Slazenger SL.9.2545.2.06 Dark Blue Dial Two-Tone Men's Watch

The Slazenger SL.9.2545.2.06 men's watch is a battery-powered quartz watch with a 42 mm stainless steel case, a dark blue dial and a two-tone silver and rose gold bracelet. It suits men who want one metal watch for office days and weekends, and its day, date and 24-hour sub-dials keep everyday information visible.

Hardened mineral glass covers the dial and gives the face a practical barrier against daily knocks. The 5 ATM water resistance rating, which refers to about 50 metres of static pressure, covers rain, hand-washing and brief immersion, but not swimming or diving. A solid-link bracelet with a folding clasp and safety latch keeps the Slazenger SL.9.2545.2.06 men's watch secure, and luminous hands and markers help with reading the time in low light.

Key features and benefits of the Slazenger SL.9.2545.2.06 men's watch

• 42 mm stainless steel case: The case measures 42 millimetres across and is made from corrosion-resistant stainless steel. That mid-size case suits many adult wrists and keeps the watch neat under a shirt cuff.
• Silver case finish: The case colour is silver, which gives the watch a neutral base. It coordinates with the steel links in the bracelet and works with both cool and warm clothing colours.
• Multifunction quartz movement: The battery-powered quartz movement drives day, date and 24-hour sub-dials as well as the main hands. You can check the day, date and 24-hour display without reaching for a phone.
• Dark blue sunburst dial: The dial is dark blue with a sunburst finish. The deep colour adds a visible accent while keeping the face easy to read in bright light.
• Two-tone metal bracelet: The solid-link bracelet mixes silver stainless steel links with rose gold plated links. The two-tone finish lets the watch pair with silver or gold jewellery.
• Mineral glass: Hardened mineral crystal protects the dial. It resists everyday scratches better than acrylic, which helps the face stay clear with normal use.
• 5 ATM water resistance: The watch is rated to 5 atmospheres, or about 50 metres of static pressure. It is safe for rain, splashes and brief immersion, but not for swimming or diving.
• Folding clasp with safety latch: The bracelet closes with a folding deployment clasp that has a safety latch. The clasp stays closed during movement and can be opened with one hand.
• Luminous hands and markers: The hands and hour markers have a luminescent coating. After charging in daylight, they glow in low light so you can read the time at night.
• Full function set: The watch shows hours, minutes and seconds along with day, date and a 24-hour indicator. The layout keeps daily time and calendar information on one dial.

• Daily commutes that involve rain or hand-washing
• Weekend meals or social events where the blue dial adds colour
• Travel where a quartz watch avoids winding and time-setting fuss

Using and caring for the Slazenger SL.9.2545.2.06 men's watch

Rinse the Slazenger SL.9.2545.2.06 men's watch with fresh water after contact with salt water or chlorine, then dry it with a soft cloth. Clean the bracelet now and then with mild soap solution and a soft brush to lift skin oils from between the links. Keep the crown and pushers away from water while they are open, store the watch away from strong magnets and extreme temperatures, and have the water resistance seals checked by a watchmaker every two years if the watch often gets wet.

• Wipe the case and mineral glass with a microfibre cloth to keep the silver finish clean
• Remove links to adjust the solid-link bracelet so the case sits centred on the wrist
• Use the crown positions to set the date and time, and keep the crown pressed in when not setting
• Do not operate the crown or pushers underwater
• Replace the battery every two to three years at a qualified service centre

How to choose the right men's watch

When you choose a men's watch, start with case size: the Slazenger SL.9.2545.2.06 men's watch has a 42 mm case, a mid-size that suits many average to larger wrists. Next, decide on movement: this watch uses a quartz multifunction movement, so it runs on a battery and shows day, date and 24-hour sub-dials without winding. Match water resistance to your routine: 5 ATM covers rain and splashes but not swimming. Finally, pick a bracelet finish that fits your wardrobe; the two-tone silver and rose gold stainless steel band works with both metal tones.
