Burberry Aviator vintage-style quartz watch

Burberry, the UK-based international fashion brand that already has an Aviator line of sun-glasses in its portfolio, has just introduced a quartz watch with the same name.

Details are scarce, to say the least, but it is known that the new Burberry Aviator is powered by a Swiss quartz movement and sports a round stainless steel black PVD-coated case.

The new watch is probably meant to complement Burberry’s other aviator-style pieces of wardrobe: all kinds of sunglasses, jackets, trousers and even hats.

Featuring classic B-Uhr design of the dial and white luminous hands, as well as sporting a nicely stylized setting crown, the 40 mm watch comes fitted with a trendy worn-style leather strap that significantly detracts from their authenticity (well, they are light-years from being authentic anyway) but makes them a highly desirable, yet affordable fashion piece for young folks.

Well, for the price of just below $500, they could have equipped this model with a sapphire glass.
