Description

The Fossil Carlie Mini ES4701 is a refined quartz timepiece designed for those who appreciate elegant proportions and timeless style. Housed in a compact 28mm stainless steel case with a polished rose gold-tone finish, this watch features a captivating blue mother-of-pearl dial adorned with Roman numeral hour markers at 12 and 6 o'clock, complemented by sleek stick indices. The three-hand quartz movement ensures reliable timekeeping, while the sunburst mother-of-pearl finish adds depth and luminosity to the dial, shifting subtly in changing light.

The tan leather strap, finished with contrast stitching, provides both comfort and versatility, making this watch an ideal companion for both professional and leisure settings. Water-resistant to 5 ATM (50 metres), the Carlie Mini is protected against splashes and brief immersion, though it is not suitable for swimming or water sports. The 12mm interchangeable strap system allows you to personalise your watch with ease, adapting it to suit your mood or occasion.

FAQ

Q: What size wrist will this Fossil Carlie Mini fit?

A: The tan leather strap is designed to fit a range of wrist sizes comfortably, typically from approximately 140mm to 180mm in circumference. Our team at Cassims & Co. can adjust the strap length for you to ensure a perfect fit, or you can visit our Johannesburg showrooms for a complimentary fitting.

Q: Is the Fossil Carlie Mini suitable for swimming or showering?

A: This watch is water-resistant to 5 ATM (50 metres), which means it can withstand splashes, rain, and brief immersion in water. However, it is not recommended for swimming, showering, or any water sports, as prolonged exposure to water may compromise the seal and void the warranty.

Q: Can I change the strap on this watch?

A: Yes, the Carlie Mini features a 12mm interchangeable strap system, allowing you to swap the tan leather strap for other compatible 12mm straps. This makes it easy to customise the look of your watch to suit different occasions or personal preferences.

Q: How often will the battery need replacing?

A: The quartz movement in the Fossil Carlie Mini is powered by a replaceable battery that typically lasts between 2 to 3 years, depending on usage. When the time comes for a replacement, our watch servicing team at Cassims & Co. can perform the battery change quickly and safely, ensuring your watch remains in optimal condition.

Q: What is mother-of-pearl and why does the dial change colour?

A: Mother-of-pearl is a natural iridescent material formed from the inner layer of certain mollusc shells. The blue mother-of-pearl dial on this Carlie Mini features a sunburst finish that shifts subtly in different lighting conditions, creating a dynamic and luminous effect that adds depth and visual interest to the watch.

Q: Does this watch come with the original Fossil warranty?

A: Yes, as an authorised Fossil retailer, Cassims & Co. provides this watch with a full 2-year international Fossil warranty from the date of purchase. The warranty covers manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship, and is valid worldwide when purchased from an authorised retailer.

Q: Can I purchase this watch online and have it delivered?

A: Absolutely. We offer secure nationwide delivery across South Africa, with your watch carefully packaged and insured during transit. Alternatively, you are welcome to visit our Johannesburg showrooms in Johannesburg to view and try on the Carlie Mini in person before making your purchase.

Warranty
  • This Fossil Carlie Mini is covered by a 2-year international Fossil warranty from the date of purchase, valid when purchased from an authorised retailer such as Cassims & Co.
  • The warranty covers manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship under normal use conditions.
  • The warranty does not cover normal wear and tear, including scratches, dings, or fading of the case, crystal, or strap.
  • Battery replacement, strap replacement, and routine maintenance are not covered under the warranty.
  • Accidental damage, misuse, unauthorised modifications, or repairs performed by non-authorised service centres will void the warranty.
  • Water damage resulting from improper use (such as swimming or showering with the watch) is not covered.
  • To make a warranty claim, please present your original proof of purchase from Cassims & Co. and contact our team for assistance.
  • Cassims & Co. provides ongoing after-sales support, including battery replacements, strap adjustments, and servicing referrals, to ensure your watch continues to perform beautifully for years to come.
Care guide
  • Store your Fossil Carlie Mini in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use, preferably in its original box or a soft watch pouch.
  • Avoid exposing the watch to extreme temperatures, strong magnetic fields, or harsh chemicals, as these can affect the movement and finish.
  • Clean the case and crystal regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth to remove fingerprints, dust, and residue. For the leather strap, use a slightly damp cloth and allow it to air dry naturally.
  • Do not wear the watch while swimming, showering, or engaging in water sports, as it is only water-resistant to 5 ATM and prolonged exposure may damage the seals.
  • Avoid impact or dropping the watch, as this can damage the movement, crystal, or case finish.
  • Have the battery replaced by a professional watchmaker when the movement stops. Our team at Cassims & Co. offers battery replacement services to ensure your watch is opened and resealed correctly.
  • If the leather strap becomes wet, allow it to dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid exposing it to direct heat sources such as hairdryers or radiators, as this can cause the leather to crack or warp.
  • Periodically check the strap and buckle for signs of wear. If you notice any damage or loosening, bring the watch to our boutique for inspection and adjustment.
