Daniel Wellington Iconic Link 28 DW00100214: Black Dial on Rose Gold Links

The Daniel Wellington Iconic Link 28 DW00100214 is a 28 mm women’s quartz watch that sets a black dial in a rose gold stainless steel case, on a rose gold three-piece link bracelet. It is the black-dial counterpart of the white-dialled DW00100213, and shares its compact size and construction. The effect is darker and a little more dressy, with the rose gold standing out clearly against the face.

Case and Wrist Presence

The case is round, 28 mm across and about 8 mm thick, made from 316L stainless steel with a rose gold plated finish. The polished surface catches the light and gives the watch a jewellery-like look. At this size it is a small watch, built for wrists where a larger dial would look oversized.

The finish continues on to the bracelet, so case and band match exactly.

• 28 mm case – small and light on the wrist
• 316L stainless steel – rose gold plated for a warm tone
• Around 8 mm thick – slim enough for fitted cuffs

Dial Layout

The dial is solid black with twelve slim index markers and two rose gold hands for hours and minutes, with a thin seconds hand. There is no date and no sub-dial. This keeps the face tidy and lets the black field work as a backdrop for the rose gold detail.

Because the dial is dark, the markers stand out strongly, which makes the time easy to read at a glance.

• Black dial – strong contrast with the rose gold hands
• Twelve indexes – a clean, evenly spaced layout
• Time only – no date window or extra counters

Movement and Crystal

The watch is powered by a quartz movement, so it runs from a battery and needs no winding. Brand listings describe it as Japanese quartz. The crystal is mineral glass, hardened to resist everyday scratches. The result is a dependable, low-maintenance watch for regular wear.

Bracelet and Fit

The bracelet is a three-piece link design in rose gold stainless steel with a PVD coating, 14 mm wide at the lugs. It can be adjusted between roughly 130 and 187 mm by removing links, and a butterfly clasp secures it. The bracelet is fixed to the watch rather than interchangeable, so the metal band is part of its character.

Water Resistance

The watch is rated to 3 ATM (30 metres). This means it will handle rain, splashes and hand washing. The brand states it is not suitable for swimming or showering, so take it off before getting in the water.

Who This Watch Suits

Choose this reference if you like rose gold but prefer a dark dial to a pale one. It suits evening wear and black outfits particularly well, and it is small enough for daily use at work.

• Dark dial lovers – black with rose gold has a bold, tidy look
• Slim wrists – 28 mm sits close and light
• Gift giving – a classic bracelet watch from a well-known brand

Care and Maintenance

Wipe the watch with a soft cloth after wear. Keep the plated bracelet away from perfumes, chlorine and harsh cleaners, since these can dull the finish. Store it away from moisture and hard objects. Have the battery replaced by a watchmaker, who can reseal the case back afterwards.
