Description
The Fossil Carlie Mini ES4432 is a refined expression of understated elegance, designed for those who appreciate classic aesthetics with contemporary wearability. At Cassim & Co., we are proud to present this authorised Fossil timepiece, which combines the brand's signature vintage-inspired design language with the precision of quartz movement technology. Measuring 28mm in case diameter, this petite three-hand watch is perfectly proportioned for slender wrists, offering timeless versatility that transitions seamlessly from boardroom to evening wear.
The heart of the Carlie Mini is its luminous mother-of-pearl dial, a naturally iridescent surface that shifts subtly in changing light. Roman numeral hour markers at 12, 3, 6, and 9 o'clock positions lend the dial classical gravitas, while slender silver-toned indices mark the remaining hours. The dial's surface is protected by mineral crystal glass, offering reliable scratch resistance for everyday wear. This model features a three-hand layout — hours, minutes, and seconds — powered by a dependable quartz movement that requires only periodic battery replacement to maintain accurate timekeeping.
The stainless steel mesh bracelet is a defining feature of the ES4432, offering both visual texture and exceptional comfort. The fine Milanese-style weave conforms naturally to the wrist, secured by a safety mesh buckle that allows for precise micro-adjustments. The all-steel construction, from case to crown to bracelet, ensures durability and hypoallergenic properties, while the polished finish catches light beautifully without overwhelming the watch's delicate proportions. For those seeking a cohesive wardrobe staple, this watch pairs effortlessly with both silver jewellery and minimalist styling.
Whether you're exploring our full range of FOSSIL watches or discovering the Carlie collection for the first time, this model represents exceptional value in the accessible luxury category. Visit us at our Mall of the South boutique in Johannesburg to experience the Carlie Mini on your wrist, where our expert team can assist with sizing and bracelet adjustment. Our watch servicing and repairs team is always available for future battery replacements, bracelet adjustments, and routine maintenance to keep your timepiece performing flawlessly for years to come.
This watch is supplied with full Fossil packaging and carries a 2-year international manufacturer's warranty when purchased from authorised retailers. Nationwide delivery is available across South Africa, ensuring that wherever you are, this elegant timepiece can reach you securely and swiftly.

- What is Covered: The warranty covers manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship, including movement malfunctions and factory defects in the case, dial, hands, or bracelet that arise under normal use conditions.

- Warranty Validation: To claim warranty service, you must present your original proof of purchase from Cassims & Co. or another authorised Fossil retailer. Watches purchased from unauthorised sellers or grey market sources are not covered.
- Service Procedure: Should you require warranty service, bring your watch and proof of purchase to Cassims & Co. at our Johannesburg showrooms. We will assess the issue and liaise directly with Fossil to facilitate repair or replacement as per warranty terms.

Care guide
- Regular Cleaning: Wipe the stainless steel case and mesh bracelet with a soft, lint-free cloth after wearing to remove perspiration, oils, and daily residue. For deeper cleaning, use a slightly damp cloth with mild soap, then dry thoroughly.
- Avoid Water Exposure: Unless confirmed water resistance specifications are available, avoid exposing this watch to water. Remove before washing hands, showering, swimming, or engaging in water sports.
- Protect the Crystal: Mineral glass is scratch-resistant but not scratch-proof. Avoid impact with hard surfaces, and remove your watch when engaging in activities that may cause knocks or abrasions.
- Battery Replacement: When the watch stops or the seconds hand begins to jump erratically, it is time for a battery change. Visit Cassims & Co. for professional battery replacement using the correct SR621SW silver oxide battery to ensure continued accuracy.
- Bracelet Maintenance: The mesh bracelet may collect dust and particles between the woven links. Gently clean with a soft brush if necessary, and ensure the safety clasp is functioning correctly. We offer professional ultrasonic cleaning at our boutique.
- Storage: When not wearing your Fossil Carlie Mini, store it in its original box or a soft watch pouch away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and magnetic fields which can affect quartz movement accuracy.
- Service Intervals: Even quartz watches benefit from periodic professional inspection. We recommend having your watch checked every 2-3 years to ensure seals, movement, and bracelet integrity are maintained.
- Avoid Chemicals: Keep your watch away from perfumes, cosmetics, cleaning agents, and solvents, which can damage seals, discolour metal finishes, or affect the mother-of-pearl dial surface.
