Description
The Fossil Everett Sport FS5986 represents a refined approach to contemporary sports watchmaking, combining precision quartz timekeeping with a distinctive aesthetic presence. The 42mm stainless steel case houses a striking blue dial with a sunburst guilloché texture that radiates from the centre, creating a dynamic interplay of light and shadow. Polished hour indices and hands with luminous accents ensure legibility, while the date aperture at 6 o'clock adds practical functionality. This watch is designed for the modern individual who values both performance and style.
Powered by a reliable quartz three-hand date movement, the FS5986 delivers exceptional accuracy and low-maintenance performance. The integrated stainless steel bracelet features a mix of polished and brushed finishes, creating visual depth while maintaining comfort on the wrist. Water resistance to 5 ATM (50 metres) protects the movement from splashes and brief immersion, making this timepiece suitable for daily wear in varied conditions. At Cassims & Co., we are proud to be an authorised retailer for FOSSIL watches, ensuring every timepiece carries the full manufacturer warranty and after-sales support.
The Everett Sport collection from Fossil draws inspiration from 1970s integrated bracelet designs, reimagined for the contemporary wearer. The bezel-less case design flows seamlessly into the bracelet links, creating a cohesive architectural statement. This model's blue dial offers a versatile alternative to traditional black or white sport watches, pairing equally well with business attire or weekend casual wear. The 42mm diameter strikes a balance between presence and wearability, suitable for a wide range of wrist sizes.

FAQ
Q: What type of movement powers the Fossil Everett Sport FS5986?
A: This watch is powered by a quartz three-hand date movement, which provides accurate timekeeping with minimal maintenance. Quartz movements are battery-powered and require a battery replacement approximately every 2-3 years, a service we can perform at our Johannesburg showrooms.
Q: Is the Fossil FS5986 suitable for swimming or water sports?
A: The FS5986 has a water resistance rating of 5 ATM (50 metres), which means it is suitable for splashes, brief immersion, and showering. However, it is not recommended for swimming, diving, or any water sports activities. Avoid operating the crown while the watch is wet or submerged.
Q: Can the stainless steel bracelet be adjusted to fit my wrist?
A: Yes, the stainless steel bracelet can be professionally adjusted by removing or adding links to achieve the perfect fit. Our specialists at Cassims & Co. provide complimentary bracelet sizing with your purchase. We recommend visiting our boutique for precise fitting, though we can also provide guidance for nationwide delivery orders.
Q: What is the diameter of this watch and will it suit smaller wrists?
A: The Fossil Everett Sport FS5986 has a case diameter of 42mm, which is considered a versatile mid-size in contemporary watchmaking. This diameter typically suits wrist circumferences from 15cm to 20cm comfortably. We recommend trying the watch in person at our boutique to assess the fit and proportions on your specific wrist size.
Q: Does this watch come with luminous hands for low-light visibility?
A: Yes, the hands and hour indices feature luminous material that charges in daylight and emits a glow in low-light conditions. This enhances legibility when checking the time in dimly lit environments, though the luminosity duration is moderate compared to higher-specification tool watches.
Q: Is the Fossil FS5986 covered by an official manufacturer warranty?
A: Yes, when purchased from Cassims & Co., an authorised Fossil retailer, this watch carries a 2-year international Fossil warranty from the date of purchase. The warranty covers manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship. It does not cover normal wear and tear, battery replacement, accidental damage, or water damage resulting from misuse.
Q: What is the difference between this Everett Sport model and other Fossil collections?
A: The Everett Sport collection is distinguished by its integrated bracelet design, where the case flows seamlessly into the bracelet links without visible lugs. This creates a cohesive, architectural aesthetic inspired by 1970s sports watches. The FS5986 specifically features a guilloché sunburst blue dial, offering a more refined alternative to Fossil's casual or chronograph-focused collections.
Warranty
- Warranty Period: This Fossil watch is covered by a 2-year international manufacturer warranty from the date of purchase when bought from an authorised retailer such as Cassims & Co.
- Coverage: The warranty covers manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship under normal use conditions. This includes defects in the movement, case, dial, hands, and bracelet that arise from factory production issues.
- Exclusions: The warranty does not cover normal wear and tear, including scratches, dents, or cosmetic damage to the case, crystal, or bracelet. Battery replacement, routine maintenance, and bracelet adjustments are not covered. Damage resulting from accidents, misuse, improper handling, unauthorised repairs, or water damage due to improper use or failure to observe water resistance limits is excluded.
- Water Damage: Water resistance is not a permanent condition and can diminish over time due to aging of seals and gaskets. The warranty does not cover water damage resulting from failure to have seals tested regularly, operating the crown while wet, or exposing the watch to conditions beyond its rated water resistance.
- Authorised Service: Warranty repairs must be performed by authorised Fossil service centres. Unauthorised repairs or modifications void the warranty entirely. Always retain your original purchase receipt as proof of purchase date and authorised retailer status.
- Claim Process: To make a warranty claim, bring the watch with its original box, papers, and purchase receipt to Cassims & Co. at our Mall of the South location. We will assess the issue and coordinate with Fossil's service centre for warranty repairs. Processing times vary depending on the nature of the repair and parts availability.
- After-Sales Support: Cassims & Co. provides ongoing after-sales support for all watches purchased from us, including battery replacements, bracelet sizing, and guidance on care and maintenance. While these services are not covered under manufacturer warranty, they are available at our boutique at competitive rates.
Care guide
- Regular Cleaning: Wipe the case and bracelet with a soft, lint-free cloth after each wear to remove perspiration, oils, and dust. For deeper cleaning, use a slightly dampened cloth with mild soap, then dry thoroughly. Ensure the crown is fully pushed in before any contact with moisture.
- Water Resistance Maintenance: While rated to 5 ATM, avoid exposing the watch to hot water, steam, or solvents, as these can compromise the seals. Never operate the crown or pushers when the watch is wet. Have the water resistance tested annually if you frequently expose the watch to moisture.
- Battery Replacement: When the seconds hand begins to jump in 4-second intervals or the watch stops, the battery requires replacement. Visit our boutique or an authorised service centre for professional battery replacement to maintain water resistance integrity. Do not attempt to replace the battery yourself, as this may void the warranty.
- Bracelet Care: The stainless steel bracelet is durable but can accumulate dirt between the links. Periodically clean between links using a soft brush and mild soapy water, then dry completely. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could scratch the polished surfaces.
- Storage: When not wearing the watch, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, magnetic fields, and extreme temperatures. Keep it in its original box or a watch case to prevent scratches. Avoid storing near electronics or speakers that generate magnetic fields, though quartz movements are less susceptible than mechanical movements.
- Service Intervals: Quartz watches require minimal servicing compared to mechanical timepieces. We recommend a professional inspection every 3-4 years to check seals, clean the movement, and verify timekeeping accuracy. This preventative maintenance extends the lifespan of your Fossil watch significantly.
- Impact Protection: While built for daily wear, avoid subjecting the watch to heavy impacts or shocks, such as during contact sports or manual labour. Remove the watch during activities that may expose it to extreme conditions or strong magnetic fields.
