Raptor men's watch anthracite steel bracelet 44 mm

This Raptor is a men's quartz watch built for daily use: nothing to wind, nothing to set aside, and a steel bracelet that copes with the office, the commute and the weekend alike. The case is 44 mm across, round, in anthracite metal, and the dial is black.

Reading the dial

The black dial sits against the grey case, so the time is easy to read at a glance, even on the move. Simple line indexes mark the hours without cluttering the face. The display is analogue and the glass is mineral.

Size and water resistance

At 44 mm in diameter and 13 mm thick, this is a watch with real volume on the wrist, best suited to medium and larger wrists. If you are unsure how it will sit, our watch size guide explains how to match a case to your wrist. Water resistance is 3 ATM, which covers rain and hand washing. Take it off before showering or swimming.

Movement

Inside is a VX7 quartz movement. It needs no regular attention beyond an occasional battery change.

Bracelet and clasp

The stainless steel bracelet is anthracite and made of links, so it can be shortened by removing links. The guide above covers the method, and it is worth keeping any links you take out in case you need them later. A deployant clasp closes it with a click and means the watch is less likely to slip from your hand when you take it off. The width between the lugs is 22 mm, useful to know if you ever want a replacement strap, and the total bracelet length is 23.5 cm.

With its metal bracelet and plain, legible dial, this Raptor is easy to wear every day, at work or at the weekend.
