Raptor men's watch blue dial 46 mm black steel bracelet

You glance at your wrist in a meeting, between emails, or on the walk to the station, and the blue dial of this Raptor men's watch tells you the time at once. The round 46 mm case is a statement piece, powered by a VD53 quartz movement with an analogue display.

Dial, case and movement

The dial is blue, with simple line markers in rose gold-tone that keep it uncluttered. The case is metal, also in blue, and measures 46 mm across and 14 mm thick, so this is a watch with real presence that suits larger wrists. If you are unsure about fit, the watch size guide will help you decide. The mineral glass resists scratches better than plastic. The quartz movement keeps accurate time without servicing. When the battery weakens, have it changed by a watchmaker, who can also check the seals. Water resistance is 3 ATM, which covers splashes. Take it off before a shower or a swim. The watch weighs 171 g.

Bracelet and clasp

The black stainless steel bracelet is 22 mm wide and 24 cm long in total. You shorten it by removing links, and it is worth keeping any you take out. A deployant clasp closes with a click and keeps the watch on your wrist when you open it.

The black steel bracelet looks as at home with a shirt at the office as with jeans at the weekend, and the blue dial adds a touch of colour without shouting.
