A smartphone is one of the many essentials that I can’t live without while I am doing my travels; but even if one of its many helpful functions is to display time, I find that keeping a wristwatch is something that I just can’t skimp out on — not only can I easily see the time swiftly but it’s also a great accessory! Now, when it comes to the best and timeless piece, my new favorite would have to be Daniel Wellington watches [website].
About Daniel Wellington
The founder, Filip Tysander, once met an interesting British man during his travels who loved to wear vintage watches with old NATO straps. His name was Daniel Wellington.
Inspired by his classic and minimalistic style, he set out to develop his own line of watches that are not only clean and elegant in design but which has different patterns and colors.
Watch Styles
NATO STRAP. This was invented back in the 70s by the British navy and Daniel Wellington has made it a point to offer an array of colors so that it can match whatever outfit or mood you may have.
LEATHER STRAP (& WATCHES). It helps to note now that all of Daniel Wellington’s watches have interchangeable straps so you can choose to put on a leather strap too! Rest assured, they are only made of genuine leather and you can have your choice of brown, dark brown, or black (for the color) and silver or rose gold (for the brace).
Watch Review
As of this moment, you can choose a watch that’s plated in either silver or rose gold. Sizes are: 26mm, 34mm, and 36mm.
For my watch, I chose one in brown leather with a rose gold 26mm watch. I’ve been wearing it for a while now and it’s really a timeless piece and a versatile one too — I can wear it with my casual outfits, and also with more formal ones and it stays in tip-top shape even after all the time that I’ve been using it.

I really like this watch. I love the simplicity of it, especially with the leather bands. It’s the kind of simple, classic styling that lets you know it’s a truly quality time piece.
Yes, exactly! Very ‘timeless’. I’m glad you agree ;)
These look like amazing watches!! I know my husband wears a watch daily and having one that is practical is a must have for him. Love that this watch has different watch sizes available to purchase!!
Oh I bet your husband will love this Tammilee!
Such a beautiful watch. I would love the Nato Straps and I prefer the silver watch heads. I would love to have one of these watches, looks like they’d be great for this summer.
It was actually hard for me to pick the designs because I wanted them all! haha :)) For sure, these are great (for any season even!)
I LOVE the colors available in the straps for this watch. I like them all. I do seem to be liking the blue and pink the best. How fun would that be. They look like great watches. I am actually in the market for a new time piece so I need to check these out further!
That’s very ‘timely’ then ;) I bet you’ll love this one!
That really is quite a lovely piece! I never use a watch anymore, but sometimes I think it’d be nice to have a pretty one and learn to wear it again. I avoid things on my wrists since I’m typing all day at work, but I could get one I could wear out. It’d be a nice accessory to have.
I’m on my laptop everyday too but it has become a habit of mine to put it on everytime I go out and about. Nothing can beat a good ol’ watch ;)
