Excellanc silver-tone women's watch 36 mm faux leather cheap

The first thing to know about this Excellanc is how the strap is made: faux leather in blue, finished with a classic pin buckle, and sized at 18 mm wide. It has the look of a traditional leather strap, but it wipes clean with a cloth, which suits a watch you plan to wear every day.

Around it sits a round metal case, 36 mm across and 8 mm thick. That is a comfortable, balanced size for a women's watch, noticeable on the wrist without ever looking oversized. The silver-tone dial keeps things calm and bright, while black Arabic numerals and markers stand out clearly against it, so reading the time takes a glance and nothing more.

Blue and silver-tone is an easy pairing. The strap adds a splash of colour to a plain jumper, and the dial catches the light just enough to dress up a shirt and trousers. It sits as happily with jeans at the weekend as with an office outfit on Monday morning.

Inside, a quartz movement keeps the time accurately and without fuss. When the battery eventually runs out, a watchmaker can swap it in a few minutes. A mineral glass covers the dial and protects it from the knocks and scrapes of daily life. End to end, the watch measures 22.5 cm, so check that against your wrist if you like a snug fit.

At this price it is an inexpensive way to add a blue strap to your collection, and if you enjoy the look of leather on the wrist, you will find more ideas among our women's watches with leather straps.
