Raptor men's watch 46 mm red dial black leather strap

At 46 mm across and 11.5 mm thick, this Raptor is a large round watch, and it sits proudly on the wrist. It suits wider wrists best, where a case of this diameter looks balanced rather than oversized. The model is named Simon, and it is a men's watch with a quartz movement (Miyota 2115) and an analogue display.

Dial and movement

The dial is red, matching the red metal case, with silver-coloured line indexes that mark the hours without crowding the face. A date window shows the day of the month. The mineral glass protects the dial. Because it runs on quartz, the time stays steady with no winding. When the battery weakens, have it replaced by a watchmaker, who can check the seals at the same time. Water resistance is 3 ATM, which covers rain and hand washing. Showers, baths and swimming are outside what it is rated for.

Strap and fit

The strap is black leather, 22 mm wide, with a total length of 25.5 cm. It closes with a pin buckle, so you can adjust it hole by hole to your wrist. Leather softens and develops a patina with wear, and it lasts longer if kept away from water. If you like this style, you can compare it with other men's leather strap watches in the shop.

For everyday wear, the black strap keeps the bold red case and dial easy to live with, at work or at the weekend. Just allow for the size when choosing shirt cuffs, as the 11.5 mm case is better suited to looser sleeves.
