Burberry Unisex 42mm Chronograph Watch (BU9359)

A 42mm silver case carries a grey dial on a black textured 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 42mm this reads as a full-size case that holds its own on the wrist without being oversized. The case is stainless steel with a polished finish, which is what gives it the weight and cool touch of a proper metal case rather than a coated alternative. \n Dial and Legibility \n The dial is grey with stick markers. Three sub-dials handle the chronograph — running seconds, minutes and hours for the stopwatch function — with a date window worked in at six o’clock. 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 Quartz drives the watch, which means the only maintenance schedule to remember is an occasional battery replacement, plus resetting the date afterwards. \n Strap and Fit \n It comes on a black textured 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 dark grey dial on a plain textured black strap rather than the check pattern. \n Water resistance is rated 5 ATM (50m), which covers everyday wet-hands situations but stops short of swimming. \n Care and Maintenance \n None of the care below is demanding, but it is what separates a watch that still looks right in ten years from one that just gets old. Keep it away from perfume and solvents, off the speaker on your desk, and out of direct sun when it is not on your wrist. If it ever needs a battery, have a watchmaker do it rather than a kiosk — the same visit lets them check the case seals, which is what actually protects any stated water resistance over time. \n About the Brand \n Burberry is a British house better known for its trench coats and check pattern than for horology, and that shows in how the watches are designed: understated cases, a house check worked subtly into the dial rather than shouted from it, and construction handled by a proper Swiss watchmaking partner. The result is a watch that reads as fashion-house jewellery first and a timepiece second, without cutting corners on the build. \n Technical Specifications \n Brand Burberry Case Diameter 42 mm Case Material Stainless Steel Case Colour Silver Movement Quartz Dial Colour Grey Water Resistance 5 ATM (50m) Crystal Mineral Strap/Bracelet Leather Warranty 24-month international manufacturer warranty \n Buying With Confidence \n The watch arrives new and unworn, boxed with its manufacturer’s paperwork, backed by a 24-month international warranty on the movement that excludes the battery and normal wear items.
