The best thing about this watch is how little thought it asks of you. The strap is black faux leather, so a quick wipe with a cloth keeps it looking tidy, and the pin buckle closes in a second when you are halfway out of the door. At 34 mm across and 11 mm thick, the round case sits comfortably under a cuff and does not catch on a sleeve. It is a watch you put on in the morning and forget about until someone compliments it.
That compliment is likely to be about the dial. It is gold-tone, bright and easy to read, with simple baton markers instead of numbers, so the time registers at a glance. Small sparkling stones catch the light whenever you move your wrist, which gives it a dressed-up touch without making it loud. The case is metal in a matching gold-tone, so the whole watch reads as one warm, polished piece.
Styling is easy because the gold-tone plays nicely with other jewellery. Wear it with gold-tone rings and chains for a glowing, coordinated look, or stack it with a few slim bracelets if you like your wrist to look layered. If you enjoy this sort of sparkle, have a browse through our women's jewellery watches to compare other styles.
Inside is a quartz movement with an analogue display, which keeps things reliable and uncomplicated, as the battery is the only thing you will need to replace now and then. The mineral glass is more scratch-resistant than plastic glass. The strap is 14 mm wide and the full length of the watch measures 23.5 cm. It is an inexpensive watch that works just as well for treating yourself as it does as a gift for someone who likes a little shine.
