Men's watch Riedenschild red silicone strap 46 mm diver

The first thing you notice is the red dial against the rose gold-tone steel case: bold, but kept in check by clean lines and a plain, legible layout. This is a men's diver from Riedenschild, powered by a Miyota 1S13 quartz movement, with a date window and a rotating bezel.

Reading the dial

The red face is easy to read at a glance, even on the move. The hands and hour markers carry a luminescent coating, so once charged by light they stay visible in the dark. The date sits in a small window. The rotating bezel lets you track elapsed time: line its marker up with the minute hand, then read off how long has passed.

Case and water resistance

The stainless steel case measures 46 mm across and 13 mm thick, so it is a large, solid watch best suited to wider wrists or anyone who likes a substantial piece. If you are unsure, our watch size guide will help you decide. The sapphire crystal resists scratches well and its anti-reflective treatment keeps glare down. The crown screws down onto the case, so always tighten it fully before swimming. A helium valve lets out gas built up during saturation dives, a detail normally found on professional diving watches. Water resistance is rated at 100 ATM. After a swim in the sea, rinse the watch in fresh water and have the seals checked from time to time.

Strap and movement

The red silicone strap is made for active use and rinses clean under the tap. The width between the lugs is 22 mm, worth noting if you ever want a replacement strap. Quick-release spring bars free the strap in one movement, with no tools. Inside, the quartz movement is accurate and needs no winding or adjusting, only a battery change now and then.

On the wrist it suits a run, a session at the gym or a weekend of DIY, and the bright strap gives a plain wardrobe a single confident touch of colour. It comes in a presentation box, which makes it easy to give as a gift.
