Excellanc watch for women 43 mm brown wooden bracelet round

Picture a Tuesday morning: you grab your coat, glance at your wrist on the way to the door, and the warm brown of a wooden case catches the light from the hallway. That small moment is what this Excellanc watch is about. It is a women's watch that feels natural and a little bit different from the usual metal and silicone.

The case and the bracelet are both made of wood, in a matching brown, so the whole watch reads as one piece. Wood has its own character, too. The grain varies from one watch to the next, which means yours will never be quite identical to anyone else's.

At 43 mm across and 12 mm thick, the round case has a generous presence on the wrist, in that slightly oversized style that is so popular right now. The dial is brown, and the silver-tone markers stand out clearly against it. Arabic numerals alternate with baton markers, so you can read the time at a glance, even when you are rushing between meetings.

Inside is a quartz movement with an analogue display, the kind of reliable mechanism you can simply forget about and let get on with its job. A mineral glass protects the dial from everyday knocks.

The bracelet closes with a deployant clasp, which is a comfort when you are fastening it one-handed with a coffee in the other. The bracelet is 22 mm wide, and the total length, watch included, is 24.5 cm.

This is an easy watch to wear from the office to a Saturday market to dinner out, and the warm tone sits well with a crisp shirt as much as a chunky knit.
