Ralph Lauren Ralph & Ricky Bear Watch
In celebration of love, unity, and timelessness, Ralph Lauren presents the Ralph & Ricky Bear Watch, inspired by the designer’s longtime relationship with his wife and muse Ricky. The charming new timepiece showcases two bears holding hands in signature looks modeled after a 1996 photograph of the couple walking together at their estate in Bedford, New York.
“I aspire to create watches that portray a way of life and authenticity. Like everything I design, I want them to have a character and an enduring sense of style and luxury.”– Ralph Lauren
