The Michael Kors Lauryn MK3979 is a refined expression of contemporary femininity, where technical precision meets luxurious design. This 33mm two-tone quartz timepiece features a lustrous mother-of-pearl dial framed by a rose gold-plated bezel adorned with glittering crystals, creating a captivating interplay of light and texture. Roman numeral hour markers in rose gold provide classic legibility, while the clean dial layout ensures effortless time reading. The stainless steel case combines polished silver-tone and rose gold-plated finishes, lending the watch a sophisticated versatility that transitions seamlessly from boardroom to evening.
Powered by a reliable quartz movement, the Lauryn MK3979 delivers consistent accuracy without the need for daily winding. The two-tone bracelet features an intricate design with rose gold-plated centre links embellished with pavé crystals, alternating with polished silver-tone outer links. This 16mm bracelet secures via a push-button deployment clasp, ensuring both comfort and security on the wrist. A scratch-resistant mineral crystal protects the dial, while the solid case back provides water resistance suitable for everyday wear, though not intended for swimming or water sports.

FAQ
Q: Is the Michael Kors Lauryn MK3979 suitable for daily wear?
A: Yes, the Lauryn MK3979 is designed for everyday wear. Its quartz movement ensures reliable timekeeping, while the mineral crystal provides scratch resistance. However, it is not water-resistant enough for swimming or showering, so we recommend removing it during water-based activities.
Q: What is the case size of this watch, and will it suit smaller wrists?
A: The case measures 33mm in diameter, which is considered a mid-sized ladies' watch. This proportionate sizing makes it highly versatile and particularly well-suited to petite to average wrist sizes, offering presence without overwhelming the wrist.
Q: Are the crystals on the bezel and bracelet genuine?
A: The crystals adorning the bezel and centre bracelet links are high-quality synthetic stones set to Michael Kors' exacting standards. They provide excellent brilliance and durability while maintaining the accessible luxury positioning of the Lauryn collection.
Q: Can the bracelet be resized, and is this service included?
A: Yes, the bracelet can be professionally resized by removing or adding links. Cassim & Co. offers complimentary bracelet sizing with your purchase when you collect the watch from our Mall of the South boutique, or our servicing team can assist with adjustments at any time.
Q: How long does the battery typically last in this quartz watch?
A: A standard quartz battery in a Michael Kors watch typically lasts between 2-3 years, depending on usage. When replacement is needed, our watch servicing team can install a genuine battery and pressure-test the watch to maintain its integrity.
Q: Is this watch compatible with other Michael Kors straps?
A: Yes, the Lauryn MK3979 features a 16mm lug width and is compatible with other Michael Kors 16mm watch straps, allowing you to personalise the look with leather or alternative bracelet options available through the brand.
Q: Does this watch come with the full Michael Kors warranty when purchased from Cassim & Co.?
A: Absolutely. As an authorised Michael Kors retailer, every watch purchased from Cassim & Co. includes the complete 2-year international manufacturer warranty, along with all original packaging, documentation, and authenticity certification.

Care Guide
- Wipe the case and bracelet regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth to remove oils, perspiration, and residue that can dull the finish.
- Avoid exposing the watch to water beyond incidental splashes. Remove before showering, swimming, or washing hands to preserve water resistance seals.
- Store the watch in its original box or a dedicated watch case when not in use, protecting it from dust, humidity, and direct sunlight.
- Keep the watch away from strong magnetic fields (speakers, mobile phones, magnetic clasps) which can affect quartz movement accuracy.
- Have the battery replaced promptly when the watch stops or exhibits irregular timekeeping. Do not leave a depleted battery inside the movement, as leakage can cause internal damage.
- For the crystal-embellished bracelet, avoid contact with harsh chemicals, perfumes, cosmetics, and cleaning agents that may tarnish the plating or loosen stone settings.
- If the bracelet becomes loose or individual links show wear, visit our servicing team for inspection and tightening to prevent loss of components.
- Service the watch every 3-4 years for movement cleaning, seal inspection, and case refinishing to maintain optimal performance and appearance.
- Avoid impact or dropping the watch, as the mineral crystal and quartz movement can be damaged by sudden shocks.
- Remove the watch during vigorous sports, manual labour, or activities involving repetitive wrist motion to prevent accelerated wear.
