I can’t deny it, I adore watches and I don’t feel complete if I go out without a timepiece to adorn my wrist. Until as recently as a few years ago I didn’t own nor wear a watch at all, however on my 24th birthday I was gifted a truly exquisite watch, and I’ve not been without a watch on my wrist since.
The humble watch can change the whole dynamic of a look, whilst offering expression of self. I don’t feel like a particularly stylish person, rather more basic and a bit vanilla. Fashion has never been my forte, I have always aired more toward beauty than fashion. As I gradually work on developing my own personal style I rely a lot on my accessories to add a little something extra to an otherwise simple look. As I am never without my wrist candy I feel that I can never have too many watches.
I was recently contacted by a lovely representative from Adexe London who very kindly asked if I would like to receive one of their watches, and that I was able to choose from the selection on their website. I was overwhelmed by the vast selection of watches on offer, all in varying sizes, styles and colours to compliment both men and women. After much deliberation I settled on the gorgeous and sophisticated Freerunner petite style.
Now the proud owner of the beautiful Freerunner Petite Black & Rose Gold Watch* to add to my collection. A Timeless and elegant design with its minimal approach proving that in this case, less is most definitely more. Complete with its sleek black strap, and an equally sleek and simplistic black face with just the right amount of rose gold accenting, this watch is a timeless beauty. The Freerunner also comes in a larger size and can be both worn by both men and women. For my small wrists I felt the petite size would be just right.
It arrived beautifully presented in a simple black box bearing the name Adexe on top, complete with a classic black, with white detailing hand-tied bow, the watch nestled safely inside. With that you also receive an alternating strap in either black or brown, but you are welcome to request a different colour subject to availability.
The simple, yet stylish design of the Freerunner is what I was initially drawn too. The black strap, hand crafted from genuine Italian leather, and the rose gold hardware hand-polished stainless steel. The hour points identified by simple rose gold batons with matching rose gold hour and minute hands, the seconds accounted for within the smaller sub-dial. Due to the very neat and simplistic nature I find it easy and effortless to read time from.
Since receiving this elegant timepiece I’ve been unable to take it off my wrist, due to its classic design it compliments each and every outfit choice I have made. The practical design lends itself equally well to both daytime or evening attire. It has a very modern feel, whilst retaining a classic design. I have received numerous compliments on the watch since I began wearing it. It makes a great addition to my collection.

That watch looks stunning! Personally I don’t really wear watching but I love a simple but pretty necklace to finish off an outfit.
I am obsessed with watches. I think they are a really underrated accessory as well as it being extremely practical.
I adore this watch, it’s such a beautiful time piece xx
I don’t usually wear watches (or any kind of jewellery to be honest, which I should) but I really believe it makes you look more professional and put together! This one looks really classy, I love it! xx
