Bonbon watch with Duck design by Alexandra

It's a simple but chunky watch for me today with this bonbon watch.

The watch looks to be one of the Standard range of watches that go under the brand name Bonbon watch. Bonbon watches was started in 1989 by Alexandra Pisarz (just referred to as Alexandra on the watch itself). The first Bonbon watch store was opened in Disneyland Paris, and there are now stores throughout Paris, with the brand also appearing in the Japanese market in 2000.

The watches are designed with the theme of candy (with rounded edges and clear outer ring), and are made with acrylic cases and plexiglass to make them hardy. Inside there is a Swiss quartz movement, and the watches are hand finished in France.

This particular model does not appear on the website anymore, but is similar to many of the Standard range which sell for around ¥13,000 to ¥15,000. This model has no numbers on the dial, but appears to have an outline of a duck moulded into the face (or possibly on the movement itself judging by the placement of screws). It is a 3 hand dial design with a date window at the 3 o'clock position.
