Looking for a watch with no metal

Hi,
My wife is allergic to metal so can not wear a watch that has metal in contact with her skin, such as in the strap on the plate on the back of the watch.
She currently wears a Baby G with fabric strap but these look bulky.
Can anyone recommend a different type of watch with no external metal parts?
Thanks.

I have the same problem not only with watches but also buttons on jeans etc. I find that applying a layer of clear nail varnish works. Hth

They are cheap enough to have a choice of colours to match different outfits :money:If you can keep your head when all around you are losing theirs, its just possible you haven't grasped the situation0 -
Look up breo watches on amazon or ebay. Some of these have the case made entirely of silicone.

I have the same problem. My mum got me a lovely one from Next with a leather strap that goes behind the watch face. Think it was about £25. They also had some nice ones in Fossill.0
