The Fossil Heidi ES5500 brings refined elegance to everyday wear, pairing a compact 26mm round case with a lustrous mother-of-pearl dial adorned with crystal hour markers. Crafted in two-tone stainless steel — a marriage of warm gold-tone and polished silver — this three-hand quartz watch strikes the perfect balance between delicate styling and enduring quality. The petite case diameter makes it ideal for those who favour understated wristwear, while the shimmering dial ensures it catches the light at every turn.
Powered by a reliable quartz movement, the ES5500 delivers accurate timekeeping without the need for daily winding, and the mineral crystal protects the dial from daily scratches. Water-resistant to 3 ATM (30 metres), this timepiece can withstand splashes and brief immersion, though it is not intended for swimming or water sports. The integrated two-tone bracelet features alternating gold-tone and silver links, secured with a jewellery-style clasp that complements the watch's elegant aesthetic.
At Cassims & Co., we are proud to be an authorised retailer for FOSSIL watches, ensuring every timepiece you purchase is backed by the brand's international warranty and our commitment to after-sales care. Whether you need a battery replacement, bracelet adjustment, or general servicing, our watch servicing and repairs team is always on hand to keep your timepiece performing flawlessly.

This watch's versatile design transitions effortlessly from boardroom to brunch, and its compact proportions make it an excellent choice for those who prefer a lighter, less obtrusive presence on the wrist. The mother-of-pearl dial is framed by a polished gold-tone bezel, and each of the twelve hour positions is marked with a subtle crystal, adding just enough sparkle without overwhelming the dial's organic iridescence. It is a timepiece that speaks quietly but with unmistakable confidence, perfect for anyone who values understated luxury and precision engineering.
