Cheap Excellanc black women's watch 42 mm faux leather strap

If you like a watch that says something without shouting, this Excellanc is probably for you. It suits the woman who prefers a bold case on her wrist to a dainty one, and who wants something that goes from a Monday meeting to a Saturday night out without a change of plan.

The round metal case is finished in black and measures 42 mm across, with a thickness of 8 mm. It is a confident size, the sort that sits on the wrist like a statement piece rather than a whisper. Against it, the grey dial is a calm, easy backdrop that works with almost anything in your wardrobe, from denim and knitwear to a smarter black outfit.

The black faux leather strap keeps the look classic and slightly understated. If you enjoy the warmth of a traditional strap, you will find more in our women's leather strap watches, but this one is a good place to start, and at its price it is an inexpensive way to try a bolder size.

Fastening is by a traditional pin buckle, so you can set the strap to the hole that feels right for your wrist and adjust it again whenever you like. Faux leather is also pleasantly easy to live with, since a quick wipe is usually all it needs.

Inside is a quartz movement with analogue display, which means reliable time-keeping without any fuss. It is the kind of watch you simply put on in the morning and forget about until someone compliments it.

It is made by Excellanc and designed for women, with a clean black and grey palette that keeps it versatile. If you have been looking for a first statement watch or an everyday companion with a little presence, this one is worth a look.
