ROCHET Predator

By TLex I think this first thing to mention about the Predator from ROCHET (a French fashion watch brand) is that its MSRP is just 200€, so it's not expecting to win any awards for prestige or luxury, but might make a nice beater. Its Stainless Steel case measures 48mm x 13mm with a lug to lug measurement of 50mm. The case, which is certified to 200m has actually been tested 400m.



The Predator houses a Japanese made Miyota 2405 Quartz movement with day / date function. It comes on Milanese mesh bracelet with folding clasp and divers extension and is presented in a bright yellow Pelican type box. The watch is also available on a rubber strap with a variety of dial colors.



ROCHET have a further Limited Edition DLC version of the predator, which is powered by a SEIKO YT58 AGS (Automatic Generating System) Kinetic movement with a 6 months power reserve and day / date function. MSRP is 399€. It is limited to just 300 pieces.
