Review Summary:
The Anne Klein gold-tone champagne dial and brown leather strap watch is a casual watch for women—a classy addition to your laidback outfit.
Advantages:
- The gold metal and brown leather strap makes a good combination that is both pleasing to the eye and easy to pair with any outfit.
- It is a classic design that exudes femininity, and will definitely go well with dresses, earth-toned outfits, and other laidback outfits.
- The watch is water-resistant up to 30 meters, meaning you won’t have to worry about minor dampness, or even when you can’t avoid walking in the rain.
- Because it’s waterproof, it is way easier for you to wash it even with damp cloth.
- Made of calfskin leather, the strap is sturdy, soft, and will not be brittle easily. Indeed, a watch perfect for any weather.
- Because the face is just the right size for women, it will not, for lack of a better term, swallow your wrist. Which is, let’s admit, a common thin in women. The small wrists, I mean.
- This watch is a very affordable everyday timepiece. It’s Anne Klein—one of the most trusted labels in timepiece for women. Yet the price is not bad, whether you’re just planning on buying something you can wear every day or something to start your timepiece collection.
- The leather strap and buckle closure makes it easier to adjust the strap if the holes come out to be inconvenient for your wrist. You can easily go to a watch store to have them poke a hole so you can wear the watch closer to your wrist. Snug fit, right?
- It’s a watch perfect for any wrist size. Because of the gold detail near the face of the watch, attaching it to the leather strap, it adds detail that takes attention away from your wrist. Or may accentuate it, whichever works best for you.
Disadvantages:
- Although the watch is waterproof, the leather strap isn’t. So I strongly discourage you from wearing it to swimming, or soaking it in water.
- The leather strap may also get a funky smell over time, because of sweat or dirt getting in between your wrist and watch. So to take care of it, wipe it down whenever you can.
- I do not recommend putting the watch under the sun too much. Although the leather will not get brittle easily, the harsh afternoon sun plus the sweat may hasten the brittleness of the leather. In any case, you can also just replace the leather strap if it becomes torn and brittle.
- It is a day watch, not a night watch. The hands are not luminous so you may have difficulty reading the time in very low lighting.
- The seconds hand is very thin. For some people who may be fond of using their watch to time something, it will be difficult with this watch. The background is gold and so are the hands. So much for contrast, right?
The Anne Klein gold-tone champagne dial and brown leather strap watch is a casual watch for women—a classy addition to your laidback outfit.
