Raptor men's watch 46 mm red dial steel bracelet

It is mid-morning, your cuff slides back as you reach for a pen, and the red dial catches the light on your wrist. That is the kind of moment the Raptor suits: a quartz men's watch with a round 46 mm case, a steel bracelet and a date window, built for everyday use.

Dial, movement and case

The dial is red, with slim line markers that mark the hours without crowding it, and the date sits in its own window. The case is metal, also red, 46 mm across and 11.5 mm thick, with a mineral glass over the dial. The quartz movement is the Miyota 2115, which keeps steady time without servicing. When the battery eventually fades, have it replaced by a watchmaker, who can also check the seals. Water resistance is 3 ATM, so rain and hand washing are fine, while showers, baths and swimming are not.

Bracelet and fit

The bracelet is stainless steel in a silver colour, 22 mm wide and 25 cm long overall. It is made of links, so you shorten it by removing a few, and it is worth keeping any you take out in case you need them later. If you are unsure whether a 46 mm case suits your wrist, our watch size guide explains how to measure and how to adjust the links. A deployant clasp closes the bracelet with a single click and keeps the watch secure when you take it off.

This is a large watch, best suited to wider wrists or anyone who likes a bold presence. The steel bracelet keeps it versatile, working as well with a shirt at the office as with jeans at the weekend.
