Gorgeous for bigger wrists…

At first look this is a truly stand-out gorgeous watch, I’ve owned Fossil watches before and it’s the prettiest watch face I’ve had, with the pearlescent face reflecting a rainbow of colours in a classy subtle way. However, it is also the biggest watch face and the watch itself was huge. In order to wear it, I had to have every link removed and I don’t have particularly small wrists! I am an average build, size 10. This made the locking mechanism feel enormous, and it just doesn’t fit ‘right’. The face also dominated my arm and I don’t feel overly comfortable wearing it, as it simply doesn’t look right. The strap itself with the gold and silver links doesn’t look as expensive and classy as I had hoped (and I think was probably the design aim), but I don’t feel it lends itself to a design of a higher end price watch. The gold is very bright, and looks cheaper than I was expecting.
The jewels round the edge of the face weren’t as tasteful as I was hoping either, they’re a little too blingy for me. The size of the face would also be better without them in my opinion as it would reduce the overall size!
For the right size arm, this is a nice looking watch and I do really like the pearlescent face - however if I’d seen it in real life before ordering and tried it on, I wouldn’t have purchased.
