FAQ
Q: Is this watch suitable for swimming or showering?
A: The LA670WGA-1DF has 30-metre water resistance, which protects against splashes, rain, and brief immersion. However, it is not suitable for swimming, showering, or any water sports. We recommend removing the watch before extensive water contact to preserve the seal integrity and prevent moisture ingress.
Q: How do I adjust the stainless steel bracelet?
A: The bracelet features an adjustable clasp system that can be resized by removing links. Our team at Cassim & Co. offers complimentary bracelet sizing when you purchase from us. Visit our Mall of the South boutique for professional adjustment, or contact us for guidance on DIY link removal if you're comfortable doing so.
Q: What is the battery life, and where can I get it replaced?
A: The quartz module provides approximately seven years of battery life under normal use. When replacement is needed, our watch servicing team can replace the battery with a genuine Casio cell to maintain water resistance and performance. We recommend professional replacement rather than high-street services to ensure proper resealing.
Q: Can I change the time format from 12-hour to 24-hour?
A: Yes, the LA670WGA-1DF allows you to toggle between 12-hour and 24-hour time display formats through the watch's settings. Consult the included instruction manual for the specific button sequence, or contact us for guidance on adjusting this and other digital functions.
Q: Is this watch suitable for small wrists?
A: Absolutely. With a compact 24.6mm case diameter and 30.3mm lug-to-lug measurement, the LA670WGA-1DF is specifically designed for smaller wrists and is marketed as a ladies' model. The adjustable bracelet ensures a secure and comfortable fit across a wide range of wrist sizes.
Q: Does the LED backlight illuminate the entire display?
A: Yes, pressing the designated button activates an LED backlight that illuminates the entire digital display for improved visibility in low-light or dark conditions. The backlight provides momentary illumination to read the time, alarm status, and other displayed information clearly.
Q: Is this an authentic Casio watch with a valid warranty?
A: Yes. Cassim & Co. is an authorised Casio retailer in South Africa. Every LA670WGA-1DF we sell is a genuine Casio timepiece accompanied by a 1-year international manufacturer warranty, valid from the date of purchase. This warranty covers manufacturing defects when purchased from authorised dealers like ourselves.

Care Guide
- Avoid exposing the watch to extreme temperatures, direct sunlight for prolonged periods, or magnetic fields which may affect timekeeping accuracy.
- Although water-resistant to 30 metres, remove the watch before swimming, showering, or engaging in water sports to preserve seal integrity.
- Clean the stainless steel case and bracelet regularly with a soft, slightly damp cloth to remove perspiration, dirt, and oils.
- Do not operate the pushers or adjust functions whilst the watch is wet, as moisture may enter the case.
- Avoid impact or dropping the watch, as shock can damage the quartz module or digital display.
- When not in use, store the watch in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and humidity.
- Replace the battery with a professional service when the display dims or functions become sluggish—approximately every seven years under normal use.
- Have the water resistance tested and gaskets inspected during battery replacement to maintain the 30-metre rating.
- Avoid contact with solvents, detergents, perfumes, cosmetics, and chemicals which may damage the gold-tone finish or gaskets.
- If the bracelet requires adjustment, seek professional link removal to avoid damaging the pins or links.
