Individual Reviews
1. Best Watch for Women- Michael Kors MK3477 - Mini Slim Runway ($109.90)
- 2 Year International Warranty
- Michael Kors Gold-Tone Mini Slim Runway Watch
- Japanese-quartz Movement
- Case Diameter: 33mm
- Water resistant to 50m (165ft: in general, suitable for short periods of recreational swimming, but not diving or snorkeling
Why We Chose This Product:
The MK3477 is one of those watches that looks much more expensive than it really is. This is by no means a cheap watch but it is not nearly as expensive as it would appear at first glance. The materials that have been used have been chosen carefully, maximizing the build quality of the watch without driving up its price.
Of course, it doesn’t matter what a watch is made from if it isn’t comfortable to wear on your wrist. Thanks to its small profile and elegant design, the MK3477 sits unobtrusively on your wrist. This is the kind of watch that you can wear all day without noticing.
Like any Michael Kors watch, this is a piece that is built to withstand the usual daily rigors that your watch goes through. However, if you are looking for a watch that is going to serve you well for a number of years, you might want to go for something a little more premium.
Specifications:
- Materials: Stainless steel (case, band, bezel)

Why We Chose This Product:
If you are the kind of person who values the ability to personalize their accessories then this is the watch for you. Fossil is one of the better businesses when it comes to providing customization options to its users and this watch is no exception. The band has been designed so that it is quick and easy to change without any tools. There is also a wide range of potential bands for you to choose from with options to suit every occasion. That means that you can easily use this watch for different occasions by simply switching the band.
Fossil is also known for attention to detail and quality components. The use of stainless steel throughout this watch’s design might not be very inspired. But as is always the case with Fossil products, every component of this big and heavy woman’s watch feels solid and worthy of the Fossil brand.
The watch face is much bigger than most women’s watches. But when it looks this good, who cares? Another thing we really like about the visual design of this watch is the inclusion of a luminous-tipped second-hand. This is a feature that you don’t see as much anymore but it’s one we really like.

- Materials: Stainless steel (case, band, bezel)

- Water resistant to 100 m (330 ft): In general, suitable for swimming and snorkeling, but not scuba diving
Why We Chose This Product:
If you are in the market for a watch that stands out then this is an option well worth considering. The Parker Gold-Tone Watch is available in a wide range of two-tone color schemes. Each of the available options gives the watch a completely different personality but they are all just as striking aesthetically. Regardless of the color scheme that you opt for, you will be getting an incredibly sturdy watch.
Michael Kors has managed to carve out it outs own unique slice of the woman’s watch market by offering women watches that deliver the size and design ethos of a men’s watch in pieces that are carefully crafted for the women’s market. The Parker is one of the most ‘manly’ of the women’s watches that Michael Kors offer, but it is a fantastic piece for women who prefer a larger watch and who need something that is physically more resilient than most smaller women’s watches.
Specifications:
- Materials: Stainless steel (case, band, bezel)
- Weight: 4.2 ounces
- Water resistance: 330 ft
- Quartz movement
- Resin band

4. Forth Best Watch for Women- Michael Kors Bradshaw Stainless Steel 43MM Chronograph Watch (Price not available)
- Michael Kors women's bradshaw chronograph red stainless steel watch

- 43mm case, 20mm band width, mineral crystal, Quartz movement with analog display, imported
- Red, stainless steel bracelet
- Water resistant up to 100m: Can be worn bathing, swimming or snorkeling and shallow diving
Why We Chose This Product:
Michael Kors premium unisex option has proven to be a big hit despite its high price point. The watch is available in a number of different colors. Every design that we have seen is bold and vibrant. It is nice to see a watch manufacturer like Michael Kors taking a chance with less subtle and more attention-grabbing color options, not everyone is looking for something subtle and subdued.
The Bradshaw feels like a solid premium product and the build quality is top-of-the-line. Unfortunately, this just doesn’t feel like a premium watch when it is on your wrist. For this price, you would expect a manufacturer like Michael Kors to be offering something more comfortable to wear throughout the day.
Specifications:
- Materials: Stainless steel (case, band, bezel)
- Weight: 5.8 ounces
- Water resistance: 330 feet
Pros
Cons
5. Fifth Best Watch for Women- Nine West Women's NW/2122RGWT ($33.16)
- Slightly domed mineral crystal lens; dark pink dial with 3D printed floral design; rose gold-tone hands
- White strap with buckle closure
- Japanese-quartz Movement
- Case Diameter: 32mm
- Not water resistant
Why We Chose This Product:
This is a really beautiful little watch and is a great choice for anyone on a budget. This isn’t the kind of watch that is going to be with you for decades, and that is reflected in its sub-$30 price point. However, if you are looking for an attractive accessory to go with an existing outfit or you just need a watch that will see you through the immediate future, here is the ideal watch for you. Don’t think that just because this watch is cheap it is not attractive or well-designed. What this watch lacks in expensive materials it more than makes up for with its unique profile and minimalist face design. We have seen much more expensive watches than this that don’t look nearly as good.
The best part about this watch is that it is super lightweight and therefore one of the most comfortable watches we’ve ever worn. Just remember to take it off before you jump in the water. For all its advantages, this watch lacks any kind of water resistance, unfortunately.
Specifications:
- Materials: Metal (case, bezel), plastic (band)
- Weight: 1 ounce
- Water resistance: None
