The Top Five Balmain Watches For Women

Arabesques

The wavy pattern—characteristic of the arabesque form—present on the outer steel case of this gorgeous 27mm timepiece bestows its rectangular case with elegance.  The milky mother-of-pearl dial contains only two Arabic numerals for the hours—at six and 12 o’clock.  The rest of the hour markers are small and rounded, giving the dial a minimalist yet sophisticated look. Its silver-toned exterior extends to the brilliant steel bracelet offering uniformity in design, and the overall appearance makes it quite versatile in terms of everyday wear. This quartz timepiece is also resistant to water up to 50m.

Arcade

With its barrel-shaped (tonneau, in French) mien, the 24mm steel case of this wristwatch is complemented by a white mother-of-pearl dial and an attractive white leather strap. With the exquisite curvilinear design in silver, the rest of the dial only has two Arabic numerals at the nine and 12 o’clock positions, and linear indexes that mark seven, eight, 10 and 11 o’clock give it a refined look. The two dauphine hands for hours and minutes are in a darker shade of silver for greater legibility on the dial’s surface. Powered by a quartz movement and protected by a sapphire crystal glass, this timepiece is also water resistant up to 50m.

Madrigal Chrono Gent

This chronograph timepiece with a stunning dual-layered silver-toned dial has a suave charm. At 40mm, the case size is not too large or small. Chronograph watches often have larger diameters but this watch will sit perfectly on your wrist. Its dial is complemented by the faceted rose gold hands for hours, minutes and seconds, as well as the Arabic numerals for hours in  a similar, lighter shade. The sub-dials are conveniently placed at the 10, one and six o’clock positions, while the date aperture sits at the six o’clock position. The dial’s tone is lighter than the polished surface of the stainless steel case, and the brown leather strap emphasises its urbane look. This watch, with a water resistance of 50m, will complement your adventurous personality and also go well with any casual or formal attire.

Classic R Gent Tradition

This sleek 40.6mm quartz watch with the calibre 176 is designed to pair well with any formal attire. The textured dial in silver gets a unique look courtesy the polished silver ring housing rose gold Roman numerals. The sub-dial for the seconds balances the dial beautifully.  The Dauphine-style hands for hours and minutes are in rose gold, which look voguish and complement the rose gold bezel. While it can resist water up to 50m, its sapphire crystal glass and stainless steel bracelet with a PVD coat in rose gold will also withstand regular wear and tear.

Classic R Grande Tradition

This timepiece, with a 40mm case in stainless steel, has a handsome, legible silver dial. The Classic R Grande Tradition only has three Arabic numerals that indicate the time, making this watch desirable to any minimalist.

Iconic

Going for an all-silver look, this quartz timepiece also has three spread-out sub-dials at the 10, two and six o’clock positions. Given the smaller diameter of this watch, at 39mm, the sub-dials do not overlap with the hour markers. Instead, the Roman numerals marking the hours are enclosed in a ring separating the three registers. Even the rectangular date window at the six o’clock position is perfectly legible. The faceted hands for hours and minutes are in a dual-tone silver and black finish, offering a pleasant contrast against the dial and perfectly complementing the black seconds hand. With such pleasing aesthetics, this watch is bound to raise your style quotient in any situation.
