Raptor men's watch 48 mm black steel bracelet black dial

The first thing you notice about the Raptor is the metal: a black stainless steel bracelet with real heft, cool against the skin, paired with a rose gold-tone case. At 48 mm across and 13 mm thick, it is a watch with presence. It is a quartz men's watch with a VD57 movement, sold as the Raptor Limited Alan.

Case and glass

The round case is metal in a rose gold-tone finish, topped with mineral glass. The diameter is large, so it suits wider wrists best. If you are unsure how 48 mm will sit on yours, our watch size guide explains how to measure. The watch weighs 63 g.

Dial and legibility

The black dial contrasts well with the hands. Arabic numerals alternate with baton markers, so you can read the time at a glance without counting marks.

Movement and water resistance

The VD57 quartz movement keeps accurate time with no winding. When the battery runs out, a watchmaker can replace it and check the seals at the same time. Water resistance is 3 ATM, which covers rain and hand washing. Take the watch off before a shower or a swim.

Bracelet and clasp

The black link bracelet is 25 mm wide and the total length is 24.5 cm. To adjust the fit, remove one or more links, and keep any you take out. A deployant clasp closes the bracelet with a click and stops the watch from slipping off when you take it off.

This is an easy watch to wear every day, from the office to the weekend, and it is part of our range of men's link bracelet watches.
