on a slender wrist. The bracelet is made of metal links and closes with a simple clasp. If you are not sure how it will sit on your wrist, our watch size guide is a good place to start before you adjust the links.

Inside, a quartz movement with an analogue display keeps the time reliably without any winding or fuss. The water resistance is 3 ATM, which is enough to cope with the odd splash. It is a straightforward, wearable watch, and for many people it will quickly become the one they reach for without thinking.
