Raptor men's watch black dial 41 mm

You glance down at your wrist halfway through a meeting, and with a black dial and clean line indices the time is there before anyone notices. The Raptor is a men's watch with a 41 mm round case, a quartz movement and an all-black finish across the case, dial and bracelet. The model is called Malte.

Dial and movement

The dial is black, with thin line indices marking the hours so the reading stays crisp. Time is shown in analogue. Inside is a GM12 quartz movement, which needs no winding or setting routine. When the battery runs out, you replace it and carry on.

Bracelet and clasp

The black bracelet is made of links and is sized by removing one or more of them. Keep any links you take out in case you need them later. The deployant clasp closes with a click and holds the watch on your wrist when opened. Total bracelet length is 23.5 cm, and the width between the lugs is 20 mm, which is the figure to note if you ever look for a replacement strap. If you are unsure how to adjust the fit, our watch size guide explains the steps.

Case, glass and water resistance

The case measures 41 mm across and 10 mm thick, a size that suits most men's wrists, and the watch weighs 49 g. The mineral glass protects the dial through normal daily wear. Water resistance is 3 ATM, which covers rain and hand washing. It does not cover showers, baths or swimming, so take the watch off for those.

Everyday wear

With its dark, uniform look and modest thickness, this Raptor sits comfortably under a shirt cuff at work and works just as well with a T-shirt at the weekend. It is a simple watch to live with: set it once, wear it daily, change the battery when the time comes.
