Burberry Unisex 34mm Watch (BU9140)

A 34mm gold case carries a champagne dial on a red patent leather band that will darken and soften slightly with wear, the way any leather strap does, from Burberry. \n Case and Wrist Presence \n At 34mm this sits on the smaller side of the size range, wearing close to the wrist rather than sitting proud of it. The case is gold plated with a polished finish over a base metal, so the colour comes from the plating rather than a solid precious-metal case. \n Dial and Legibility \n The dial is champagne with stick markers. A date window sits at three o’clock, small enough not to unbalance the dial layout. The crystal is mineral glass — it will pick up fine scratches over the years more readily than sapphire would, though it survives everyday knocks well enough. \n Movement and Functions \n The movement is quartz, so timekeeping accuracy is not something to think about — you set the date after a battery change and otherwise leave it alone. \n Strap and Fit \n It comes on a red patent leather band that will darken and soften slightly with wear, the way any leather strap does. Like any leather strap it will darken slightly at the fold points over time — that is wear, not damage. \n Who This Watch Suits \n This suits someone who wants a gold case paired with a glossy red strap, a dressier combination than the plain leather versions. \n It is rated 5 ATM (50m), enough to shrug off rain, hand-washing and a splash at the basin, but it is not built for swimming or diving — the crown should not be worked underwater. \n Care and Maintenance \n Treat it the way you would any watch you want to keep: out of direct sun for long periods, away from solvents and perfume, and dried off if it gets wet. A battery replacement is cheap insurance against a leaking cell, and a watchmaker doing the job can check the gaskets at the same time. \n About the Brand \n The house is best known for outerwear, but its watches are produced through a proper Swiss manufacturing arrangement, which is why ‘Swiss Made’ sits on the dial. Burberry keeps the case designs simple and lets the embossed check pattern do the branding, so the watch reads as understated rather than logo-heavy. \n Technical Specifications \n Brand Burberry Case Diameter 34 mm Case Material Gold Plated Case Colour Gold Movement Quartz Dial Colour Champagne Water Resistance 5 ATM (50m) Crystal Mineral Strap/Bracelet Leather Warranty 24-month international manufacturer warranty \n Buying With Confidence \n It ships new and unworn, in its original box with the manufacturer’s paperwork, and it is covered by a 24-month international manufacturer’s warranty on the movement, excluding the battery and normal wear.
