The first thing you notice about this Excellanc watch is the strap. It is faux leather in a deep green, soft and supple against the wrist, and it wears in comfortably from the very first day. It also asks very little of you, since a quick wipe is all it needs to look tidy again.
The round case is metal and measures just 30 mm across and 8 mm thick, so it sits neatly on a slim wrist rather than overwhelming it. The strap is 12 mm wide, the total length is 22.5 cm with the watch included, and the whole thing weighs only 25 g. You tend to forget you are wearing it, which is exactly what you want from an everyday piece.
Under the mineral glass, the dial is a mix of green and white that plays nicely with most wardrobes, from navy knitwear to a plain white shirt. Arabic numerals keep the time easy to read at a glance on the analogue display.
A classic pin buckle fastens the strap, and you can adjust the fit hole by hole until it feels right. It goes from jeans at the weekend to smarter office outfits without any fuss. If you enjoy the look of green on the wrist, you may like to browse more women's watches with a leather-look strap to compare other colours and styles.
It is also an inexpensive way to add a touch of colour to your collection, and it makes a thoughtful gift for someone who prefers small, understated watches. Simple, light and easy to wear, it is the kind of watch you will reach for more often than you expect.
