FASHION | CLUSE watch first impressions

Hey there,

recently I got a watch by the brand Cluse. The reason for that purchase was first that I needed a nice watch for every day and second that this particular watch was on a huge offer. And I found out about this brand while browsing through Instagram. Cluse is working with a lot of influencers and advertizes their watches a lot in social media. I purchased this watch myself.
The colour is very neutral. It is grey but with a hint of beige. I guess the more wear time you give this one, the more it fades into a beige colour. The quality of the leather strap is very good. It is a high quality brand but cheaper than Daniel Wellington for example. The clock-face is huge although this model is one of the smallest they offer in general. But I guess it is just trendy at the moment to carry bulky watches. It is such a timeless piece. Anyone can wear such a style. Because I got it with a discount I am satisfied with the value to money ratio but you do pay for the name. At the end of the day it is just a watch with a large clock-face and leather straps that are changeable. Of course it has good quality and it looks very elegant on your arm but I wouldn't say that it is worth about 70 Euros. I hope it will last quite some time but I will keep you updated. The watch is water-splash-proof. I've tested this. But you can't dive very deep with this watch. Further technical information you can find below. It is a fashion piece and not a very functional watch. It has no clockhand for seconds, only minutes and hours.
 Information on the model: 
- stainless steel back
- Japan movt
- 3 atm water resistant
- model: CL18215
- Cluse La Bohème CL18215

Do you own a watch by the brand Cluse and are the prices of the models justifiable in your opinion?
