Housed in a gold-tone stainless steel case measuring 28.2mm in width and 38.4mm in length, this ladies' watch offers refined proportions that sit gracefully on the wrist. The silvered white dial features bold Roman numeral hour markers and a minutely detailed railway track, creating a harmonious composition that references traditional watchmaking design codes.

FAQ
Q: Is this watch suitable for everyday wear?
A: Yes, the Seiko SWR108P1 is designed for everyday elegance. Its quartz movement requires minimal maintenance, the Hardlex crystal offers excellent scratch resistance, and the 5 bar water resistance protects against accidental splashes and brief immersion. The slim 6.9mm profile makes it comfortable for all-day wear and easily slides beneath a shirt cuff.
Q: What does the 5 bar water resistance rating mean?
A: A 5 bar (50 metre) water resistance rating means this watch can withstand splashes, rain, and brief immersion in water, such as washing hands. However, it is not suitable for swimming, showering, or any water sports. We recommend removing the watch before any prolonged contact with water to maintain its longevity.
Q: How often does the battery need to be replaced?
A: Seiko quartz movements typically provide 2-3 years of battery life, depending on usage. When your watch requires a battery replacement, visit us at our Mall of the South boutique where our qualified technicians can replace the battery whilst ensuring the watch's water resistance seals are properly maintained.
Q: Can the leather strap be adjusted or replaced?
A: Yes, the leather strap can be sized to fit your wrist using the pin buckle clasp. If you require professional adjustment or wish to replace the strap in the future, our team at Cassim & Co. can assist with sizing and sourcing genuine Seiko replacement straps to suit your preferences.
Q: What is Hardlex crystal and how does it compare to sapphire?
A: Hardlex is Seiko's proprietary mineral crystal that offers excellent scratch resistance and clarity at an accessible price point. While sapphire crystal is harder and more scratch-resistant, Hardlex provides outstanding durability for everyday wear and is less prone to shattering upon impact, making it a practical choice for this elegant timepiece.
Q: Does this watch come with a Seiko warranty?
A: Yes, as an authorised Seiko retailer, Cassim & Co. provides a full 3-year international Seiko warranty with this watch. The warranty covers manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship and is valid from the date of purchase. You will receive all official Seiko documentation and warranty cards with your timepiece.
Q: Is this watch suitable as a gift?
A: Absolutely. The Seiko SWR108P1's timeless rectangular design, classical Roman numerals, and elegant gold-tone finish make it an exceptional gift for any occasion. We offer complimentary gift packaging, and our team can assist with sizing adjustments to ensure the perfect fit for the recipient. The watch's versatile aesthetic suits both professional and formal occasions.

Care Guide
- Regular Cleaning: Wipe the case and crystal with a soft, lint-free cloth after wearing to remove perspiration, dust, and oils. For the leather strap, use a slightly damp cloth and allow it to air dry completely away from direct heat.
- Water Exposure: Whilst this watch has 5 bar water resistance, avoid wearing it during swimming, showering, or water sports. Always ensure the crown is pushed fully in against the case to maintain water resistance.
- Leather Strap Care: Leather straps are susceptible to moisture damage. Remove the watch before washing hands when possible, and avoid exposing the strap to perfumes, lotions, or cleaning products. Allow wet straps to dry naturally at room temperature.
- Crown Operation: When adjusting the time, pull the crown out gently. After setting, ensure the crown is pushed back completely against the case. Never attempt to adjust the time whilst the watch is wet.
- Storage: When not wearing your watch, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, strong magnetic fields, and extreme temperatures. The original presentation box provides ideal storage conditions.
- Battery Replacement: When the watch stops or the seconds hand begins to jump irregularly, the battery requires replacement. Visit our boutique for professional battery replacement to ensure water resistance integrity is maintained.
- Avoid Impact: Whilst robust for daily wear, avoid subjecting your watch to severe shocks or impacts. Remove it during activities such as sports or manual labour where impact might occur.
- Chemical Exposure: Avoid contact with solvents, perfumes, cosmetics, and cleaning products, as these can damage the case finish, crystal, and particularly the leather strap.
- Professional Servicing: We recommend having your quartz watch inspected every 3-4 years, or whenever battery replacement is required, to ensure all seals and components remain in optimal condition.
