Debenhams reduce £720 watch to £86 so 'beautiful' it gets shoppers 'several compliments'
Significant sales on high ticket items such as luxury watches could see shoppers saving hundreds of pounds if they know where to look. The Debenhams watch sale is a smart place to start, with incredible reductions on a number of time pieces, including from top-rated brand STÜHRLING Original.
Shoppers can save an impressive £633.75 off the StarSea Ladies' Quartz Fashion Diver Watch with Stainless Steel Link Bracelet in a deal that reduces it from £720 down to £86.25 - a saving of 88%. It's such a popular offer that two colours have already sold out, but a chic black and stylish blue are still available to snap up.
Now priced at less than £87, the watch makes an ideal gift for someone special, or a savvy time to invest in an accessory that should last a lifetime. Those that have never ordered from Debenhams before may be reassured by a customer who described the watch as 'beautiful' going to to say: "Well packaged, reasonable delivery time, as described."
The StarSea Quartz watch features a sleek 39mm case and a coin edge bezel atop a crystal-studded dial. It makes quite the statement, but is designed for both elegance and functionality, being water resistant up to 10 ATM and complemented with a link bracelet band. Reminiscent of a starry night sky, it's an unusual watch that shoppers say has garnered them 'several compliments on it already'.
For a cheaper option, the H Samuel sale is well worth a browse. The Sekonda Ladies' Grey Chronograph Dial Two Tone Bracelet Watch has been reduced from £79.99 to £40. It boasts rose gold and silver detailing, as well as a face adorned with sparkling crystals that sets it apart from the rest.
Amazon also have a number of designer watches on sale from London based brand Radley. The Women's Gold Plated Alpine Genuine Leather Strap Quartz Analogue Watch is 33% off, down to £39.99.
Nabbing the StarSea watch as a treat for themselves, one person wrote: "Fell in love with this watch online. Treated myself as a gift to me for my approaching 'BIG' birthday. So pleased when it arrived - it really is lovely. Comfortable to wear." The striking green band and dainty gold detailing gives it a sophisticated finish.
Another said: "Really pleased with watch works well looks good and good price arrived quickly as well." But, this wasn't the case for someone else, and they found the delivery and appearance of the watch disappointing, writing: "Took over a month to arrive finally received the item after sending a couple of emails to customer service. The item is not as vibrant as it looks in the picture. The blue face is rather dull in reality."
Focusing on practicality, a pleased shopper shared: "A beautiful heavy watch very high quality and keeps time excellently." Shoppers can pick up the StarSea Ladies' Quartz Fashion Diver Watch for £86.25 on the Debenhams website.

Anglesey environmental start-up marks first year in business
Ecodetect, based at M-SParc in Gaerwen, Anglesey, develops AI-powered wildlife detection systems to support marine renewable energy projects. The company was founded by Dr David Gold, a former geologist and oil and gas professional. Originally from Hertford and now living in Denbighshire, Dr Gold spent a decade in the oil and gas sector before moving into the renewables industry. Founder Dr David Gold (Image: Supplied) Dr Gold said: "Starting Ecodetect was a leap, but the right one. "It came at a pivotal moment in my life – the birth of my son – and what we are doing here isn't just for business; it's for his future, and for future generations." He said: "There was a real gap in the market, and I kept hearing the same frustrations from people in the sector, that data collection and analysis was slow and costly and delaying vital projects. "That's where Ecodetect comes in." In its first year, Ecodetect has earned several accolades, including North Wales Start-Up of the Year. The company's technology was also featured in the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory's OES-Environmental State of the Science report. Dr Gold said: "The response has been phenomenal, we've built a fantastic team, kicked off major projects in floating offshore wind and marine ecosystems, and begun assembling what I believe is the future of sub-aquatic monitoring." Ecodetect's system combines underwater video cameras with AI-driven recognition software to identify marine organisms—from whales and birds to plankton and plant life—in a matter of minutes.

Gold rises on increasing Fed rate-cut bets, weaker dollar
Aug 13 (Reuters) - Gold rose on Wednesday as expectations of a U.S. Federal Reserve interest rate cut in September gained traction following mild inflation data, while a weaker dollar bolstered bullion's demand. Spot gold gained 0.3% to $3,354.77 per ounce, as of 0802 GMT. U.S. gold futures for December delivery inched up 0.1% at $3,403.20. "Market participants are starting to debate if the Fed will do a 50 basis point cut at its September meeting following the comments from U.S. Treasury Secretary Bessent yesterday, with a focus on incoming weaker U.S. economic data supporting that," said UBS commodity analyst Giovanni Staunovo. Markets are pricing in a more than 90% chance of a Fed rate cut next month, after July's mild inflation bump signalled limited impact from U.S. import tariffs on consumer prices, with at least one additional reduction anticipated by year-end. Gold, a non-yielding asset often viewed as a safe haven during times of economic or geopolitical uncertainties, typically benefits from a low-interest-rate environment. The dollar index (.DXY), opens new tab hit a two-week low, making greenback-priced bullion more affordable for overseas buyers. Europe and Ukrainian leaders will speak with U.S. President Donald Trump at a virtual meeting on Wednesday ahead of his summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin, as they try to drive home the perils of selling out Kyiv's interests in pursuit of a ceasefire. "Don't expect those talks to meaningfully influence the gold market, (they) might trigger some short-term volatility. Near-term prices are likely to move sideways, until incoming U.S. economic (data) starts to support a faster (Fed) rate cut cycle," Staunovo said. Meanwhile, the U.S. and China extended their tariff truce by another 90 days, averting triple-digit duties on each other's goods. Elsewhere, spot silver rose 1.3% to $38.39 per ounce, platinum was up 0.8% to $1,346.05 and palladium gained 0.4% to $1,133.72.
