If you are looking for a gift for a friend, a sister or yourself, this Adrina watch is an easy one to get right. It is the kind of present that looks thoughtful without being fussy, and at this price it is genuinely inexpensive, so you can add a second one for the birthday after next without a second thought.
The white dial is the heart of it. Arabic numerals and baton markers share the face, so the time reads at a glance, and the sparkling touches catch the light whenever the wrist moves. The case is a 43 mm round in silver-tone metal, a generous size for someone who likes a watch to be noticed, and the black faux leather strap keeps the whole look calm and grown-up. It is 20 mm wide and the watch measures 23.3 cm in total, fastened with a pin buckle clasp. A quick wipe with a cloth is all the strap needs to look fresh again.
Inside is a quartz movement, precise and simple, with a mineral glass over the dial. When the battery eventually runs out, a watchmaker can swap it in a few minutes. The watch is splash resistant, so rain and hand washing are no trouble, but it should not go in the shower or in the water. The case is 12 mm thick.
To give it a little extra personality, try stacking it with a few slim bangles for a confident, jewellery-style wrist. If you would like to compare it with similar pieces before choosing, our women's jewellery watches offer plenty of other ways to dress up a wrist.
