Stepping up in the same dial colour
The Lewis Lane collection is Radley's signature line, and this watch carries the detail that defines it: a Scottie dog charm stud set into the leather strap, the brand's most recognised mark rendered in gold-tone metal against the black leather. At 28mm the case sits close to the wrist without presence, which is precisely what a watch like this is built to do — accompany rather than announce. The pale gold PVD case picks up the coin-edge bezel and the black cabochon crown as small flourishes, while the dial combines matte and satin finishes so it shifts slightly as the light moves across it. The black leather strap is genuine and the tang buckle straightforward to adjust.

Learn more about Radley
Radley London was founded in 1998 as a handbag brand, and named for the founder's Scottish terrier. The dog became the logo, and remains the single most recognisable thing about the label — stamped, embossed, or hanging from a bag as a leather charm.
The watches are licensed rather than manufactured in-house, produced by a specialist watch maker under agreement and sold through the same department stores and jewellers as the bags.
They are designed as accessories to the accessories: slim cases, printed or textured dials, coloured leather straps, and the terrier appearing on the dial, the caseback or the strap keeper. Quartz movements, gift-market pricing.
Radley is a well-run British accessories brand and its watches are exactly what the label suggests they are — coordinated, characterful and inexpensive, rather than horological.

Frequently asked questions, and things you should know about this watch
Can I swim with it?
No. At 30m it will survive rain and handwashing, but not submersion of any kind.
Water resistance explainedWill the glass scratch?
It can, over time. Mineral glass handles daily wear but will pick up fine scratches that sapphire would not.
Sapphire, mineral and acrylic comparedDoes it need a battery?
Yes. It is quartz, so expect a battery change every two to three years at a jeweller.
Quartz, automatic and solar comparedWhat size strap does it take?
17.2mm. Any strap of that width will fit, and on most modern watches quick-release bars make the swap a two-minute job with no tools.
Is it a men's or women's watch?
Listed as women's.
