A small bow shape traces the edge of the dial on this one, worked into the case itself rather than sitting as a separate charm, an unusual detail on a watch case rather than on a chain or a clasp. The dial runs aqua blue, cooler and brighter than the deep blues seen elsewhere in this bracelet-watch range, set against a silver-tone finish that leans crisp rather than warm.

The bracelet is a fine mesh band, flexible enough to sit close to the wrist without the give of a chain-link style. Quartz movement keeps time underneath. There's no clasp to fasten, so it slips on and off like a bangle, one less step for a watch worn most days.

Silver-tone plating asks for the same basic care most plated pieces do: away from perfume and heavy sweat, dry storage when it's off the wrist, since damp storage does more damage over time than a single humid afternoon out. The bow detail keeps this one a shade dressier than a plain round dial, without the mesh bracelet turning it into pure jewellery over function.

At this price, it reads as a watch that could go from an office desk on a Monday to a family lunch on a Sunday without anything else about the outfit needing to change, the aqua dial doing most of that work on its own.
