Summary: Pick a case size that suits your wrist, a dial style you will wear often, and a strap that is comfortable in heat. Read the water resistance rating carefully: most fashion watches are only splash-resistant. Check each product page for its details.
Case size
Smaller cases look delicate on slim wrists; larger cases make a bolder statement. Compare the case size on the product page with a watch you already own.
Quartz explained
A quartz watch runs on a battery and keeps accurate time with little care. The battery needs replacing every so often.
Water resistance ratings (general guide)
| Marking | Generally means |
|---|---|
| No rating | Keep away from water |
| 3 ATM / 30 m | Splashes and hand washing only |
| 5 ATM / 50 m | Light water contact, not diving |
| 10 ATM / 100 m | Swimming |
Only rely on the rating shown on the product page. If none is listed, treat the watch as not water-resistant.
Strap
Metal straps are durable; leather-look and silicone straps can feel lighter. In summer heat, choose what feels comfortable all day.
Gift ideas
Crystal-detail watches are a popular gift for birthdays, Eid and anniversaries, for example Classic Round Luxe Crystal Watch or Royal Sunburst Crystal Watch. See all in Watches.
