Lee Cooper LC08279.140 Women Watch

The Lee Cooper LC08279.140 is a gold-plated women's watch with a 29mm case and a dark brown malakyt dial. It suits anyone who wants a compact everyday timepiece with a warm metallic finish.

This Lee Cooper watch runs on a three-hand quartz movement and pairs a gold-plated super metal case with a matching gold metal bracelet. Mineral glass protects the round dial, and the 3 ATM rating handles splashes and brief immersion. The 29mm diameter keeps the profile slim on smaller wrists.

Key features and benefits of the Lee Cooper LC08279.140

• Case size 29mm: The compact diameter sits comfortably on slender wrists and slides under shirt cuffs without catching.
• Three-hand quartz movement: Hours, minutes and seconds are driven by a battery-powered calibre that needs no winding and stays accurate to within seconds per month.
• Super metal case with gold plating: The base alloy is lightweight and corrosion-resistant; the gold layer adds a warm tone that matches the bracelet.
• Round dark brown malakyt dial: The rich brown colour with a subtle stone-like pattern gives depth and makes the gold hands easy to read.
• Gold metal bracelet: The integrated bracelet continues the case finish, uses a folding clasp for security, and can be shortened by removing links.
• Mineral glass: Harder than acrylic, it resists everyday scratches better while staying more affordable than sapphire.
• Water resistance 3 ATM: Rated for 30 metres of static pressure, it withstands rain, hand-washing and accidental splashes but not swimming or showering.
• Two-year international warranty: The manufacturer covers defects in materials and workmanship for two years from purchase worldwide.

Who the women's watch is for

The Lee Cooper LC08279.140 fits women who prefer a smaller, dressy watch that works with both office wear and evening outfits. Its gold tone and brown dial complement warm colour palettes, and the 29mm size avoids the bulk of larger fashion watches.

• Daily commute or office settings where a subtle gold accent matches jewellery
• Dinner or events when a slim bracelet watch looks more refined than a sport model
• Gift buyers seeking a recognised brand with a two-year warranty at a mid-range price
• Anyone who finds 34mm-plus cases too wide or heavy on the wrist
• Collectors adding a compact malakyt-dial piece to a rotation

Less suitable if: you need a watch for swimming, diving or high-impact sports, because 3 ATM does not protect against sustained water pressure or shock.

Women's watch specifications

Using and caring for the Lee Cooper LC08279.140

Set the time by pulling the crown to the outermost position, turn until the correct hour and minute show, then push the crown back in to restart the movement. Wipe the case and bracelet with a soft dry cloth after exposure to sweat or cosmetics to preserve the gold plating.

• Avoid pressing the crown while the watch is wet; water can enter through the stem.
• Store away from strong magnets (speakers, magnetic clasps) to prevent the quartz movement from gaining or losing time.
• Have a jeweller check the bracelet pins and clasp once a year; loose links can cause the watch to slip off.
• Replace the battery at a service centre that can pressure-test the 3 ATM seal afterwards.
• Do not wear in hot tubs, saunas or while showering; heat and steam age the gaskets faster.

How to choose the right women's watch

When picking a dress watch, weigh case size against wrist circumference — this 29mm case suits wrists under 16cm. Decide between metal and leather straps; the integrated gold bracelet here cannot be swapped for leather without changing the look. Check water resistance for your routine: 3 ATM covers splashes only, so if you swim, look for 10 ATM or higher. Finally, match the dial colour to your wardrobe; the dark brown malakyt pairs well with cream, navy, olive and black.

Frequently asked questions

What is the case made of?

The case is super metal with a gold plating layer. Super metal is a lightweight alloy that resists corrosion, and the plating gives the warm gold colour.

How large is the watch face?

The case measures 29mm across, not including the crown. That is considered a small to mid-size women's watch.

Can I swim with this watch?

No. The 3 ATM rating only protects against splashes, rain and brief hand-washing. Swimming requires at least 10 ATM.

Is the bracelet adjustable?

Yes, the gold metal bracelet uses removable links. A jeweller or watch shop can shorten it to fit your wrist.

What type of movement does it use?

It uses a three-hand quartz movement (3H), powered by a button cell battery that typically lasts two to three years.

Does the dark brown dial fade over time?

Mineral glass blocks most UV light, so the malakyt dial colour stays stable with normal indoor and outdoor wear.

What does the two-year international warranty cover?

It covers manufacturing defects in the movement, case and bracelet for two years from the original purchase date, worldwide.

How does this model differ from larger Lee Cooper women's watches?

The LC08279.140 has a 29mm case, while many other Lee Cooper women's models use 34mm or larger cases and may offer different dial colours or leather straps.
