Cheap Excellanc grey women's watch faux leather strap 40 mm

Most basic watches either shrink into the wrist or look a bit shy. This Excellanc is a different story: a 40 mm round case in grey metal, big enough to be noticed and still only 8 mm thick, so it sits neatly under a cuff. If you like a watch that makes a small statement, you will feel at home with it.

The dial is black, clean and easy to read. Clear Arabic numerals mark the hours, and the analogue display means you can check the time at a glance, whether you are in a meeting or running for a bus. Grey against black gives it a calm, slightly graphic look that does not try too hard.

The strap is black faux leather, soft against the skin and 20 mm wide. It closes with a classic pin buckle, so you can set the length hole by hole until it feels just right. Fully fastened, the watch measures 23 cm in total. It works as happily with jeans and a jumper as with workwear, and it carries over into the evening without any fuss.

Inside is a quartz movement, precise and quietly reliable, with a mineral glass over the dial. It is the kind of watch you put on in the morning and forget about until someone compliments it. At this price it is inexpensive enough to treat yourself, and it makes a thoughtful gift too, for a friend, a sister or a colleague.
