Raptor mother-of-pearl women's watch steel bracelet

The first thing you notice is the glow. The mother-of-pearl dial catches the light and shifts softly as your wrist moves, soft rather than showy, and still easy to read at a glance. Small dots mark the dial and tiny crystals sparkle along it.

The round case measures 35 mm across and 9.5 mm thick, a classic size for a women's watch that sits neatly under a cuff. The case is metal in a silver-tone finish, matched to the bracelet so the whole watch looks of a piece.

The bracelet is stainless steel with silver-tone links, 16 mm wide and 20.5 cm long in total. A deployment clasp closes it with a single click, and it opens just as easily when you take the watch off.

Inside is a Miyota 2035 quartz movement with an analogue display, so the time stays reliable without any winding. The mineral glass resists scratches better than plastic would. Water resistance is 3 ATM, enough for splashes and a shower of rain. Take it off before bathing or swimming.

This Raptor model, named Gloriani, works with everyday outfits as easily as dressier ones. If you like a bit more sparkle, browse our women's jewellery watches to compare styles. To keep it looking its best, read our advice on caring for your watch.
