Burberry Unisex Watch (BU9130)

A rose gold case carries a mother of pearl dial on a white leather band that will darken and soften slightly with wear, the way any leather strap does, from Burberry. \n Case and Wrist Presence \n The case is rose 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 mother of pearl with diamond-set stick markers. There is a date window at three o’clock, which is the one complication most people actually use day to day. The hour markers are set with stones rather than printed on, which catches light differently depending on the angle you look at it from. 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 white 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 rose gold case against a light strap, for a piece that reads dressier than an all-steel version. \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 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 Material Rose Gold Plated Case Colour Rose Gold Movement Quartz Dial Colour Mother Of Pearl 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.
