Cheap Akzent gold-tone women's watch 38 mm faux leather strap

This is a watch for the woman who likes a little warmth in her wardrobe without making a statement of it. The gold-tone case, a round 38 mm in size and just 8 mm thick, catches the light quietly, and the brown dial beside it keeps the whole look calm. It suits someone who reaches for a good shirt, a soft knit or a pair of well-cut jeans and wants a finishing touch that feels considered rather than showy.

The dial is easy to read, with Arabic numerals that leave no doubt about the time, and a mineral glass protects it from the knocks of daily life. The strap is brown faux leather, 20 mm wide, which wipes clean with a cloth and sits comfortably against the wrist. It fastens with a classic pin buckle, so you can set the length hole by hole, and the total length including the watch is 23 cm. The case colour comes from ion plating. If you like this finish, you may want to look through our selection of gold-tone watches for women to compare other shapes and shades.

Inside is a quartz movement, the PC21, which keeps accurate time and asks nothing of you. Water resistance is 3 ATM, enough for rain and the odd splash, but not for showering or swimming, so take it off before you do either. It is also an inexpensive watch, which makes it an easy one to wear every day without worrying over it, from the office to a weekend lunch.
