Stainless steel has a quiet, cool weight on the wrist, and this Primo watch makes the most of it. The round case and the link bracelet are both steel, finished in a silver tone that stays polished without drawing attention. The links sit smoothly against the skin and fold into a deployant clasp, which keeps the watch securely closed and stops it slipping off while you put it on or take it off.
Against all that metal, the white dial feels fresh and uncluttered. Arabic numerals mark the hours, so the time reads at a glance, and a mineral glass protects the face from the small knocks of everyday life. At 32 mm across and 11 mm thick, the case is neither dainty nor dominant, which suits both slim wrists and those who prefer a watch with a little presence. It works as easily with a crisp shirt as with a soft knit, and if you like this look you will find more in our silver-tone watches for women.
Inside is a quartz movement with an analogue display, accurate and undemanding to live with. The bracelet is 24 mm wide and the watch measures 20 cm from end to end, so it is worth checking against your wrist before you choose. Water resistance is rated at 10 ATM, which is fine for a swim at the surface, though this is not a watch for diving.
