Raptor women's brown wooden watch 38 mm grey dial

Warm brown wood with a soft grey dial is a pairing that suits the quieter end of your wardrobe: oatmeal knits, camel coats, cream shirts, dark denim and the odd olive or navy. This Raptor watch has none of the shine of a metal piece, and that is rather the point. It adds a natural note to an outfit without asking for attention.

The case is made of wood, and in this model it is walnut. Wood is light on the wrist, and the grain differs from one watch to the next, so yours will have a pattern of its own. At 38 mm across and 10 mm thick, the round case is noticeable without being large, a comfortable size for an everyday watch.

The dial is grey, with Arabic numerals that make the time easy to read at a glance. It stays calm and legible, which suits the understated look of the brown case and bracelet. It is a watch you can wear from a Monday meeting to a Saturday dinner without changing a thing.

The brown bracelet is made of links and is 17 mm wide, with a total length of 23.5 cm including the case. To get the fit right, you simply remove one or more links, and our watch size guide explains how. The deployant clasp keeps the watch secure when you open it, so it will not slip off your wrist or drop.

Inside is a quartz movement with an analogue display, so the time stays accurate without any fuss. The mineral glass helps protect the dial from the small knocks of daily life. Water resistance is rated at 3 ATM, which covers splashes and hand washing. Take it off before a shower or a swim, as you would with any wooden watch.
