I'm looking for a watch for my wife who does not like analogue time, preferring and finding digital time format easier to read.

Looking for one that's "classic", ie, doesn't tell me how many steps she's walked or how many calories are in a banana 😁

Would love to find something maybe with white gold or opal somewhere. Maybe I'm dreaming ha ha, budget is up to €300.

Web searches have been fruitless so far.

Don't know about opal, but you can get Lady G-Shocks in rose gold.

Thanks Lorddrakul, unfortunately my wife doesn't like rose gold. The champagne gold option might fly though... but still not quite right.

Options are very limited.

Casio do lots of faux-metal vintage style watches for under €100. The cases are plastic with metallic paint or a thin chrome layer. I don't recommend for that reason - they feel cheap and the paint eventually flakes away revealing the plastic.

Their cheapest actual steel digital watch that Casio offer is the A1000. Runs from €70-130.

Looks nice, it's not rose gold, so I might swing the pink.

This one looks cool, like a petrol spill, but I don't think she'd wear it!

Does she want a watch or is it you who wants to buy her one?

Fair question! It's me that wants to buy her one. I could be straying into murky waters here, maybe it's such a personal choice I shouldn't even try to pick something she'd like.
