The Fossil Raquel ES5367 is a refined expression of vintage-inspired elegance, designed for those who appreciate understated sophistication. Its distinctive rectangular case, rendered in a warm gold-tone finish, evokes the Art Deco aesthetics of the 1920s while remaining thoroughly contemporary in its execution. The 23mm x 38mm case dimensions create a perfectly proportioned presence on the wrist, neither oversized nor diminutive, striking that rare balance between statement piece and everyday wearability.
The chocolate brown dial serves as the watch's focal point, featuring Roman numeral hour markers that radiate from a subtly recessed central sub-dial. A practical date window sits discreetly at 6 o'clock, while the gold-tone hands sweep across the dial with precision. The dial's rich brown tone complements the embossed crocodile-pattern LiteHide™ leather strap, creating a cohesive aesthetic that speaks to Fossil's attention to material harmony. At Cassim & Co., we are proud to be an authorised Fossil retailer, ensuring every timepiece comes with full manufacturer backing and authenticity.
Powered by a reliable quartz three-hand date movement, the Raquel delivers accurate timekeeping without the maintenance requirements of mechanical calibres. The 5 ATM water resistance rating provides reassurance during everyday wear, protecting against splashes and brief immersion. The watch's interchangeable 12mm strap compatibility allows for effortless personalisation, enabling you to switch between different leather straps or experiment with alternative materials to suit your mood or occasion.
This timepiece finds its place naturally within our broader selection of FOSSIL watches, a collection that consistently delivers American heritage watchmaking with accessible price points. Whether you're seeking a watch for boardroom meetings or weekend brunches, the Raquel's versatility makes it an invaluable addition to any jewellery box.

FAQ
Q: Is this watch suitable for swimming or showering?
A: The Fossil Raquel ES5367 has a water resistance rating of 5 ATM (50 metres), which means it can withstand splashes, rain, and brief immersion in water. However, it is not suitable for swimming, showering, or water sports. The leather strap should also be kept away from prolonged water exposure to maintain its quality and appearance.
Q: What type of battery does this watch use and how long does it last?
A: The Fossil Raquel uses a standard quartz watch battery. Typically, Fossil quartz batteries last between 2-3 years depending on usage. When replacement is needed, our authorised service centre can replace the battery whilst maintaining your watch's water resistance seals and warranty coverage.
Q: Can I change the leather strap to a different colour or style?
A: Yes, the Raquel ES5367 features a 12mm interchangeable strap system, allowing you to easily swap the original brown leather strap for other 12mm straps. Fossil offers a range of compatible straps in various colours and materials, enabling you to personalise your watch to match different outfits or occasions.
Q: What is LiteHide™ leather and how does it differ from regular leather?
A: LiteHide™ is Fossil's proprietary leather alternative that replicates the look and feel of genuine leather whilst being more sustainable and animal-friendly. It offers comparable durability and aesthetic appeal to traditional leather, with the embossed crocodile pattern adding textural interest to the strap.
Q: Is this watch suitable for formal occasions?
A: Absolutely. The Fossil Raquel's rectangular gold-tone case, brown dial with Roman numerals, and crocodile-embossed leather strap create a sophisticated vintage aesthetic that pairs beautifully with formal attire. Its refined proportions and classic design language make it equally appropriate for business meetings, evening events, or smart-casual settings.
Q: Does this watch come with the original Fossil packaging?
A: Yes, when purchased from Cassim & Co. as an authorised Fossil retailer, the Raquel ES5367 comes in its original Fossil presentation box with all accompanying documentation, including the international warranty card and instruction manual.
Q: Will the gold-tone finish fade or tarnish over time?
A: The gold-tone finish on the Fossil Raquel is applied using industry-standard PVD or plating techniques designed for durability. With proper care—avoiding harsh chemicals, perfumes applied directly to the case, and storing the watch in a dry environment when not worn—the finish should maintain its lustre for many years. Normal wear may result in minor surface marks over time, which is typical for all plated watches.

Care Guide
- Clean the case and crystal regularly with a soft, lint-free microfibre cloth to remove fingerprints, dust, and oils.
- Avoid exposing the watch to perfumes, cosmetics, cleaning products, and other chemicals that may damage the gold-tone finish or leather strap.
- Keep the leather strap dry whenever possible. If it becomes wet, allow it to air-dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
- Remove the watch before showering, swimming, or engaging in water sports, as the 5 ATM rating is not suitable for submersion.
- Store your watch in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not being worn, preferably in its original box or a watch case.
- Avoid exposing the watch to extreme temperatures, which can affect both the quartz movement's accuracy and the leather strap's integrity.
- Have the battery replaced by an authorised service centre when needed to ensure water resistance seals are properly maintained.
- If the leather strap shows signs of wear or cracking, consider replacing it with a genuine Fossil 12mm strap to maintain the watch's aesthetic and comfort.
- Avoid impacts, drops, and strong magnetic fields, which can damage the movement or affect timekeeping accuracy.
