The Fossil Harlow ES5435 is a refined expression of vintage-inspired elegance, designed for those who appreciate understated sophistication. This quartz timepiece features a distinctive cushion-shaped 27mm rose gold-tone stainless steel case that recalls the classic design codes of early 20th-century horology, yet remains thoroughly modern in execution. The champagne dial is adorned with bold Roman numeral hour markers and slender black hands, creating exceptional legibility whilst maintaining an air of timeless refinement.
Powered by a precision quartz movement, the Harlow delivers reliable three-hand timekeeping with minimal maintenance required. The embossed grey croco-pattern leather strap, measuring 16mm in width, adds textural interest and complements the warm rose gold case beautifully. Water-resistant to 3 ATM (30 metres), this watch is suitable for everyday wear and incidental splashes, though not intended for swimming or submersion.

FAQ
Q: Is this watch suitable for swimming?
A: The Fossil Harlow ES5435 has a water resistance rating of 3 ATM (30 metres), which makes it splash-resistant and suitable for everyday wear, including hand-washing and light rain. However, it is not suitable for swimming, showering, or any water submersion. We recommend removing the watch before any water activities.
Q: What type of battery does this watch use and how long does it last?
A: The Harlow ES5435 uses a standard quartz watch battery. Typically, a quartz battery will last between 2-3 years depending on usage. When your battery needs replacing, bring your watch to our Mall of the South boutique and our team can replace it for you with a genuine battery whilst ensuring the water-resistance seal is properly maintained.
Q: Will this 27mm case size fit my wrist?
A: The 27mm case diameter is considered a small to medium size, making it ideal for petite to average wrists (approximately 14cm to 17cm circumference). The cushion case shape wears slightly larger than its measurement suggests. We welcome you to visit our store to try the watch on and ensure the perfect fit.
Q: Can the leather strap be replaced?
A: Yes, the strap features a standard 16mm lug width, meaning it can be replaced with any compatible 16mm watch strap. Fossil offers interchangeable straps, or our team can assist you in selecting alternative strap options to personalise your timepiece.
Q: What is covered under the Fossil warranty?
A: This watch includes 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, strap wear, accidental damage, or water damage resulting from misuse. The warranty is only valid when purchased from an authorised Fossil retailer such as Cassim & Co.
Q: Is this watch appropriate for formal occasions?
A: Absolutely. The Fossil Harlow ES5435's vintage-inspired cushion case, Roman numeral dial, and rose gold finish make it exceptionally versatile. It transitions seamlessly from business meetings to evening events, and the grey croco leather strap adds a sophisticated touch that complements both casual and formal attire.
Q: Do you offer delivery across South Africa?
A: Yes, we offer secure nationwide delivery across South Africa. Your Fossil watch will be carefully packaged and fully insured during transit. Alternatively, you can collect your purchase from our Mall of the South boutique in Johannesburg, where our team can size the watch and demonstrate its features.
