Cheap Akzent silver-tone watch for women 38 mm faux leather

The strap on this Akzent is a soft pink, and that colour decides how you wear it. Pink faux leather against a silver-tone case looks right with denim and a plain white shirt, and it also softens a grey or navy office outfit without making it look fussy. It is a watch for people who like a bit of colour on the wrist but not a loud one.

The round case measures 38 mm across and is 8 mm thick, so it has a clear presence on the wrist without being bulky. The dial is silver-toned as well, with Roman numerals, which keep the face classic and easy to read whatever you are wearing. Together with the case, it makes a tidy match with other silver-tone jewellery. If that is the look you are building, you can see more in our women's silver-tone watches.

The case is metal and the strap is faux leather, fastened with a classic pin buckle. The strap is 14 mm wide, the watch is 24 cm long in total and it weighs just 30 g, so you will hardly notice it during the day. The faux leather wipes clean with a cloth.

Inside is a quartz movement, model Y121, with an analogue display. It is a simple, accurate mechanism: all it asks of you is a new battery from time to time. The glass is mineral, which stands up to scratches better than plastic does.

Water resistance is 3 ATM, enough to cope with a shower of rain but not for swimming or the shower, so take it off before either. It is an inexpensive way to add a pink and silver-tone watch to your collection.
