Just Watch anthracite women's watch with rhinestones mesh

If you like a watch that does a bit of sparkling for you but would never be called loud, this one is probably your sort of thing. It is a Just Watch women's watch in a deep anthracite tone, with a round 36 mm case that sits neatly on the wrist without taking it over.

The dial keeps things simple and easy to read. The anthracite background is set off by Roman numerals, which give it a slightly retro feel, and by silver-toned markers that stand out clearly against the dark face. Then come the rhinestones, which catch the light every time you reach for a coffee, tuck your hair back or type at your desk. It is a small flash of brightness rather than a full-on glitter show.

The mesh bracelet is where the comfort comes from. Made from stainless steel in the same anthracite shade as the case, it moves with your wrist instead of sitting stiffly on it. It fastens with a hook clasp and is 18 mm wide. With the watch included, the total length is 21 cm, and the case is 8 mm thick, so it slips under a cuff without fuss.

Inside you will find a quartz movement, a Miyota 2035, with an analogue display and a mineral glass over the dial. Water resistance is 3 ATM, which is enough to cope with splashes, but it is not meant for the shower or for swimming, so take it off before either.

Because it is dark and understated with a touch of shine, it works from Monday meetings to Saturday dinners without needing a change of outfit. If you enjoy this kind of look and fancy comparing, you can browse our jewellery watches for women to see how other styles compare.
