Bn0032 Male Round Analogwatch

Stellar design, quality for the price. Some of the reviews here got me pretty concerned about the quality issues people have mentioned. However, after wearing mine for a few days, I have to say, so far it has been super great. Bought the watch for 80 some dollars and it has got to be the cheapest yet most beautiful watch I’ve ever purchased. The clean aesthetic is perfect for my wardrobes, casual, business, athelesure. Im very impressed by the craftsmanship, where everything aligned, sealed, adhered perfectly. Hands are straight, and very accurate down to the minute so far. The second hand ticks with pep and moves ever so steadily. The leather or synthetic leather band wears in softly after a day of use. The watch face is light to decent weight on the wrist and drapes nicely. Brushed nickel watch enclosing and accent is flawless. I shall provide update after a couple of months time. But So Far, it is a great addition to my collection of apple and mechanical watches.

Very comfortable. Nice looking. The leather strap is what is expected for the price point. I will probably switch the strap for a silicone Barton strap with the quick release. My only "complaint" is some of the markers don't line up exactly on the minute and second hand, but it is hardly noticeable unless you look closely at it ticking. Just an FYI, Steve Jobs was heavily influenced by the braUn designs and was influenced by them when he developed the first iPod and iPhone. Very cool. Highly recommended watch in the quartz movement market selections.

Braun AG was a famous German consumer products company whose products were firmly rooted in German modern industrial design that remain fresh as classics that have survived the test of time. I loved the design of Braun watches and clocks when they first came to market in the 1970's but never actually owned one in the day. With Braun out of business for many years, you have to wonder who is actually making 'modern' Braun watches? Discovery took a bit of research so please bear with me. Braun AG established in 1921, became a wholly owned subsidiary of The Gillette Company from 1984 until 2007. Procter & Gamble Co., the American multinational consumer goods company, subsequently acquired Gillette in 2005. In October of 2009, the company "Zeon Limited", a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Herald Group; a Public Corporation listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, signed an exclusive licensing agreement with Procter & Gamble Co. to develop and produce clocks and watches using the Braun brand starting in 2010. Zeon has built their business selling fashion products based on the strength of licensed brand names. Zeon manufactures watches under a number of licensed brands including Braun, Vivienne Westwood, Playboy, Ed Hardy, Beetles, Lambretta, Alexandra Burke, Paul's Boutique and Bench. Zeon owns the "Ingersoll" trademark. Original Braun watches garnered a reputation for providing high quality with Swiss Ronda movements, so the question is, has Zeon Ltd's execution been faithful to Braun's stellar reputation? I'd have to answer; yes but no. I'm assuming the watch is cased in Asia as Zeon trades in Hong Kong and they've made a conscious effort to hide the country of origin that isn't listed on the watch case, the box or any printed materials. Seems obvious that the Braun watches originate from Zeon's home market in China. The watch casing and band are quite lovely so in my opinion Zeon has done an excellent job recreating the essence of Braun's design, but watch movements are arguably the most important part of any watch and that's where Zeon has cut corners. This Braun is fitted with a Miyota 1S13 Japanese quartz movement (Zero jewels) that is a reliable pedestrian movement found in lots of fashion watches ($6-$7 movement). Miyota quartz movements are made by a division of Citizen LTD and assembled in Japan. Battery life for this movement is rated at 3 years. Zeon provides a two year warranty with the specification that the owner is responsible for shipping costs both ways and that a standard processing fee of $15 is applied to all warranty service requests. So at the end of the day, a warranty trip costs you about $25 when you add freight. Warranty coverage essentially excludes everything other than the movement that only costs Zeon a few bucks to replace so any ‘warranty service’ is essentially client funded. Based on the casing and the caliber of the movement, in my opinion this watch should retail between $65 to $85.

This is one of the best timepieces in the world. It may not be the most expensive, most complicated, et cetera, but it is the honest embodiment of a beautiful design philosophy. This watch is supremely functional and elegant. It is accurate, easy to read at a glance, and durable. It is classy in a timeless sense that doesn't go out of fashion, because it is so simple and minimal in its aesthetic. For this reason I believe it's appropriate for any dress code, from daily wear to formal attire. It may not be customary formalwear, but it is certainly elegant enough to complement a suit, while making a unique statement. This is a watch for someone who enjoys simple and deliberate beauty through function in design. It is one of the purest expressions of this ideal in any timepiece at any price.

