Raptor rose gold-tone women's watch steel bracelet 36 mm

You are on the train with a coffee in one hand, and you check the time with a glance at your wrist. On the Raptor, that glance is quick: the dial is white, with slim hour markers and nothing else competing for attention. The case and bracelet share the same rose gold-tone finish, which sits comfortably against soft shades and works just as well with black.

The round case measures 36 mm across and 8.5 mm thick, a size that is noticeable without being heavy. The case is metal and the bracelet is stainless steel, made up of links in matching rose gold-tone. The bracelet is 14 mm wide, and the total length including the case is 24 cm. It closes with a deployant clasp, which keeps the watch secure when you open and close it. It goes with a shirt in the office and a jumper at the weekend alike.

Inside is a Miyota 2035 quartz movement with an analogue display, a simple and dependable setup. When the battery eventually runs down, a watchmaker can replace it in a few minutes. The mineral glass over the dial resists scratches better than plastic glass would. Water resistance is 3 ATM, which covers splashes and handwashing. Take it off before a shower or a swim.

If you like the colour, you can compare it with the other rose gold-tone watches for women in the shop. It also makes an easy gift, for someone else or for yourself.
