Review:
A very nice watch, but lacking some essential extras
This is a very nice watch; it is well made, stylish and very
pretty. The overall package could be
improved, though.
The face is a delicate rose-pink mother-of-pearl with a neat
ceramic band to match. The face markings
are simple and elegant in rose gold with a small diamond set at
twelve-o'-clock. The body of the watch
is a rose-gold colour to match and the whole effect is very pleasing. It keeps good time and the discreet second
hand will be a welcome feature for many people.
The watch is very nicely presented in a quality hinged box
with faux-leather interior and cushion, so it would make a very nice
present…but lacks some of the essential features for this, I think. There is no Certificate of Authenticity, nor
anything to say that the diamond and gold are genuine. More seriously, the band is not readily
adjustable and there are no instructions whatsoever about how to alter the band
to fit. It took me some time just to
figure out how to undo the clasp! The
clasp has an extender which can be removed to make the band smaller, but any
further adjustment by adding or removing links is not explained – and may not
even be possible, for all I can discover.
It's a shame that a simple presentational issue should
detract from a very nice, high-quality watch and I hope Anne Klein can sort
this out soon. Until they do, in spite
of its elegance and quality, I can only give this four stars.
