- R 2,999
The Fossil Stella ES5137 is a refined expression of feminine elegance, featuring a luminous white mother-of-pearl dial framed by a double row of crystal embellishments set into the bezel. This quartz timepiece combines the precision of a three-hand date movement with the sophistication of a polished stainless steel case and bracelet, creating a versatile accessory that transitions effortlessly from boardroom to evening engagements.
At 30mm in diameter, the Stella's case proportions are perfectly balanced for slender wrists, while the mineral crystal protects the dial without adding unnecessary bulk. Roman numeral markers at XII o'clock lend a classical touch to the contemporary design, and the date window positioned at 3 o'clock provides everyday functionality without compromising the dial's clean aesthetic. The silvered hands and indices catch the light beautifully against the iridescent mother-of-pearl backdrop, ensuring legibility in all lighting conditions.
As an authorised retailer of FOSSIL watches, Cassims & Co. guarantees the authenticity of every timepiece we offer, and this Stella reference comes with the full 2-year international manufacturer's warranty. The stainless steel bracelet features a secure push-button deployment clasp and is sized to fit comfortably, though our watch servicing and repairs team can adjust the bracelet length at no additional charge when you collect your purchase. Whether you're seeking a daily-wear watch that complements professional attire or an elegant accessory for special occasions, the Stella ES5137 delivers understated luxury with the reliability Fossil has built its reputation upon.
We invite you to experience the Stella in person at our Mall of the South boutique in Johannesburg, where our knowledgeable staff can demonstrate the watch's features and ensure the perfect fit. For customers beyond Gauteng, we offer secure nationwide delivery across South Africa, bringing authorised Fossil timepieces directly to your door with full warranty protection and our commitment to after-sales service excellence.

FAQ
Q: Is the Fossil Stella ES5137 suitable for everyday wear?
A: Yes, the Stella ES5137 is designed as a versatile everyday timepiece. Its 30mm case size is ideal for daily wear, and the stainless steel construction ensures durability. However, as the manufacturer does not specify water resistance ratings, we recommend removing the watch before swimming, showering, or exposure to moisture.
Q: Are the stones on the bezel genuine crystals?
A: The Fossil Stella ES5137 features crystal embellishments set into the bezel in a double-row configuration. These are precision-cut crystals designed to add sparkle and elegance to the timepiece, though Fossil does not specify the exact crystal type in their technical documentation.
Q: Can the bracelet be resized to fit my wrist?
A: Absolutely. The stainless steel bracelet can be professionally resized by our in-house watchmakers at Cassims & Co. When you purchase the Stella ES5137 from us, bracelet sizing is included complimentary with your purchase. We recommend visiting our Mall of the South boutique for precise fitting, or our team can adjust the bracelet when you collect your order.
Q: How often will I need to replace the battery?
A: Quartz watch batteries typically last between 2 to 3 years depending on usage patterns. When your Stella requires a battery replacement, our watch servicing team can perform this service using genuine replacement cells. We recommend having the watch professionally serviced rather than visiting a non-authorised repairer to maintain your warranty coverage.
Q: Is this watch covered by a manufacturer's warranty?
A: Yes, when purchased from Cassims & Co. as an authorised Fossil retailer, the Stella ES5137 includes a full 2-year international manufacturer's warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship. The warranty is valid from the date of purchase and requires the original proof of purchase from an authorised dealer.
Q: What makes mother-of-pearl dials special?
A: Mother-of-pearl is prized in watchmaking for its natural iridescence, which creates a subtle play of light and colour that changes with viewing angle. Each mother-of-pearl dial is unique due to the organic nature of the material, meaning your Stella ES5137 has a one-of-a-kind aesthetic that cannot be exactly replicated. The material also adds a luxurious touch to the watch's overall presentation.
Q: Can I wear this watch with other jewellery?
A: The Stella ES5137's silver-toned stainless steel pairs beautifully with white gold, platinum, or sterling silver jewellery. The crystal-set bezel also complements diamond or white sapphire pieces. For a cohesive look, consider coordinating with similarly toned bracelets or rings, though the watch's elegant design is equally striking when worn alone as a statement piece.
Warranty
- Warranty Coverage: This Fossil Stella ES5137 is covered by a 2-year international manufacturer's warranty from the date of purchase when bought from an authorised Fossil retailer such as Cassims & Co.
- What Is Covered: 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 faults.
- What Is Not Covered: The warranty does not cover normal wear and tear, scratches or cosmetic damage to the case or bracelet, battery depletion or replacement, damage caused by accidents or impacts, water damage resulting from misuse or failure to observe water resistance limitations, damage from unauthorised repairs or modifications, or damage from exposure to chemicals or extreme temperatures.
- Warranty Validity: The warranty is only valid when the watch is purchased from an authorised Fossil retailer. You must present the original proof of purchase showing the date and retailer details when making a warranty claim.
- Service Requirements: All warranty service must be carried out by authorised Fossil service centres. Attempting repairs through unauthorised third parties will void the manufacturer's warranty immediately.

Care Guide
- Daily Care: Wipe the case and bracelet with a soft, lint-free cloth after wearing to remove perspiration, oils, and cosmetic residue that can dull the finish over time.
- Bracelet Cleaning: Clean the stainless steel bracelet periodically using lukewarm water with a small amount of mild soap and a soft brush. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely with a soft cloth. Ensure the crown is pushed in fully during cleaning.
- Crystal Protection: Avoid contact with hard surfaces that could scratch the mineral crystal. While mineral crystal is scratch-resistant, it is not scratch-proof. Store the watch separately from other jewellery to prevent surface damage.
- Water Exposure: As Fossil does not specify water resistance for this model, avoid all contact with water including handwashing, rain, and humidity. Remove the watch before any water-based activities.
- Chemical Avoidance: Keep the watch away from solvents, detergents, perfumes, cosmetics, and household chemicals which can damage the case finish, crystal clarity, and bracelet lustre.
- Magnetic Fields: Store away from strong magnetic fields generated by speakers, mobile phones, magnetic clasps, and electronic devices, as magnetisation can affect quartz movement accuracy.
- Storage: When not wearing your Stella, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Use the original Fossil presentation box or a dedicated watch case to protect it from dust and impacts.
- Professional Servicing: Have your watch inspected every 2-3 years by authorised technicians. Battery replacement should only be performed by qualified watchmakers to maintain water integrity and warranty validity.
- Crown Care: Ensure the crown is always pushed fully in to its normal position. Never pull the crown out or adjust the time while the watch is wet or submerged.
