Soft pink and crisp white make a lovely pair, and this Donna Kelly watch plays them off each other nicely. The pink faux leather strap is the colour you notice first, so it suits pale knits, a denim jacket, a white shirt or a summer dress without trying too hard. The white dial keeps the whole thing fresh and light on the wrist.
Look closely at the dial and you will find small dots marking the hours, with silver-tone indexes that stand out clearly against the white. It is analogue, round and uncluttered, so you can read the time at a glance. The case is metal in a silver tone, which gives the pink a neat, polished frame.
At 24 mm across and just 7 mm thick, this is a small, slim watch. It slips under a jumper cuff without a fuss and you will barely feel it during the day. The strap is lightweight and flexible, 6 mm wide, and the total length is 24.5 cm including the case. A pin clasp, the kind you see on a jewellery bracelet, fastens it.
Inside is a quartz movement, reliable and undemanding. When the battery eventually runs out, a watchmaker can swap it in a few minutes. The mineral glass is more scratch-resistant than a plastic one, which is handy for a watch that goes to work, to the shops and out for dinner.
It is also an inexpensive watch that looks like a thoughtful gift, ready to hand over as it is. If you like the silver-tone case, have a look at our other silver-tone women's watches to compare styles before you decide.
