Red Line is a fairly new brand and part of Swiss Watch International. The Swiss Watch International group consists of brands such as Swiss Legend, A_Line, Lucien Piccard etc. Each brand has some what of a specefic type of theme that it consits of, and is designed based around that. Red Line is based around the theme of racing, or a fast pace of life, giving us a wide variety of watches with very sporty designs and high water resistant to match someone with a very active life. Does that mean its not for everyone? Obviously not, as a watch collector myself I have fallen in love with this company over the years and now I own several Red Line and Swiss Legend time pieces. The true beauty about this time piece is that the design is very conservative, but the beautiful finish on the body and the color combination gives it an elegant but also a sporty look, enabling it to be a watch for any occasion. Now, I will be reviewing this watch in categories so it will be easier for you to decide if this is the watch for you.

Body - With the two color combination and the red/white accents, the body gives off an impression that it has a lot going on. The body is beautifully executed. Crafted from ion plated stainless steel, it has a brushed finish and coated with a rich gold tone that compliments the black bezel with white accents. The dial is black with gold toned indices and hour markers that are luminous, providing you the ability to check your time even if you are stuck in a dark place. The date is presented at the 3 o clock hour marker. This watch is 100M water resistant, which is 330FT.  The case diameter is 45MM and the case thickness is 14MM. If you are not so sure about the measurements in millimeters, the case diameter is a bit above the average size and is considered to be a little too big for some. However, the body's thickness is very slim and it has a very sleek look. The back of the body is transparent, giving the owner of the watch the ability to look at the movement of the watch while it is working and also to appreciate the craftmanship that went behind creating the movement. One important thing about Red Line that is included in every time piece they create is that the crown of the watch will be made from red silicone, giving it the signature look.

Movement - Unlike Swiss Legend watches which only uses Swiss made movements, Red Line uses movements from all over. The movement that is in this watch is a Japanese Automatic with 21 Jewels. To be more specefic, the movement is a Miyota 8215, and it is a very popular movement used in eco class automatic watches ranging from lower 200 to high 400 dollars. It is very accurate and provides great service. So far I have owned this watch for a short period of time and the movement has given me no problems.

Strap - The strap of this watch is a true beauty. The color of the strap is black and It is crafted from genuine leather with alligator skin patterns, giving it a very unique and elegant look. The width of the strap is 19mm and the lenght is about 8.5 inches, so it's about the average size or men's standard. Unlike other leather straps, this strap is curved which gives the person a comfort fit and doesn't require to be broken in to get a perfect fit.

Conclusion - After going through everything, we can come to the conclusion that this watch offers a lot. It can cause some concerns and you might have doubts about its reliability if you have no experience with this company. Well, I own quiet a few time pieces from Swiss Watch International and I must say that all their watches are made with great quality and has provided me with great service over the years. This watch comes with a 5 year limited warranty which basically means that if anything goes wrong with the movement of the watch, they will cover and replace the movement free of charge. Even though it is larger than most traditional watches, it keeps great time and is designed to be a bold statement on the wrist. If your looking for an everyday watch or even a dress watch with a little sporty edge, this is an amazing choice. Hopefully I helped, let me know if you have any more questions or comments!
