BUREI BM-13001-P05ER Day and Date Watch Review

March 22, 2016 by Matthew Catellier Leave a Comment — Updated on January 22, 2024

BUREI® Men's BM-13001-P05ER Day and Date Watch Review

Just one look at the BUREI BM-13001-P05ER should be enough to let you know that you’re dealing with something different. Sure, a lot of the design can be safely classified as ‘classic men’s casual’ but the overall package this timepiece brings to the table involves something more. Way more. If you’re looking for a watch that brings versatility and flexibility to the table, check this model out.

Casual wear watch

To say that the BM-13001-P05ER is your typical casual wear watch is to zoom past the point. Sure, it is a casual wear watch that can help you make the right impression in a wide range of social settings-from looking for a job, hanging out with co-workers at an after work hours watering hole, or impressing a shy first date-but it is much more.

You can already tell just by looking at its crocodile-pattern embossing that the Burei Day and Date is all about making an impression. You definitely will stand out-and for all the right reasons. You see, making an impression is actually quite easy with watches. You just need a wild design or a bad combination of features and you will get eyeballs. Sadly, that’s not the kind of attention you’d want.

The great thing about this BUREI watch is that you manage to get the right attention within the context this watch aims for: classy, confident, and calm. Talk about a classic combination! You get the eyeballs without looking brash, overbearing, or pretentious.

BM-13001-P05ER Movement Type

Usually, the bold combination of design features that easily sets the BUREI BM-13001-P05ER Day and Date apart are found in a more expensive package. This is due, of course, to the typical automatic movement that typically accompanies eyeball-grabbing distinctive designs. Thanks to quartz movement technology, you get to make the right impressions with this watch without you having to take out the cash lump sum portion of your life insurance. Serious talk.

Quartz technology has always been the cost equalizer of the watch world. Thanks to quartz, watch fans can enjoy a wide diversity of classy and amazing designs without having to pay through the nose. Of course, quartz movements are not created equal. Some mechanisms based on quartz technology simply fall short. Well, there’s little chance of you getting left high and dry by this watch because it uses Japanese quartz technology-world renowned for dependability and longevity. This timepiece delivers serious watch fans the best of both worlds-an amazing look and a cost-busting tried and proven quartz system. What’s not to love?

Day and Date Special Features

Not only is the Burei Day and Date geared towards ‘breaking necks’ your way, you also get quite a bit of value packed in its croc-style embossed package. You get a calendar window that tells you which day of the week it is. Pretty nifty feature not just because your mobile phone might not always be available nearby. This feature is also pretty crucial because it helps cement the overall gravity and class this watch brings to the table. Nothing like an old school reference to calendar dates makes a modern watch reference all the old school design goodness of bygone years.

While imported watches like this Day and Date are very widespread, it is too easy to lump them all together as far as quality is concerned. Indeed, due to this model’s very affordable price point, many watch fans would be very happy to take less than stellar precision as an acceptable tradeoff. Thankfully, you don’t have to resign yourself to such a Faustian deal. After all, the main (and many would say only) job of a watch is to tell accurate time. This model uses Swiss-inspired precision so you wouldn’t have to worry about constantly recalibrating your watch.

A distinctive value

If you want to stand out from the crowd with a classy looking watch that is very precise, the BUREI Men’s BM-13001-P05ER Day and Date Watch is for you. You get to kill many birds with one stone. Affordable? Check. Looks awesome? Check. Versatile? Absolutely. Precise? Of course. Whether you’re looking for a main watch or a backup watch, you might want to give this timepiece the look-over. You’d be surprised at how much value it brings to the table.