This is my go-to work watch: dressy, but not showy with a low profile. I get frequent compliments. It’s probably not a timeless timepiece, given the price. But it looks great, tells the time, and still works a year later.

This watch looks amazing. That's it. The watch arrived with the calendar 3 days behind, there's literally no mechanism to adjust the date. The seconds hand is completely inaccurate and misses the second every second (a broken clock is right at least twice a day but this does not even try). The back is impossible to put back. Why did I open the back,you ask, I could not take it with the date being 3 days behind; so I figured that surely there's got to be a mechanism to adjust the date. And would you believe it... There's none... Pulling the crown only adjusts the minute and,subsequently, the hour hand. Adjusting the wristband for fit is not very easy. The package comes with a document you can scan to register the product and and get instructions. The model I bought(BN0032WHSLMHG) does not even appear on their website.

I love this watch. The timeless design is elegant and simple, and it feels great on my wrist. It's also super sturdy and will take a lot of punishment before something finally breaks (usually the strap is the first to go). I've been wearing this watch almost every day for about 6 years, and will soon buy my third one. I also get compliments on it all the time, which is nice. Hope they keep making it for a long time to come!

The watch itself is acceptable but the leather stripe is totally not worth for a price like that.

Defect aangekomen.

Only had the watch for a month and a few reviews indicate longer term reliability might be an issue. However my experience so far has been stellar - I love the Braun styling- so minimal yet so clear, and the little touches of colour (yellow hand and red date tag) make it much more interesting in real life than in the pictures. The strap has held up well to daily wear (I do not use it in the shower or get it wet as it is a leather strap) and timekeeping has been fine. Overall I am delighted with this - I was very specific about looking for a Bauhaus style watch which was minimal without looking cheap, functional yet stylish too and this fits the bill perfectly!

Reloj minimalista bonito e igual que en las fotos. Me ha gustado mucho. Todo correcto.

Attractive simple face & case Keeps very accurate time all of the time.

Seit ca. drei Wochen bin ich im Besitz dieser Armbanduhr. Ich trage sie zu allen Gelegenheiten, also im Büro, Privat, beim Sport usw. Meine Vorgänger Armbanduhr hatte ein schwarzes Ziffernblatt mit silbernen Zeigern. Das sah zwar nicht schlecht aus, die Uhrzeit war aber schlicht nicht vernünftig ablesbar. Deshalb war es mir wichtig jetzt eine Armbanduhr zu kaufen bei der ich mit einem kurzen Blick die Uhrzeit ablesen kann. Dieses Kriterium erfüllt die Braun perfekt. Sogar bei widrigen Lichtverhältnissen. Dazu kommt das klare Design und die Beschränkung auf die wesentliche Funktion einer Uhr, nämlich die Anzeige der Uhrzeit. Nicht mehr nicht weniger. Keine Schickimicki Funktionen die eh kein Mensch braucht und die nur ablenken. Für Puristen wie mich ist diese Armbanduhr ein Highlight in Design und Funktion. Auch die Anzeige des Tagesdatum ist schlicht, sehr gut ablesbar und trotzdem ein kleines Design Highlight. Die Verarbeitung ist hervorragend. Obwohl die Uhr auch beim Sport getragen wird und dadurch natürlich Schweiß und Staub ausgesetzt ist, sind (noch) keine Gebrauchsspuren erkennbar. Auch das hochwertige Lederarmband zeigt keine Abnutzung. Die Dornschließe ist kein billiges Stück Draht sondern aus gebürstetem ca. 4 mm breitem Edelstahl gefertigt. Mit dem Glas der Uhr bin ich am Reisverschluss meiner Sporttasche entlang gestreift. Ich hatte mich schon auf einige Kratzer gefasst gemacht, aber das hochwertige Mineralglas hat diesen kleinen Unfall ohne erkennbaren Kratzer weggesteckt. Die Ganggenauigkeit ist aus jetziger Sicht hervorragend. Ich habe die Uhr vor 3 Wochen als sie ankam genau eingestellt und sie stimmt noch jetzt auf die Sekunde. Apropos Sekunde. Ein kleines Highlight ist auch der gelbe Sekundenzeiger der das Design noch einmal aufwertet. Die Uhr sieht getragen noch viel besser aus wie auf den Bildern. Sie wurde von Amazon gewohnt blitzartig geliefert und kommt in einer stabilen und sehr formschönen Verpackung von Braun. Wer gutes Design und Schlichtheit mag, macht mit dieser Uhr ganz sicher nichts falsch. 5 Sterne ++
