Vibrant coloured beads run alongside a single strand of pearl-look accents on this one, threaded onto a multi-strand gold chain wide enough that no single strand carries the whole design. Meenakari enamelling does the colour work instead of any stonework, fired panels either side of a plain quartz dial, worked into the metal rather than painted over it afterward. Ghungroo bells close out both ends of the chain, small enough to sit quietly against the wrist rather than swing loose.

Multi-strand construction is the real difference from a single-chain watch. It spreads the beads and pearl-look accents across width instead of length, so the design reads as a cluster on the wrist rather than a line running along it. That makes it sit a little fuller than the plainer pieces nearby, closer to a cuff than a strap, while the watch face itself stays small and out of the way.

The pearl-look beads are exactly that, beads finished to resemble pearl rather than the real thing, so there's no claim to make beyond how they look strung between the coloured glass. Meenakari work like this asks for the same care as any plated piece: keep it away from perfume and water, and store it flat rather than tangled with heavier jewellery. At ₹320, it sits toward the higher end for the extra width alone.
