Raptor gold-tone women's watch green leather strap

Some watches ask for attention, and some simply fit into the day without any fuss. This Raptor model belongs to the second kind. It is light on the wrist at 8 mm thick, the quartz movement keeps accurate time without winding or setting, and the analogue dial reads at a glance, whether you are on the move or sitting at a desk.

The dial is a soft green with fine hour markers, restrained rather than showy. Around it sits a round gold-tone metal case measuring 36 mm across, a size that looks considered on a slim wrist without disappearing. The model is called Sunny, though its mood is calm and polished rather than bright.

The green leather strap is 18 mm wide and comfortable from the first days of wear. It fastens with a classic pin buckle, and the complete watch measures 23.5 cm from end to end. Green and a warm metal tone work easily with neutrals, so a white shirt, a knit in oatmeal or a navy coat all sit well beside it.

Inside is a Miyota 2035 quartz movement, precise and undemanding. When the battery eventually runs down, a watchmaker can replace it in a few minutes. The crystal is mineral glass. Water resistance is rated at 3 ATM, which is enough to cope with splashes, but this watch is not meant for the shower or for swimming.

It also makes a thoughtful gift for someone who prefers quiet details to loud ones. If the colour and finish appeal to you, you will find more in our collection of gold-tone watches for women.
