The Spectator Bear

Spectator Bear’s sophisticated nonchalance—mixing a camel-hair overcoat, a sweatshirt, and saddle oxfords for a day at the polo field—represents Polo’s signature mix of classic sport and youthful attitude.

TWO STRAPS INCLUDED

Swiss-Made Movement

The Polo Bear watch is powered by a Swiss-made, RL300-1 caliber movement. The mechanical self-winding chronometer features 25 jewels with an approximate 42-hour power reserve.

The movement is hand-finished with vertical Côtes de Genève stripes and circular graining known as Perlage. These fine details are visible from the exhibition case back, which includes a commemorative 50th anniversary plaque set over the rotary.

The Polo Bear

Each iteration of the iconic Polo Bear is inspired by one of Ralph Lauren’s own ways of dressing, showcasing the wide range of Polo styles and how Ralph confidently switches between them. The original, Preppy Bear, debuted in 1991 as a limited-edition run of 200 stuffed bears, dressed in miniaturized Polo apparel and produced by Steiff, the famed German toy manufacturer. In the years since, the Polo Bear has appeared with all kinds of new outfits on a variety of items, from neckties to jumpers and beyond.

Tie-inspired Straps

In honour of the first piece Ralph Lauren ever designed—the necktie—each Polo Bear watch comes with a patterned strap crafted from necktie silk, in addition to a leather strap of French calfskin or exotic alligator.
