Radley RY22054 Black Leather Strap Watch - W51619
Ref. RY22054
Sits in Radley’s upper tier here — more premium than three quarters of the Radley watches we list, which start at £40.
Price range £40 to £140 across 114 Radley watches in stock.At 18mm square, this sits as much in the territory of a bracelet as a watch — the case is small enough that the gold PVD housing and black dial read as a composed pairing of colour rather than as a dial in a case. The gold-tone markers and hands keep the face clean without making it feel bare. The tapered black leather strap grounds what would otherwise be a very bright piece of hardware, and the pin buckle sits close to the wrist in a way that lets it disappear under a sleeve.

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.
