Burberry Men’s Watch (BU9003)

Burberry put a mid-sized case on the BU9003. \n Case and Wrist Presence The case is gold plated over a base metal, which gives the warmth of gold without the cost or weight of a solid case. The gold-tone finish is the dressier option, built to read as jewellery as much as a timepiece. A mineral crystal covers the dial – harder than acrylic and less prone to shattering than sapphire, a sensible trade-off for daily wear. \n Dial and Legibility The dial is white, laid out with applied baton markers. They catch the light at an angle and stay easy to read without a lot of contrast against the dial. \n Functions There is a small date aperture set into the dial. \n Water Resistance The 5 ATM rating covers rain, hand-washing and incidental splashes; it is not rated for swimming or diving. \n Strap, Clasp and Fit It is fitted with a gold-tone steel bracelet, matching the case rather than left in natural steel colour. As with any metal bracelet, a jeweller can remove or add links to get an exact fit, and the gold-tone plating is baked onto the steel rather than a separate coloured layer that can peel. \n Who This Watch Suits The gold-tone case and bracelet dress up what is otherwise the same plain white dial as the steel version. \n Care and Maintenance Wipe the case down after a sweaty day and keep it off the nightstand speaker or any other source of a stray magnet; a battery service done by a watchmaker also renews the case seal, not just the cell. Have the bracelet’s links checked periodically for wear at the pins, and keep it away from sharp knocks that can mark the polished surfaces. \n About the Brand Burberry’s watches carry the same understated house codes as the rest of the label – plain dials and cases, with no unnecessary detail. The house is better known for outerwear than watches, and the timepieces are built to the same conservative brief – correct rather than showy. \n Technical Specifications Case material gold plated Case colour gold Dial colour white Strap/bracelet ss gold Water resistance 5 ATM Gender Men’s Warranty 24-month international manufacturer warranty \n Buying With Confidence This watch carries a 24-month international manufacturer’s warranty covering the movement, excluding the battery and normal wear.
