Akzent women's watch grey 31 mm faux leather strap

What you notice first is how calm it looks. The soft grey dial sits inside a round, silver-tone case, and the grey faux leather strap picks up the same shade, so nothing competes for attention. This is the Akzent "Mayar", a women's watch that suits quiet, polished outfits, whether that means a tailored blazer at the office or a simple dress for dinner. The Arabic numerals keep the dial easy to read at a glance.

At 31 mm across and 8 mm thick, the case is a classic size for a woman's wrist, neither oversized nor fussy. The strap is 12 mm wide and feels soft against the skin, and the pin buckle clasp lets you set the fit hole by hole. With the watch included, the total length is 23 cm. If you like the cool, metallic tone of the case, you will find more in our silver-tone watches for women.

Inside is a PC21 quartz movement with an analogue display, accurate and undemanding. The mineral glass resists scratches better than plastic would. Water resistance is 3 ATM, which covers splashes and handwashing, but it is best taken off before a shower or a swim.
