Raptor silver-tone women's watch leather strap

The red leather strap is the first thing worth noticing on this Raptor watch. Leather softens and settles with wear, so the strap becomes more supple and more yours the longer you wear it. It measures 18 mm wide, and with the watch included the whole piece is 24 cm long.

Against that warm red sits a silver-tone dial, soft in finish and easy to read. Round hour markers punctuate it with a light touch, and the analogue display keeps everything calm and uncluttered. It is the kind of dial that never competes with what you are wearing.

The round metal case has a silver-tone finish that matches the dial, and it measures 38 mm across and 8 mm thick. That gives it a confident presence on the wrist without feeling heavy. A classic pin buckle fastens the strap, simple and familiar.

Inside, a Miyota 2035 quartz movement keeps accurate time and asks nothing of you. The glass is mineral. If you enjoy browsing similar pieces, you can find more in our silver-tone watches for women.

Water resistance is rated at 3 ATM, which is enough to cope with a passing shower of rain. Do take it off before showering or swimming, as leather and water are better kept apart.

Quiet, polished and easy to wear, this women's watch suits an ordinary Monday as well as a Saturday evening out. It would also make a thoughtful gift for a birthday, or simply for someone you would like to please.
