Cheap Excellanc ladies' watch pink dial 38 mm 9 mm thick

If you are the sort of person who wants one soft splash of colour on your wrist without making a fuss about it, this pink Excellanc watch is aimed squarely at you. It suits the woman who reaches for jeans and a jumper at the weekend, then swaps into a crisp shirt on Monday morning, and wants the same watch to cope with both.

The dial is a gentle pink, and the 38 mm round case in metal is big enough to read at a glance yet slim enough, at 9 mm thick, to slip under a cuff. It is a quiet size, noticeable without shouting. The display is analogue, so you get proper hands and none of the glow of a screen.

The strap is pink faux leather, soft against the skin from the first wear, and it matches the dial so the whole watch looks like one considered piece. It is 14 mm wide and fastens with a pin buckle, so you choose the exact hole that feels right rather than settling for a fixed fit. Overall length, watch included, is 22.5 cm, and the whole thing weighs just 35 g, which means you will forget it is there.

Inside is a PC21 quartz movement, accurate and fuss-free, and a mineral glass protects the dial from the everyday knocks of door frames, desks and bag zips. At this price it is an inexpensive way to add some colour to your outfits, and it pairs just as happily with a knit as with a work blouse.

If pink is not quite your shade, or you would like to compare a few options, have a look at our women's watches with leather-style straps and see what catches your eye.
