Primo black women's watch with steel bracelet

Most black-dial watches blend into the background. This Primo does not. The rectangular case is the first thing that sets it apart from a standard round model, and it gives the watch a sharper, more graphic look on the wrist. The black dial alternates Arabic numerals with baton indexes, so you read the time at a glance.

The case and the bracelet are both stainless steel. The bracelet is silver-tone, made of links, and closes with a deployant clasp that fastens in one click. At 18 mm wide, it sits neatly on a slimmer wrist. Total length is 21 cm, watch included, and you can shorten it by removing links. Our watch size guide shows you how to do it.

Inside, a quartz movement keeps accurate time without any winding or fuss. The glass is mineral, which stands up to scratches better than plastic. The case is 9 mm thick, slim enough to slide under a cuff.

Water resistance is 3 ATM, which covers splashes and rain. Take it off for the shower and the pool. It suits the office, a weekend out and an evening dinner equally well.
