Raptor women's watch gold-tone stretch Frida Kahlo Edition

The first thing to know about this Raptor is how it goes on: the stainless steel bracelet is a stretch design, so there is no clasp to fiddle with. You simply slide it over your hand and it settles on your wrist. The case is gold-tone metal and measures 36 mm across and 8 mm thick, a round shape that sits neatly without taking over. This is the Frida Kahlo Edition, and the colour is where it earns the name.

The multicolour dial is clear and easy to read, with fine baton markers instead of numerals, so all the colour does the talking and the layout stays calm. The multicolour bracelet echoes the dial, while the gold-tone case frames it all with a warm glow. It pairs very happily with gold-tone jewellery if you like a wrist that catches the light, and it works as well with a work outfit as with weekend jeans or an evening dress.

On the practical side, this women's watch has a quartz movement with an analogue display, which keeps things simple: you just replace the battery when the time comes. The water resistance is splash-proof only, so rain or hand-washing is fine, but keep it away from the shower and from swimming.
