Raptor brown watch for women 37 mm dot markers

The first thing you notice is how warm it looks. Brown on brown, with a case made of wood rather than metal, this Raptor watch has a quiet, natural presence that doesn't ask for attention. It sits somewhere between a piece of jewellery and a well-chosen everyday accessory.

The dial is a soft brown that sits comfortably with most colours in a wardrobe. Round dot markers in a silver tone mark the hours, fine and well spaced, and they stand out clearly against the darker background. Nothing crowds the face, which is exactly why it reads so easily.

At 37 mm across and 11 mm thick, the round case is noticeable without being imposing. Wood keeps it light on the wrist, and because the grain of each case is different, no two watches look exactly alike. The brown strap is made of links, which gives a polished, considered look, and it closes with a butterfly clasp that folds in two, so no buckle shows. The strap is 16 mm wide and the watch measures 19 cm in total.

Inside, a Miyota 2035 quartz movement keeps accurate time and needs no fuss. The glass is mineral, and the display is analogue. Water resistance is 3 ATM, which means it can cope with the odd splash, but it should be taken off for the shower or the pool.

It fits easily into a working week and a relaxed weekend alike, whether you wear it with a shirt or a knit. It also makes a thoughtful gift for someone who likes natural materials. If you would like to compare it with similar styles, have a look at our classic women's watches.
