Slazenger SL.9.2477.1.01 Men's 42mm Stainless Steel Watch

The Slazenger SL.9.2477.1.01 is a men's stainless steel watch with a 42mm case and a silver bracelet. It suits men who want one understated timepiece for work, weekends and light swimming, and its mineral glass and 5 ATM water resistance cover everyday knocks and splashes.

The case measures 42mm across and is made from stainless steel, a metal that resists corrosion and everyday scratches. A matching silver stainless steel bracelet gives the watch a clean, continuous look and adjusts with standard removable links. Mineral glass, a hardened glass that resists scratches better than acrylic, protects the dial. The quartz date movement runs on a battery and keeps time without winding, and the date window advances automatically. With 5 ATM water resistance, the Slazenger SL.9.2477.1.01 men's watch handles rain, hand-washing and surface swimming, though not diving.

Key features and benefits of the Slazenger SL.9.2477.1.01

• 42mm stainless steel case: The case is 42mm across and made from stainless steel. That width suits a range of wrist sizes, and the metal stands up to daily knocks and skin acids.
• Silver stainless steel bracelet: The bracelet is stainless steel in a silver tone. It gives a secure fit, can be adjusted with standard links, and keeps its colour because there is no plating to wear through.
• Mineral glass: The dial window is mineral glass, a hardened glass. It resists scratches better than acrylic, so the face stays readable through desk work and outdoor use.
• Quartz date movement: A battery-powered quartz movement drives the hands and the date window. It runs without winding and keeps steady time until the battery needs changing.
• Date display: A window on the dial shows the date. It gives you the day of the month at a glance, which is handy for daily planning and travel.
• 5 ATM water resistance: The watch is rated to 5 ATM, or 50 metres of pressure. It is fine for rain, hand-washing and surface swimming, but not for diving or high-pressure water sports.
• Men's classic sizing: The 42mm case and standard lug width follow traditional men's proportions. The watch looks balanced on medium to large wrists without being oversized.
• Slazenger brand heritage: Slazenger has made sports and lifestyle accessories for more than a century. The name points to reliable, functional design rather than fast fashion.
• Model code SL.9.2477.1.01: The reference identifies this exact case, bracelet, dial and movement combination. Quote it when you order spare links or a replacement battery service.

Who the watch is for

The Slazenger SL.9.2477.1.01 is aimed at men who want a single metal watch for office days, travel and light sport. Its stainless steel build and 5 ATM rating mean you can move from desk to poolside without changing watches. The silver tone keeps it smart enough for work while the date display and quartz movement make it practical for everyday planning.

• Office workers who like the durability of a metal bracelet
• People who commute by bike or on foot and want a watch that shrugs off rain
• Swimmers who stay near the surface and want to keep a watch on
• Buyers choosing a recognisable brand with a classic silver finish
• Anyone who wants one watch to cover smart and casual days

Less suitable if: you need a dive-rated watch for scuba or snorkelling, prefer a lightweight titanium or resin case, or want advanced functions such as a chronograph, GMT or smartwatch notifications.

Using and caring for the Slazenger SL.9.2477.1.01

Stainless steel and mineral glass need little upkeep, but small habits protect the finish and the water seal. Rinse the bracelet with fresh water after salt water or a chlorinated pool. Wipe the case and glass with a soft cloth to lift oils before they harden. Have a watchmaker change the battery and check the 5 ATM seal afterwards. Keep the crown pushed in and store the watch away from strong magnets, which can affect quartz timekeeping.

• Rinse with fresh water after sea or pool swimming
• Wipe the case and bracelet with a microfibre cloth each week
• Book a battery change and seal check every two to three years
• Keep the crown fully pushed in, especially near water
• Store away from speakers, magnetic clasps and other electronics

How to choose the right watch

For a daily metal watch, the main factors are case size, case and bracelet material, water rating and movement. The Slazenger SL.9.2477.1.01 uses a 42mm stainless steel case, a matching silver stainless steel bracelet, a 5 ATM rating and a quartz date movement. That combination suits a medium to large wrist and a routine that includes office work, rain and surface swimming. If you need a lighter feel, deeper water protection or mechanical movement, look for those features specifically and check the stated values before you buy.

Frequently asked questions

What is the Slazenger SL.9.2477.1.01 made of?

The case and bracelet are stainless steel, and the dial is protected by mineral glass. The silver tone comes from the steel rather than a plated finish.

How does a 42mm case fit?

A 42mm case is a classic men's size that suits medium to large wrists. The watch is listed for wrists of roughly 16cm to 20cm circumference, so check your wrist if you are near either end.

Can I swim with this watch?

Yes, the 5 ATM rating covers surface swimming, showering and rain. It is not intended for scuba diving, snorkelling at depth or high-pressure water sports.

Does the watch need winding?

No. The quartz movement runs on a battery, and the date window changes automatically. A watchmaker can replace the battery when needed.

Can the bracelet be adjusted?

Yes. The stainless steel bracelet has removable links, so a jeweller or watch shop can shorten or lengthen it with standard tools.

What does the model code SL.9.2477.1.01 identify?

It is the reference for this exact case, bracelet, dial and movement combination. Use it when you order spare links, a crown or battery service parts.

How is mineral glass different from sapphire?

Mineral glass is a hardened glass that resists scratches better than acrylic but less than sapphire. It is common on mid-range watches and can be replaced if it becomes damaged.

How does a metal bracelet compare with leather?

A stainless steel bracelet handles water and sweat without the degrading that leather can suffer. It also keeps a consistent fit, while leather needs more careful care and periodic replacement.
