Check out the best women’s watches under $500 in our rundown. Getting ready for work, gym, a date, or even a girls’ night out is certainly hard for most women. Picking the right outfit, matching accessories, and appropriate makeup takes time and consideration. You could speed up the process by choosing timeless accessories that pair with most garments, such as a stylish wristwatch.

But with so many choices out there how can you find the right one?

1. Michael Kors Access Lexington 2 Smartwatch

The best women’s watches under $500 for fashionistas

Diamonds are a girl’s best friend, and even if this smartwatch by Michael Kors is not embellished with real diamonds, it’s hard to deny its beauty. Access Lexington 2 is elegance concentrated into a surprisingly functional gadget.

Nothing betrays its smart nature, from the rich watch face decorated with an oversized logo to the absolutely brilliant band. All it takes, though, is a touch to reveal the hidden functionalities. Lexington 2 is a capable smartwatch designed to stay on your wrist wherever you go.

It runs the acclaimed Wear OS by Google and works with both Android and iPhones. Perks include smartphone notifications and alerts, built-in fitness tracker, music storage and control, as well as Google Pay.

With an estimated battery life of about one day in normal mode, or up to three days in low power mode, and water resistance up to 5ATM, this watch is much more than stylish. In summary, it is a hybrid timepiece with top-of-the-range smart features ideal for all fashionistas.

2. Michael Kors Access Bradshaw 2 Smartwatch

Extremely fashionable and slightly more affordable wearable

Bradshaw 2 is the certainly more affordable alternative to Lexington 2. Similarly it comes from the same Access collection and sports the same Wear OS by Google as our top pick. The main difference is the lower 3ATM water resistance and they share a lot of features.

You’ll get the same reliable activity monitoring thanks to the built-in GPS. The built-in Google Assistant makes it super-easy to interact with the watch, while Google Pay lets you go shopping right after a jog without bothering to go home for your wallet.

Features apart, the Bradshaw 2 is all about fashion. Rose gold and blush colours certainly deliver an ultra-feminine look. Customisable dials give you the possibility to choose from a wide range of styles, while Bluetooth-enabled calling brings further value. Oversized yet still feminine, the Access Bradshaw 2 is one of the best women’s watches under $500 you can get your hands on.

3. Kate Spade New York Scallop Smartwatch

A fine example of modern functionalities packed in a timeless design

Michael Kors might be dominant in the women’s smartwatch world, but Kate Spade shows that even the greatest should fear competition. Its Scallop smartwatch is the definition of fun and elegance. Super-stylish to wear with formal attire, however fun enough to keep on your wrist for a girls’ night out, this watch is the epitome of good taste.

Furthermore you can mix and match various bands with different dials for a unique, customised timepiece. Customisable watch faces – some of which are animated – make it easy to showcase your personality in a simple way. Whether you need a formal accessory or a fun, easy-going one, the Scallop has it all.

Smarts and functions include phone notifications – including incoming calls – time zones, reminders, music control, as well as weather forecasts. It’s ideal for fitness tracking too, as it integrates with Google Fit to count your steps, heart rate, and daily calories.

Like the Michael Kors, the Scallop runs on the Wear OS by Google and is compatible with Android and iOS phones.

4. Garmin Venu 2

The perfect watch under $500 for fitness enthusiasts

In a world where most brands are focused on creating cute hybrid watches for ladies and huge smartwatches for men, Garmin Venu 2 stands out. It’s beautiful, bright, designed with performance in mind, and perfect for women.

Sure, it might be a bit larger than your regular watch. But in the end, if you aim for performance and need a wearable that can keep up with your progress, then this might be it.

From a visual standpoint, it’s not as stylish as the Michael Kors or Kate Spade, but it’s not ugly either. Perhaps a smaller version would have been better, but all it takes is a quick look at its tech features to change your mind about this beauty.

    An array of functions makes it shine. Built-in GPS tracks your activity and records important metrics, such as pace, distance, and burnt calories. All-day heart rate monitoring and a range of predefined sports profiles can cover all needs.

    Acting as a motivational coach, the Venu comes with easy-to-follow workouts you can watch on the bright AMOLED screen and is compatible with Spotify, Deezer, and Amazon Music for phone-free listening. No doubt, it’s a great choice for the fitness enthusiast or performance-oriented athlete out there.

    5. Samsung Galaxy Watch Active 2

    If you’re addicted to Samsung perhaps the Galaxy Watch Active 2 could be the best choice for you.

    It may not be designed specifically for women, but comes in two sizes that make it perfect for most wrists. Customisable watch faces and a variety of colours throw in versatility. Delicate flower faces and other girly designs make it perfect for women.

    Looks apart, we love its features. From heart and health monitoring to full smartphone integration, fitness tracking, and both Android and iOS compatibility, this smartwatch knows how to satisfy. It’s lightweight and fit for any occasion, from working out to sleeping in. A perfect choice for all tech-savvy ladies.

    6. Apple Watch 6/SE

    If you are an apple fan and want a watch to complement your style, the Apple Watch 6 or SE is definitely a very good choice. It’s user friendly, robust, feature rich and intuitive. One of the best watches around from all perspectives including fitness tracking, health monitoring and style options, being the most sought after watch and the amount of band and color choices.

    The ability to easily answer and make calls using the touchscreen or Siri is a winning feature we all love. Endless watch faces and probably the most trustworthy smartwatch brand around. Either the SE or the 40mm GPS model should do the trick at the $500 price tag. Do you absolutely need the cellular version? It’s still “only” $429.
