New, from Braun’s official US distributor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Design Story\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBraun’s classic watches go back to the work of Dietrich Lubs and Dieter Rams, whose watches and clocks of the 1970s and ’80s reduced telling time to its essentials. The BN0042 keeps that grammar: round case, legible numerals, a single dash of yellow on the second hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy You’ll Love It\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is a watch you stop noticing until someone asks about it: easy to read at a glance, light on the wrist and quietly recognisable to anyone who knows design. Braun is where so much of modern product design started: Dieter Rams and Dietrich Lubs drew watches and clocks for the company that still look current half a century later.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMade for Real Life\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGive it a wipe with a soft cloth now and then, keep the leather dry. When the battery runs low, any good watch shop can swap it. At 50 m it shrugs off rain and splashes. It isn’t built for diving, so we’d take it off to swim.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"lm-table\" style=\"width:100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\" style=\"width:36%;min-width:8.5em;overflow-wrap:normal;word-break:normal;hyphens:none;vertical-align:top\"\u003eModel\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBN0042 Classic Watch\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\" style=\"width:36%;min-width:8.5em;overflow-wrap:normal;word-break:normal;hyphens:none;vertical-align:top\"\u003eMaker\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBraun\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\" style=\"width:36%;min-width:8.5em;overflow-wrap:normal;word-break:normal;hyphens:none;vertical-align:top\"\u003eWhat it is\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMen’s analog watch\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\" style=\"width:36%;min-width:8.5em;overflow-wrap:normal;word-break:normal;hyphens:none;vertical-align:top\"\u003eLook\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGrey\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\" style=\"width:36%;min-width:8.5em;overflow-wrap:normal;word-break:normal;hyphens:none;vertical-align:top\"\u003eCase\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e37 mm wide, 10 mm deep\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\" style=\"width:36%;min-width:8.5em;overflow-wrap:normal;word-break:normal;hyphens:none;vertical-align:top\"\u003eCase made of\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePolished stainless steel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\" style=\"width:36%;min-width:8.5em;overflow-wrap:normal;word-break:normal;hyphens:none;vertical-align:top\"\u003eFace\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGrey, three hands and date window\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\" style=\"width:36%;min-width:8.5em;overflow-wrap:normal;word-break:normal;hyphens:none;vertical-align:top\"\u003eBand\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGrey leather\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\" style=\"width:36%;min-width:8.5em;overflow-wrap:normal;word-break:normal;hyphens:none;vertical-align:top\"\u003eMechanism\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eQuartz, three hands with date\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\" style=\"width:36%;min-width:8.5em;overflow-wrap:normal;word-break:normal;hyphens:none;vertical-align:top\"\u003eWater rating\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e50 m\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\" style=\"width:36%;min-width:8.5em;overflow-wrap:normal;word-break:normal;hyphens:none;vertical-align:top\"\u003eShows\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHours, minutes, seconds, date\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\" style=\"width:36%;min-width:8.5em;overflow-wrap:normal;word-break:normal;hyphens:none;vertical-align:top\"\u003eGlass\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMineral glass (scratch resistant)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\" style=\"width:36%;min-width:8.5em;overflow-wrap:normal;word-break:normal;hyphens:none;vertical-align:top\"\u003eBraun item no.\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBN-0042GYGYG\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\" style=\"width:36%;min-width:8.5em;overflow-wrap:normal;word-break:normal;hyphens:none;vertical-align:top\"\u003ePrice\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e$210\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere It Shines\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWear it with a crisp shirt on Monday, a sweater on Saturday and everything in between.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions We Hear Most\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat makes the BN0042 Classic Watch feel so Braun?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThree things: clean Braun dial with the signature yellow second hand; quartz movement: accurate, no winding; matt, minimal case in the Lubs\/Rams tradition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat are the BN0042 Classic Watch’s measurements?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe case measures 37 mm wide, 10 mm deep.
