Just Watch black ladies' watch 28 mm silver-tone steel

This is a watch for the woman who likes her accessories plain and dependable: someone who wants a small, neat piece that works with a work blouse on Monday and a dress on Saturday without needing a second thought. The Just Watch 28 mm is built around exactly that idea.

The round case measures 28 mm across and 8 mm thick, so it sits close to the wrist and slips easily under a cuff. Case and bracelet are both silver-tone, and the steel bracelet is 14 mm wide. Fully laid out, the watch measures 21 cm from end to end.

The dial is black and uncluttered. Bold Arabic numerals and white markers stand out clearly against the dark background, so you can read the time at a glance. The display is analogue, and the movement is quartz, which keeps time accurately and asks nothing of you day to day. A mineral glass protects the dial from the small knocks of everyday wear.

The bracelet is made of stainless steel links and closes with a clip clasp, fastened in a single press. If it feels loose on your wrist, you can shorten it by removing links, and our watch size guide explains how to measure and adjust.

Water resistance is rated at 5 ATM. In practice, that means the watch copes with rain and splashes at the sink. It is better taken off before swimming.

The silver-tone finish pairs with most other jewellery and with almost any colour of clothing, which makes this a practical choice for a first watch or an everyday replacement. If you would like to compare it with similar pieces, browse our silver-tone watches for women.
