Affordable Watch Brands for Women (that look expensive)

Smartwatch and music

Introduction

Affordable watch brands – Not all of us can, or want to, spend thousands on a watch. No matter how much we might love it. It’s arguable that a decent timepiece is an investment and well worth the money (they do stand the test of time, after all). 

It’s equally arguable that a budget watch that looks more expensive than it’s price tag is unbeatable. You can afford to keep up with the very latest trends.

If you don’t know which brands offer this kind of watch, don’t you worry. This article will outline some of the more price-accessible watch brands that produce some stunning timepieces. They all come in sub-$200 but pack a design punch. If you’re keen on sophistication, keep reading. These watches will suit almost anything you have to wear.

Let’s begin…

Fossil

Fossil is well known for its high-quality leather products. They’ve been around for many, many years. They’re a common occurrence in any trendy person’s wardrobe. Largely because everything they make looks uber-expensive.

Carlie Mini

The Charlie Mini comes in rose gold with a mesh band. It’s purposely designed for the elegant woman. It has a dainty 28mm case, mother of pearl on the dial and Roman numerals. Inside is quartz movement. The rose gold is actually stainless steel. It’s also water-resistant to 50m which is handy for when you forget to take it off before a shower, or you get caught in the rain.

Skagen

Skagen should be in your collection. Their minimalist Danish style is to die for. The price simply does not reflect the quality, so get one before they realise!

This is a really fun watch. The name in Danish literally means to add colour and fun. They’re inspired by the bright colours of the houses in Copenhagen. 

It has a 41mm case of aluminium. The dial is sand-blasted. It has numbers for the hours and minute markers between. The subdial tracks the passing seconds.

You can change the 20mm wristband for any colour you like.
