The Burberry The City Sport Chronograph BU9807 is a stylish and functional timepiece designed for individuals who appreciate both precision and a distinctive aesthetic. This guide will help you understand its features, optimize its performance, and maintain its elegant design. Its key benefit lies in combining a sophisticated look with practical chronograph functions, though its water resistance is suitable for splashes and brief immersion, not extensive swimming or diving.

50 meters of water resistance means the watch can withstand splashes, rain, and brief immersion in water, such as washing hands. It is NOT suitable for swimming, snorkeling, diving, or showering, as these activities can exceed the pressure rating or expose the watch to prolonged water contact.
Press the top pusher to start the chronograph and begin timing. Press the top pusher again to stop it. To reset the chronograph hands to zero, press the bottom pusher. The subdials will show elapsed seconds, minutes, and hours.
The battery life for a quartz movement typically ranges from 2 to 4 years, depending on usage. When the watch stops, it's a sign the battery needs replacement. Always have it done by a professional to maintain water resistance.
Sapphire crystal is highly scratch-resistant, much more so than mineral glass. While extremely durable, it is not entirely scratch-proof and can still be scratched or chipped under extreme impact or contact with materials harder than sapphire, such as diamonds.
Yes, the watch has a 20 mm lug width, allowing you to replace the original navy check-embossed rubber strap with any compatible 20 mm strap of your choice, though this may alter the original aesthetic.
Wipe the case and crystal with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth. For the rubber strap, use a slightly damp cloth with mild soap, then rinse well and dry thoroughly. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents.
The date display window is conveniently located at the 4 o'clock position on the watch dial, providing easy visibility.
While often associated with diving, the uni-directional rotating bezel can be used for any short-duration timing task, like tracking how long ago you parked your car, reminding yourself when to switch tasks, or simply measuring elapsed minutes in any context.
Check if the crown is pushed in fully. If it is, the battery may need replacement. Contact a qualified watch technician for battery replacement.
First, ensure the time is set correctly for AM/PM (the date changes around midnight, not noon). Avoid adjusting the date between 9 PM and 3 AM. If the issue persists, a service may be needed.
Some quartz chronographs have a reset procedure. For most, pull the crown out to the second position (time setting), then repeatedly press the top pusher to advance the 12-hour subdial hand. Use the bottom pusher to adjust the minute subdial hand. Pressing both simultaneously or specific sequences can align the second hand. Consult a detailed manual or technician if unsure.
This indicates moisture ingress. Stop using the watch immediately to prevent damage to the movement. Take it to a watchmaker for inspection, drying, and resealing.
Ensure the strap is not too tight. Clean the strap regularly with mild soap and water to remove dirt or sweat that can cause irritation. If irritation persists, consider a different strap material if available.
Setting Up Your Watch:
Compatibility: This watch is a standalone accessory. Its 20 mm band width allows for potential strap changes with compatible 20mm straps, though the unique check-embossed rubber strap is a signature feature.
