FAQ
Q: Is the Michael Kors Abbey MK4616 suitable for daily wear?
A: Absolutely. This watch is designed for everyday elegance with 50-metre water resistance protecting against splashes, hand washing, and light rain. The quartz movement ensures accurate timekeeping with minimal maintenance, requiring only a battery replacement every 2-3 years. The stainless steel construction and mineral crystal provide durability for daily use.
Q: What is the actual wrist size this bracelet will fit?
A: The bracelet is designed to fit wrists up to approximately 175mm in circumference. Our specialists at Cassim & Co. can adjust the bracelet by removing links to ensure a perfect fit for smaller wrists. This complimentary sizing service is available at our Mall of the South boutique or can be arranged with delivery orders.
Q: Are the crystals on the bezel and dial genuine diamonds?
A: No, the Abbey features high-quality pavé-set crystals (not diamonds) on both the bezel and the sub-dial detail at 6 o'clock. These crystals are precisely hand-set to create the signature sparkle associated with Michael Kors fashion watches, offering excellent visual impact at this price point.
Q: Can I swim or shower while wearing this watch?
A: While the Abbey has 50-metre water resistance, we do not recommend swimming, showering, or submerging the watch. The 5 ATM rating is suitable for accidental splashes and brief contact with water, but the crown is not screw-down and exposure to soap, shampoo, or prolonged immersion may compromise the seals over time.
Q: How often does the battery need replacing?
A: The SR626SW battery typically lasts 2-3 years depending on usage. When replacement is needed, visit our Mall of the South boutique where our watchmakers can replace the battery, pressure-test the case seals, and ensure the watch remains in optimal condition. This service helps maintain your warranty coverage.
Q: Will the rose gold colour fade or tarnish over time?
A: The rose gold finish is applied using PVD (Physical Vapour Deposition) coating, which is significantly more durable than traditional plating. With proper care—avoiding harsh chemicals, perfumes, and abrasive surfaces—the finish will maintain its lustre for many years. Normal wear may eventually show on high-contact areas, but this is a gradual process.
Q: Is this watch comes with original Michael Kors packaging?
A: Yes, every Michael Kors Abbey MK4616 from Cassim & Co. is delivered in original Michael Kors presentation packaging, complete with all accompanying documentation, warranty card, and instruction manual. As an authorised retailer, we guarantee 100% authenticity with full manufacturer support.
Warranty
- Warranty Period: This Michael Kors Abbey MK4616 is covered by a 2-year international manufacturer warranty from the date of purchase when purchased from an authorised retailer such as Cassim & Co.
- Coverage Includes: Manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship, movement malfunctions due to factory defects, case or crystal defects resulting from production errors, and bracelet or clasp failures under normal use.
- Warranty Exclusions: Normal wear and tear including scratches to case, bracelet, or crystal; battery replacement (batteries are consumable items); damage resulting from accidents, improper use, or unauthorised modifications; water damage resulting from misuse or failure to observe water resistance limitations; damage from exposure to chemicals, solvents, or extreme temperatures; and repairs or servicing performed by non-authorised service centres.
- Warranty Validation: The warranty is valid only when the watch is purchased from an authorised Michael Kors retailer. Proof of purchase must be presented for any warranty claim. The warranty card must be completed with purchase date and retailer stamp.
- Warranty Service: For warranty claims, contact Cassim & Co. directly at our Mall of the South boutique. We will assess the issue and coordinate with Michael Kors warranty service if a manufacturing defect is confirmed. Warranty service may take 4-6 weeks depending on parts availability.
- Post-Warranty Support: After the warranty period expires, Cassim & Co. continues to provide full servicing support including battery replacements, bracelet adjustments, case refinishing, and movement repairs at competitive rates through our in-house watchmakers.
- Water Resistance Maintenance: Water resistance is not a permanent condition. Seals and gaskets deteriorate over time and with use. We recommend having water resistance tested annually, especially if the watch is regularly exposed to moisture. Seal replacement is not covered under warranty as it is considered routine maintenance.
Care Guide
- Regular Cleaning: Wipe the case and bracelet with a soft, lint-free cloth after wearing to remove perspiration, oils, and daily residue. For deeper cleaning, use a slightly dampened cloth with mild soap, then dry thoroughly.
- Water Exposure: While water-resistant to 50 metres, avoid operating the crown while wet and never expose the watch to hot water, steam, or solvents which can compromise seals and damage the movement.
- Chemical Protection: Remove your watch before applying perfumes, lotions, hairsprays, or cleaning products. These chemicals can dull the crystal finish and degrade the PVD coating over time.
- Crown Care: Ensure the crown is pushed fully in against the case after any time adjustment. Never force the crown—if resistance is felt, consult our watchmakers to avoid damaging the stem.
- Storage: When not worn, store your Abbey in its original box or a watch case away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and magnetic fields (speakers, laptops, magnetic clasps).
- Bracelet Maintenance: Periodically check bracelet links and clasp for security. If the bracelet feels loose or pins appear to be shifting, visit our boutique for inspection and adjustment.
- Battery Service: When the watch stops or the seconds hand begins jumping in 4-second intervals, replace the battery promptly. A depleted battery left in the watch can leak and damage the movement.
- Professional Servicing: We recommend a complete service inspection every 3-4 years, including battery replacement, seal testing, and case refinishing if needed. This maintains optimal performance and appearance.
- Shock Protection: While designed for daily wear, avoid subjecting the watch to heavy impacts, vibrations, or dropping. Quartz movements are robust but can be damaged by severe shock.
