Life in the metros is pretty hectic especially for those of us living in the maximum city. In Mumbai, travelling to work meant catching the 8.06 am train to reach office in time. As usual, I was among the first ones to get into the 1st class ladies’ compartment that day. Settling down in my seat to read the newspaper, I casually looked at my wrist to check the time. With a start, I realised my watch had slipped off in the rush to secure a seat. By then, the train had already zipped out of the station and perhaps my watch too was left behind.
My trusty old Titan timepiece was lost and now I needed a new one. I didn’t have the time to do the rounds of malls to find something to my liking. My colleague Lata suggested we check out options online. A few searches later, the City Watches, India website showed a promising array of women’s watches.
Lata and I shortlisted the Swatch Irony White Chain Quartz Women’s watch, but before placing an order I wanted compare prices at different sites. Turned out that I was getting the best deal at Citywatches.in https://www.citywatches.in/product/swatch-irony-white-chain-quartz-yss254g-womens-watch/.
Swatch Irony White Chain Quartz YSS254G Women’s Watch is an elegant everyday watch – just what I needed. Built of stainless steel, the sturdy watch case had a silver dial with white Arabic numeral indices. The 25mm case size was just right for my wrist; at 8mm thickness this is a reasonably slim and lightweight piece.
The watch face is covered with a mineral crystal. The Swatch Irony YSS254G features a Swiss made quartz movement and is 30 meters water resistant. The stainless-steel chain-link bracelet has white enamel on the chain loops and is held together with a jewellery clasp. Overall, the Swatch Irony White Chain Quartz YSS254G looks good enough to wear everyday to work. On occasion it could also complement formal wear.
Everything at https://www.citywatches.in looked good, the price tag was the lowest there – I went ahead with the purchase. My Swiss made Swatch arrived in five days’ time. It was properly packed and carries two years warranty. Sleek and shiny, fresh out of the box, the Swatch Irony White Chain Quartz YSS254G Women’s Watch was an attractive timepiece for an affordable price.
Swatch is one of the most affordable Swiss-made brands that offer robust, elegant and quality timepieces. You could choose from among the sturdy everyday watches or the dressier pieces to suit your budget and style.
I’ve been wearing my Swatch Irony White every day since it arrived, although it is too early for me to comment on its performance. But one thing is certain – I absolutely love this watch, it’s comfortable, classy and elegant.
