Excellanc women's watch blue bangle

The case measures 33 mm across and 8 mm deep, a moderate size that sits neatly on a slim or average wrist without dominating it. The bangle strap is rigid and 14 mm wide, with a total length of 15 cm, so it holds its shape and stays put rather than sliding around the way a flexible strap can.

The dial is blue and set in a round metal case in a silver-tone finish, matching the silver-tone bracelet. Roman numerals mark the hours, which keeps the dial easy to read and gives it a classic look. The overall effect sits somewhere between a watch and a piece of jewellery, and if that is the direction you like, you will find more in the same spirit among our women's jewellery watches.

Inside, the Excellanc runs on a PC21 quartz movement with an analogue display, so the time stays accurate without any winding or fuss. The crystal is mineral glass, which resists scratches better than plastic. The silver-tone and blue palette is easy to wear to the office, at the weekend or in the evening, and it pairs comfortably with both casual outfits and dressier ones.
