Lee Cooper LC08252.300 Silver Metal Blue Dial Men's Watch

The Lee Cooper LC08252.300 is a men's watch with a 39.5 mm round silver metal case and a blue dial, built for everyday wear. It pairs a date movement with a matching metal band and mineral glass, so it covers the basics of timekeeping and calendar display without extra complications. The silver finish and blue face give it a clean look that suits office days, weekends and travel.

The watch uses a base-metal alloy that Lee Cooper calls Super Metal, finished with silver plating. The metal band matches the case in colour, and the blue dial carries a date window for checking the day of the month at a glance. Mineral glass protects the face from everyday scratches, while 3 ATM water resistance covers rain, hand-washing and brief splashes. The case measures 39.5 mm across without the crown, a mid-size that fits many adult wrists. A two-year manufacturer warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship.

Key features and benefits of the Lee Cooper LC08252.300

• Date movement: The movement drives a small date window on the dial. You can read the day of the month without reaching for a phone or calendar.
• 39.5 mm case diameter: The round case measures 39.5 mm across, not counting the crown. That size reads clearly on the wrist while staying compact enough for a shirt cuff.
• Round case shape: The circular profile keeps the watch classic and easy to pair with different outfits. It also gives the dial a balanced frame for the hands and date window.
• Super Metal case: Super Metal is Lee Cooper's name for a base-metal alloy used for the case. It keeps the watch light on the wrist while giving the case enough rigidity for daily knocks.
• Silver case plating: A silver-toned plating gives the case a bright, even finish. With normal care, the plating helps the watch keep its shine through regular wear.
• Metal band: The bracelet is made from silver-toned metal and matches the case. Metal bands resist sweat and odour, and the links can be adjusted for fit by a watch shop.
• Silver band colour: The band and case share a silver colour for a coordinated look. That makes the watch easy to wear with navy, grey, white and other common clothing colours.
• Blue dial: The blue face contrasts with the silver hands and markers. It adds a little colour without making the watch loud, and the date window stays easy to spot.
• Mineral glass: Mineral glass is a hardened crystal that protects the dial. It stands up to keys, coins and desk edges better than standard acrylic in everyday use.
• 3 ATM water resistance: The 3 ATM rating means the watch is tested for pressure equivalent to 30 metres of static water. In daily life it handles rain, hand-washing and accidental splashes, but it is not made for swimming, showering or diving.
• Two-year warranty: Lee Cooper covers defects in materials and workmanship for two years from purchase. Keep the proof of purchase in case you need to make a claim.

Who the Lee Cooper LC08252.300 men's watch is for

The Lee Cooper LC08252.300 suits men who want a straightforward analogue watch for work, weekends and travel. Its silver metal build and blue dial move easily from a business-casual office to a dinner out, and the 39.5 mm case sits flat enough to wear under a cuff. It is a good choice for anyone who prefers a date window and classic hands over chronograph sub-dials or a smartwatch that needs charging.

• Office days when a clean metal watch completes a shirt-and-trousers look.
• Weekend errands or travel when you need a watch that handles rain and knocks without fuss.
• Gifting for a father, partner or graduate who prefers classic analogue style.
• Daily wear for someone who wants one watch that matches jeans and a blazer.
• A first metal watch for a buyer moving up from a plastic or fabric strap.

Less suitable if: you plan to swim, snorkel or shower with the watch on, because 3 ATM does not protect against sustained water pressure or hot water exposure.

Using and caring for the Lee Cooper LC08252.300

Set the time with the crown, then push the crown back in before wearing the watch. Keep the case and bracelet away from perfumes, solvents and extreme heat, which can dull the silver plating or stress the seals. After the watch meets rain or splashes, wipe it with a soft cloth. Have the battery changed at a watch service point, and ask for the water resistance to be checked at the same time.

• Clean the metal bracelet with a soft toothbrush and mild soapy water, then rinse and dry.
• Store the watch in a dry pouch or box when it is not being worn.
• Do not operate the crown while the watch is wet.
• Rinse and dry the watch after contact with salt water or sweat.
• Have the seals checked by a watchmaker if you often wear the watch in damp conditions.

How to choose the right men's watch

When picking a daily analogue watch, look at case size, case material, water resistance and band type. The Lee Cooper LC08252.300 has a 39.5 mm case that suits many wrists without overhang, a silver-plated Super Metal case that handles everyday knocks, and a metal bracelet that can be adjusted by removing links. Its 3 ATM rating is for splashes and rain, not swimming. If you need a watch for pool or sea use, look for a higher water resistance rating instead.

Frequently asked questions

What is the case made of?

The case is made from a base-metal alloy Lee Cooper calls Super Metal, with silver plating. This keeps the watch light while giving it a bright, even finish.

How large is the watch on the wrist?

The case measures 39.5 mm in diameter, a mid-size that suits many adult men. It sits low enough to slide under a standard shirt cuff.

Can I swim with this watch?

No. The 3 ATM rating covers splashes, rain and brief immersion only. Swimming, showering or diving can exceed the seal limits and let water in.

What type of glass protects the dial?

The dial is protected by mineral glass, a hardened crystal that resists everyday scratches. It is not as impact-resistant as sapphire.

Is the bracelet adjustable?

Yes. The metal bracelet has removable links, so a jeweller or watch shop can adjust it to your wrist. Ask for a careful fit so the watch sits comfortably.

Does the watch show the date?

Yes. A date window on the blue dial shows the day of the month. The date movement advances it automatically.

What warranty comes with the watch?

Lee Cooper provides a two-year manufacturer warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship. Keep your proof of purchase for any claim.

How does this model differ from a chronograph?

The Lee Cooper LC08252.300 has a simple three-hand layout with a date window. A chronograph adds stopwatch sub-dials and pushers, which usually makes the case thicker and the dial busier.
