The Guess Taylor GW1157L1 redefines elegant timekeeping with its distinctive square case and white Roman numeral dial, encased in brilliant crystal embellishments that catch the light at every turn. This refined ladies' timepiece measures 21mm in diameter, delivering delicate proportions that sit beautifully on the wrist, while the 7mm case height maintains a sleek, contemporary profile. The white dial's classic Roman numerals create timeless sophistication, framed by a square case adorned with precision-set crystals along the bezel and bracelet integration points.
Crafted entirely in polished stainless steel, the integrated bracelet design flows seamlessly from case to clasp, punctuated by crystal-set links that transform this watch into a piece of jewellery. The mineral crystal protects the dial whilst maintaining perfect clarity, and the quartz movement ensures reliable accuracy for daily wear. At Cassims & Co., we are proud to offer this stunning example of Guess's ability to blend fashion-forward design with functional horology.
The Taylor collection represents Guess's mastery of accessible luxury, where statement style meets everyday wearability. This particular reference balances ornate detailing with wearable dimensions, making it equally suited to boardroom presentations and evening occasions. The silver-tone finish and white dial combination offers versatile styling potential, complementing both warm and cool metallic accessories.

FAQ
Q: Is the Guess Taylor GW1157L1 suitable for daily wear?
A: Absolutely. The quartz movement requires minimal maintenance beyond periodic battery changes, and the mineral crystal provides solid scratch resistance for everyday use. The stainless steel construction ensures durability, though we recommend removing the watch during activities involving impact or exposure to harsh chemicals to preserve the crystal embellishments.
Q: How do the crystal embellishments affect the watch's durability?
A: The crystals are securely set into the case and bracelet, designed to withstand normal daily wear. Avoid knocking the watch against hard surfaces, and store it separately from other jewellery to prevent scratching. With proper care, the stones will maintain their brilliance for years.
Q: Can the bracelet be adjusted to fit my wrist?
A: Yes, the stainless steel bracelet can be professionally resized by removing or adding links. Visit our Mall of the South boutique for complimentary sizing assistance, or contact our team for bracelet adjustment services if you've purchased online.
Q: What type of battery does this watch use?
A: The Guess Taylor uses a standard watch battery suitable for quartz movements. Battery life typically ranges from 18 to 36 months depending on usage. Our servicing team can replace the battery whilst checking the watch's seals and overall condition.
Q: Is this watch water-resistant enough for handwashing?
A: While splash-resistant, this watch is not rated for submersion. It will tolerate incidental water exposure such as handwashing or light rain, but should be removed before showering, swimming, or any water-based activities to preserve the movement and seals.
Q: Does the square case make the watch wear larger than 21mm suggests?
A: The square shape does create visual presence beyond what a 21mm round case would deliver, sitting elegantly on smaller to medium wrists. The integrated bracelet design extends this presence further, creating a cohesive jewellery-like aesthetic rather than a traditional watch silhouette.
Q: How should I clean the crystal-set areas of the bracelet?
A: Use a soft, slightly damp cloth to gently wipe the bracelet and case. For deeper cleaning around the crystal settings, a soft-bristled brush (such as a clean makeup brush) can remove accumulated debris. Avoid ultrasonic cleaners and harsh chemicals that might affect the stone settings or metal finish.
Warranty
- This Guess timepiece is backed by the manufacturer's warranty — full terms and duration confirmed at point of sale.
- Warranty coverage typically includes manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship under normal use conditions.
- The warranty does not cover damage resulting from accidents, improper use, unauthorised repairs, battery replacements performed outside authorised service centres, or normal wear and tear including crystal scratches and bracelet finish degradation.
- Water damage is excluded from warranty coverage if the watch has been submerged beyond its stated resistance rating or if seals have been compromised by unauthorised opening.
- Crystal embellishments are covered for setting defects but not for loss resulting from impact or improper handling.
- To maintain warranty validity, retain your proof of purchase and ensure all servicing is performed by authorised Guess service centres or Cassims & Co.'s qualified watchmakers.
- As authorised Guess retailers, Cassims & Co. will facilitate all warranty claims and provide guidance on coverage eligibility for any issues that arise during the warranty period.
Care Guide
- Wipe the stainless steel case and bracelet with a soft, lint-free cloth after wear to remove oils, perspiration, and environmental residue that can dull the finish over time.
- Clean crystal-set areas with a barely damp cloth or soft brush, taking care not to dislodge stones or allow water to penetrate the case.
- Avoid exposure to harsh chemicals including perfumes, cleaning products, chlorine, and saltwater, which can damage the steel finish and compromise seals.
- Remove the watch before engaging in sports, heavy lifting, or impact activities to protect the movement, crystal, and stone settings.
- Store the watch separately from other jewellery in a soft pouch or watch box to prevent scratches to the mineral crystal and maintain the brilliance of the embellishments.
- Have the battery replaced by a professional watchmaker when the watch stops or shows irregular timekeeping — this ensures proper resealing and pressure testing.
- Do not attempt to open the case back yourself, as this risks damaging seals and voiding warranty coverage.
- Keep the watch away from strong magnetic fields (speakers, magnetic clasps, electronic devices) that can affect quartz movement accuracy.
- If the bracelet becomes stiff or difficult to operate, visit our servicing team for professional cleaning and lubrication of the links and clasp mechanism.
