I discovered this brand in instagram and it was timely since I wanted to
replace my old watch from cluse. The rose gold of that watch faded and I
didn't like the look of it anymore so I wanted to replace it with something a
bit more adult looking and not with a leather strap anymore. I needed to
replace the strap of it since it did not look good and had visible wear and
tear after months of use.
While looking on their instagram page, this model caught my attention the
most. I never had a watch like this before. It is very elegant looking and
mature. I like that I can wear it all year round and can pair with any clothes
I wear because my old cluse one had a pink strap so during winter time, it's
not that versatile.
A fresh take on The Boxy watch, these two new duotone styles are a nod
to modern luxury. Each watch has either a white sunray etching dial and
a stainless steel strap combining 2 metals - silver/rose gold or
silver/gold. Stay bold with these mixed metal classics. As a special
edition, each of these styles is packed in a Rosefield signature pink
box.

I bought this at
deBijenkorfsince they had a 20% off promotion with the watches that day and I
immediately ordered it since I can't find any websites that had this watch
discounted. I remember I was looking even for influencer codes to use so I can
save some money but I did not find any codes. But now I noticed that
Rosefield's website does offer every now and then promotions that are even upto 40%
off so it's better to wait for that although not all models go on sale.
This came with a white sturdy box with additional tool and screws to adjust
the strap. I love the boxy shape of it and it just looks so feminine and I
feel like a matured woman. It is age appropriate for me unlike with my older
watches before. The rose gold and silver combo is perfect. The weight is also
good, not to heavy or light. You can adjust the date function but I don't
bother anymore since it won't be accurate anyway because every month has more
or less days and I don't really look at it.
Cons
You need to adjust this yourself. I made a mistake that I did what I did (you
will see it on my video below). If you have the proper tools, you can do it
easily and fast. They provided tools to adjust but you still need more than
that, tools that you can only find in a watch repair shop because if you do
what I did, you will break the tool they provided.
Pros
Excellent quality and it looks elegant and you will get compliments from
wearing it. Its does not fade easily which is amazing! I disinfect it everyday
with an alcohol because of the pandemic now but it still looks good. I brought
this to the beach a lot of times, also worn this while raining and it still
looks almost brand new. You will see some scratches but only when you really
look close to it but at far you won't notice at all. I can see that it is not
as bright rose gold like before but it still looks pretty good for me. I
thought this will only last me for a year like my cluse one but I can see
myself still wearing it for 2 years or even more which I'm really happy
about.
Here are my updates of this watch
My Unboxing
My 6th Month Update
My 1 Year Update
I hope these videos will be helpful for you in deciding if you want to get
it but for me it is worth it. Great quality for the price and I use this
everyday, even to work and it still looks good. I'm more amazed that even I
brought it with me during my vacation in the Philippines and went to several
beaches and worn it and still remained so pristine which I am very surprised
and was not expecting since the cluse I got did not last this long on me.
And after that I thought I would not buy anymore with the same price range
and from the trending brands since they are not good quality anyway. But to
my surprise, this watch stood the test of time. I highly recommend it if you
want a durable and timeless watch that is well priced. I am surely buying
again from them but I do hope this will last a little longer since I love
this design so much. They offer different versions of this watch as well and
much more other designs that I am sure you will find something for you as
well.
I avoided watch with steel straps for years since I thought it would be too
cold when I wear it during winter months but not at all. I don't even notice
it even if I'm outside during colder months. I just love every detail of
this watch and hopefully I can still use it in the years to come.
