FAQ
Q: Is the Fossil Scarlette ES4317 suitable for swimming?
A: With 50 metres water resistance, this watch is suitable for everyday splashes, hand washing, and brief immersion in shallow water. However, it is not recommended for swimming, diving, or showering, as steam and soap can compromise the seals. For aquatic activities, we recommend exploring dedicated dive watches from our collection.
Q: What type of battery does this watch use and how long does it last?
A: The ES4317 uses an SR626SW silver oxide battery, which typically provides 2-3 years of reliable operation depending on usage patterns. When replacement is needed, visit our Mall of the South boutique where our technicians can replace the battery and test the water resistance seals to ensure continued protection.
Q: Can the bracelet be adjusted to fit my wrist?
A: Absolutely. The stainless steel bracelet features removable links that allow for precise sizing. Our team at Cassim & Co. provides complimentary bracelet adjustment with your purchase, ensuring a perfect fit. The inner circumference is approximately 175mm as supplied, with adjustment available in both directions.
Q: Are the crystals on the bezel genuine diamonds?
A: The bezel is set with high-quality crystals rather than diamonds, allowing Fossil to deliver sparkling elegance at an accessible price point. These crystals are securely set and designed to maintain their brilliance with regular wear, though we recommend avoiding impact to preserve their lustre.
Q: What is the difference between quartz and automatic movements?
A: Quartz movements like the one in this Scarlette model are battery-powered and offer exceptional accuracy (typically +/- 15 seconds per month) with minimal maintenance. Automatic movements are mechanical, powered by wrist motion, and require no battery but need regular wear or winding. Quartz is ideal for those seeking precision and convenience.
Q: Does this watch come with the official Fossil warranty?
A: Yes, as authorised Fossil retailers, every ES4317 purchased from Cassim & Co. includes a 2-year international manufacturer warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship. This warranty is valid worldwide when purchased from authorised dealers and requires your original proof of purchase.
Q: Is nationwide delivery available for this watch?
A: Yes, we offer secure nationwide delivery across South Africa. Your Fossil Scarlette will arrive in its original presentation box with all documentation and warranty cards. For customers in Johannesburg, we invite you to visit our Mall of the South boutique to try the watch in person before purchasing.

Care Guide
- Clean the stainless steel case and bracelet regularly with a soft, slightly damp microfibre cloth to remove perspiration, dust, and oils.
- Avoid exposing the watch to extreme temperatures, strong magnetic fields, or harsh chemicals including perfumes, solvents, and cleaning agents.
- Do not operate the crown or pushers when the watch is wet or submerged, as this can compromise water resistance.
- After contact with chlorinated or salt water, rinse the watch with fresh water and dry thoroughly with a soft cloth.
- Have the battery replaced promptly when the watch stops or shows signs of low power, as a depleted battery can leak and damage the movement.
- Store your Fossil watch in its original box or a padded watch case when not wearing it, away from direct sunlight and humidity.
- We recommend professional servicing every 3-4 years to maintain optimal performance, including gasket replacement and water resistance testing.
- The crystal-set bezel should be protected from impact; while durable, sudden shocks can dislodge crystals or scratch the case.
- Remove your watch before engaging in high-impact sports, manual labour, or activities involving strong vibrations.
- Avoid exposing the watch to sudden temperature changes, such as moving from a hot environment directly into cold water.
