Radley RYS48-4027 Series 48 T-Bar AMOLED Smartwatch - W51521
Ref. RYS48-4027
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 £115 across 115 Radley watches in stock.Radley's Series 48 sits at the practical end of the brand's smartwatch range — a round 35mm case on a steel bracelet, designed to read as a conventional watch at a glance while carrying the health and connectivity tools its wearer actually uses day to day. The T-bar lug arrangement is the detail that separates it from the usual smartwatch silhouette, giving the case a cleaner join to the bracelet than a standard lug design would. Inside that case the 1.04-inch AMOLED panel runs always-on, which means the black dial face is never blank on the wrist. At 62 grams the bracelet has some presence, but the butterfly clasp and a fit range of 125mm to 185mm mean it can be worn close without fuss. Low-light reading comes from the screen itself rather than any applied lume, so it is only as readable in the dark as the brightness setting allows.

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
Will the glass scratch?
It can, over time. Mineral glass handles daily wear but will pick up fine scratches that sapphire would not.
Does it need a battery?
Yes. It is quartz, so expect a battery change every two to three years at a jeweller.
What size strap does it take?
14mm. 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, though at 35mm it sits in the range that suits anyone.
