Cheap Excellanc red women's watch 34 mm faux leather strap

Red is a colour that rarely needs help. On this Excellanc watch it appears twice, in the dial and in the strap, and the effect is calm rather than loud. Wear it with navy, camel or crisp white and it becomes the single deliberate accent in an otherwise quiet outfit. It sits just as well against a grey knit as it does against a plain shirt, and small dots mark the hours so the dial stays uncluttered.

The round metal case measures 34 mm across and 9 mm thick, a size that suits most wrists without dominating them. The red faux leather strap is 12 mm wide and closes with a classic pin buckle, so you can set the length hole by hole. The whole watch measures 22 cm when laid out. Wiping the strap with a cloth is all the care it asks for, and it looks at home from Monday morning through to Saturday evening. If you enjoy this style, you will find more like it among our women's leather strap watches.

Inside is a quartz movement with an analogue display, simple and accurate. When the battery eventually runs out, a watchmaker can replace it in a few minutes. A mineral glass protects the dial from the small knocks of everyday life. It is an inexpensive watch with a considered look, and it makes an easy gift for anyone who likes a touch of colour handled with restraint.
