Bahnhof white women's watch faux leather strap

White and black is one of those pairings that never needs explaining. On this Bahnhof women's watch, a clean white dial sits against a black faux leather strap, and the result looks right with almost anything: a pale linen shirt, a navy knit, a black dress, or simply a well-worn pair of jeans.

The round case is a modest 26 mm across and 8.5 mm thick, so it sits lightly on the wrist and slips easily under a cuff. The metal case has a silver-tone finish that picks up the white of the dial without shouting about it.

The dial keeps things quiet. There are no numerals, only slim black hour markers that stand out clearly against the white background, which makes the time easy to read at a glance. A date display is the only extra, and it stays discreet.

The strap is a soft black faux leather, 14 mm wide, fastened with a classic pin buckle so you can set the length to the hole that suits you. Fitted to the case, the full length comes to 22.5 cm.

Inside is a quartz movement, precise and undemanding, with an analogue display. The mineral glass resists scratches better than plastic would. Water resistance is rated at 3 ATM, which is enough to cope with a few raindrops, but not for showering or swimming, so take it off before you get in the water.

If you like the idea of a silver-tone case with a softer strap, you will find more to compare in our silver-tone watches for women.
