Lee Cooper LC08256.350 Supermetal Men's Watch, Silver Black 43mm

The Lee Cooper LC08256.350 men's watch is a multifunction timepiece for men, built with a 43mm supermetal case, silver plating and a matching silver metal band. Its black dial and day, date and 24-hour sub-dials make it a practical choice for work, travel and smart-casual wear.

The Lee Cooper LC08256.350 men's watch pairs a mineral glass crystal with a black dial that keeps the silver-tone hands and markers easy to read. A multifunction quartz movement drives the centre hands plus the day window, date window and 24-hour indicator. The 5 ATM water-resistance rating covers rain, hand-washing and brief surface swimming, while the supermetal case and bracelet are made from an alloy the supplier describes as harder than standard stainless steel. A deployment clasp with a safety catch keeps the bracelet secure.

Key features and benefits of the Lee Cooper LC08256.350 men's watch

• Supermetal case with silver plating: The case uses a proprietary alloy called supermetal, which the supplier says is harder than standard stainless steel. This helps the bright silver finish keep its shine through daily contact.
• 43mm case diameter: The case measures 43 millimetres across, excluding the crown. That size gives the watch presence on the wrist while staying comfortable on a wide range of forearm widths.
• Multifunction quartz movement: The movement runs the centre hours, minutes and seconds and also drives the day, date and 24-hour sub-dials. You can read calendar information at a glance without reaching for a phone.
• Black dial with recessed sub-dials: The matte black background contrasts with the silver-tone hands and markers. The three sub-dials sit slightly recessed, which adds depth and helps legibility in bright light.
• Silver metal bracelet: The integrated bracelet uses the same supermetal alloy and silver plating as the case. Its links are solid rather than folded, so the band feels substantial and resists stretching over time.
• Mineral glass crystal: Hardened mineral glass covers the dial and handles everyday knocks better than acrylic. It helps protect the face from scratches caused by keys, coins or desk edges.
• 5 ATM water resistance: The watch is rated to 5 ATM, which the supplier equates to 50 metres of static pressure. It is fine for hand-washing, rain and surface swimming, but it is not built for diving or high-pressure water jets.
• Deployment clasp with safety catch: The hidden clasp opens with a push-button release and locks closed again. A safety catch helps stop the bracelet opening if the button is bumped.
• Day, date and 24-hour complications: The multifunction module adds a day window at 3 o'clock, a date window at 4 o'clock and a 24-hour indicator at 6 o'clock. All three are set through the crown in two positions.
• Two-year international warranty: The manufacturer covers the movement and case against defects for two years from purchase. Service centres in major cities can handle claims without shipping the watch abroad.

Who the Lee Cooper LC08256.350 men's watch is for

This watch suits men who want one dependable timepiece for office days, client meetings, travel and casual weekends. The silver-tone metal and black dial work with navy, grey or charcoal suits, and the 5 ATM rating plus the supermetal case mean you do not need to take it off for hand-washing, a sudden shower or a quick dip at the surface.

• Professionals who want a single watch that moves from the boardroom to after-hours wear without a strap change.
• Frequent flyers who use the 24-hour sub-dial to keep an eye on a second time zone.
• Anyone who prefers the weight and feel of a solid metal bracelet to leather or fabric straps.
• Buyers who want a recognised brand and a two-year warranty that can be handled through local service centres.
• Gift shoppers looking for a boxed, ready-to-wear timepiece in a classic silver and black colour combination.

Less suitable if: you need a watch for scuba diving, sailing or water sports that go beyond 5 ATM pressure, or you prefer a lighter titanium or resin case for all-day comfort.

Using and caring for the Lee Cooper LC08256.350 men's watch

Clean the supermetal case and bracelet with a soft damp cloth and mild soap, then rinse and dry thoroughly so water marks do not settle on the silver plating. Keep the watch away from solvents, perfumes and harsh chemicals that could wear down the plating. The mineral glass resists scratches but can chip if it hits a hard corner, so store the watch in its box or a padded pouch when it is not being worn. After salt-water exposure, rinse the case and bracelet with fresh water. Have the battery changed by a qualified watchmaker who can reseal the case and test the water resistance.

• Wipe the case and bracelet with a microfibre cloth each week to help maintain the silver shine.
• Pull the crown to the first position to set the day and date, and to the second position to set the time and 24-hour hand.
• Do not operate the crown or pushers while the watch is wet, so the 5 ATM seal stays intact.
• Arrange a pressure test every two years if you regularly swim with the watch.
• Store the watch away from strong magnetic fields such as speakers and MRI machines to help the quartz movement stay accurate.

How to choose the right men's watch

When you choose a daily metal watch, the main factors are case size, case material, water resistance and movement type. The Lee Cooper LC08256.350 has a 43mm case that fits most wrists without overhang, a supermetal alloy the supplier describes as harder than standard stainless steel, 5 ATM water resistance for everyday wet situations, and a multifunction quartz movement with day, date and 24-hour readouts. If you need a lighter case, a higher water rating or an automatic movement, this model is not the closest match.

Frequently asked questions

What is the Lee Cooper LC08256.350 case made of?

The case is made from a proprietary supermetal alloy with silver plating. The supplier says supermetal is harder and more scratch-resistant than standard stainless steel.

How large is the Lee Cooper LC08256.350 on the wrist?

The case measures 43 millimetres in diameter and has a flat case back. It suits medium to large wrists and wears smaller than many 44mm models because of the short lugs.

Can I swim with the Lee Cooper LC08256.350 men's watch?

Yes, the 5 ATM rating allows surface swimming, showering and rain exposure. It is not rated for diving, snorkelling or high-velocity water sports.

What functions does the multifunction movement provide?

The movement shows hours, minutes and seconds plus the day of the week, the date and a 24-hour indicator. All are set through the crown in two positions.

Is the Lee Cooper LC08256.350 bracelet adjustable at home?

The solid links use screw pins that need a link-removal tool or a jeweller's bench. Professional adjustment is recommended to avoid damaging the plating.

Does the Lee Cooper LC08256.350 come with a warranty?

Lee Cooper provides a two-year international warranty covering movement and case defects. Claims are handled through authorised service centres.

What glass protects the dial?

The dial is covered by hardened mineral crystal, which resists everyday scratches better than acrylic. It is not as shatter-proof as sapphire.

How does supermetal differ from regular stainless steel?

Supermetal is a trademarked alloy formulated for higher surface hardness, so it is designed to retain its polish longer under daily wear than standard 316L stainless steel.
