Burberry Men’s Watch (BU9004)

The Burberry BU9004 is a mid-sized watch. \n Case and Wrist Presence The case is rose-gold plated, which gives it a warmer read than plain steel without the cost of solid gold. The rose-gold tone case warms up the whole watch and works equally well against a dark or a light strap colour. 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 Colour on the dial is white; the hour markers are 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 rose-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 rose-gold-tone plating is baked onto the steel rather than a separate coloured layer that can peel. \n Who This Watch Suits The rose-gold case and bracelet dress up what is otherwise the same plain white dial as the steel version. \n Care and Maintenance Keep it away from perfume, solvents and extreme heat, and have the battery changed by a watchmaker rather than a kiosk – a proper change reseats the case seal at the same time, which is what actually protects the water rating. A metal bracelet can be cleaned with a soft brush and mild soapy water to clear out the grime that collects between links, then dried thoroughly before wear. \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 rose gold plated Case colour rose gold Dial colour white Strap/bracelet ss rose 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.
