Looking for a present for a man who wears a watch every day and has no patience for fuss? The Raptor men's watch is a sturdy, no-nonsense pick, and it comes with a VD53 quartz movement that needs very little from its owner.
The quartz movement (VD53) is accurate, simple and needs no winding or setting routine. The only upkeep is a fresh battery from time to time. The display is analogue, so it reads at a glance without any menus or buttons to learn.
The rectangular case gives the Raptor its character and sets it apart from the usual round shapes. It is made of metal, and the mineral glass over the dial stands up to scratches better than plastic would. Baton hour markers organise the dial without crowding it, which keeps the time easy to read.
Water resistance is rated at 3 ATM. That covers rain and hand washing. Showers, baths and swimming are not on the list, so take it off before any of those.
The bracelet is made of links, so it can be shortened by removing a few. If you are unsure how many to take out, our watch size guide walks you through it. Keep the spare links you remove, as they may come in handy later. A deployant clasp closes the bracelet with no fuss and keeps the watch securely on the wrist when you open it.
It works from Monday meetings to Saturday errands, so whoever receives it can wear it every day without thinking twice.
