Raptor brown ladies' watch steel bracelet

At 32 mm across and just 7 mm thick, this Raptor sits neatly on the wrist and slips under a cuff without catching. The round case is silver-tone, and the proportions are modest enough to suit most wrist sizes. If you are unsure how a watch of this size will look on you, our watch size guide explains how to judge it and how to adjust the links.

The dial is a quiet shade of brown, with simple hour markers in place of numerals. Nothing competes for attention, which gives the watch a calm, composed face. The brown bracelet is stainless steel, made up of links, so it has a little more presence than a leather strap while keeping the same warm tone. It is 14 mm wide, and the full length, watch included, is 20 cm.

The bracelet closes with a deployment clasp that fastens in a single click and holds securely. To fit it to your wrist, you remove one or more links. It is the kind of watch that moves easily from the working week to a weekend dinner, and it pairs well with neutral knitwear, tailoring and denim alike.

Inside is a Miyota GL30 quartz movement with an analogue display, accurate and fuss-free, and a mineral glass protects the dial. The watch is splash-resistant, so rain and handwashing are fine, but it should not be worn in the shower or in water.
