Akzent gold-tone women's watch blue dial black faux leather

Blue and gold have always made a good pair, and this Akzent watch puts them together in a way that looks easy rather than showy. The deep blue dial sits inside a gold-tone case, with a black faux leather strap to keep everything grounded. Wear it with a navy knit, a crisp white shirt or a simple black dress and it will quietly lift the whole outfit.

The dial is where the personality is. The blue catches the eye without shouting, and the Arabic numerals mean you can read the time at a glance, whether you are checking it across a meeting table or on the way out of the door. It is an analogue display, classic and uncluttered.

If you already have gold-tone jewellery you love, this watch slips in beside it nicely. A fine chain or a pair of small hoops will match the case, and the black strap stops the look from feeling too sweet. If you enjoy collecting pieces in that warm finish, our gold-tone watches for women are worth a browse.

On the wrist it is light, at just 28 g, and slim, with a case 8 mm thick. The strap is 16 mm wide and the watch measures 24.3 cm from end to end. The black faux leather is soft and easy to look after, and it fastens with a traditional pin buckle clasp.

Inside, a quartz movement keeps accurate time without any fuss, and the mineral glass resists scratches better than plastic would. The water resistance is 3 ATM, which is fine for splashes and handwashing. Do take it off before a shower or a swim.
