Description
The Michel Herbelin Fil is a 26 mm round ladies' quartz watch, driven by the Ronda 751 calibre, with a genuine mother of pearl dial and a stainless steel bracelet. It comes from a French house whose Fil collection is a staple of the range, and it sits among our Michel Herbelin watches as a compact, slim reference (17206/B19).
Case & crystal
The round case is stainless steel, measuring 26 mm across and 6.3 mm thick, and the bracelet is stainless steel too, so case and band match. Protecting the dial is a sapphire crystal, a hard material chosen for its resistance to everyday scratching.
Dial
The dial is genuine mother of pearl, which shifts in tone as light moves across the surface and as the wrist turns. Applied indices mark the hours, raised from the dial rather than printed on it, and the hours and minutes hands keep the display clean, with no seconds hand visible.
Movement
Inside is a Ronda 751 quartz calibre. Quartz delivers steady timekeeping without winding, which suits a watch that is worn daily and picked up without ceremony.
Bracelet & fit
The stainless steel bracelet closes with a fold-over link clasp, a secure and low-profile fastening that sits flat beneath the wrist. A matching metal bracelet and case give the watch a continuous, uniform line from lug to clasp.
On the wrist
At 26 mm in diameter and 6.3 mm thick, the case has a modest wrist presence and slips easily under a cuff. It suits smaller to medium wrists and works as a dress watch for the office or evening, as well as a daily companion. It is a ladies' model and also makes a considered gift for her.
Water resistance
The watch is water resistant to 30 metres. In plain terms, that covers splashes and rain, but it is not intended for swimming, showering or diving, so remove it before water activities. For watch servicing and repairs, our team can help, and you can browse all watches to compare it with other references.
To see the mother of pearl dial and the 26 mm case in person, visit our Mall of the South and Greenstone showrooms and try it on.

FAQ

Yes, the dial is genuine mother of pearl with applied indices. Its tone shifts with the light and the angle of the wrist.
It uses a Ronda 751 quartz calibre, so it does not need winding. As with any quartz watch, the battery will need replacing in time, which our servicing team can handle.
The watch is water resistant to 30 metres, which covers splashes and rain. It is not intended for swimming, showering or diving.
The watch has a sapphire crystal, which is a hard material that resists everyday scratching better than many alternatives.
It is a ladies' watch with a mother of pearl dial and a matching stainless steel bracelet, so it works well as a birthday or anniversary gift for her.
Warranty
Supplied with the 2-year international Michel Herbelin warranty, valid when purchased from an authorised retailer and registered at purchase through Cassims & Co. The warranty covers manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship; it does not cover normal wear, batteries, straps, glass, or damage from misuse or water ingress through an unscrewed crown.
Our watch service centre in Johannesburg handles warranty work, batteries, bracelet sizing and servicing.
Care guide
- Wipe the stainless steel case and bracelet with a soft, dry microfibre cloth after wearing to remove skin oils and fingerprints.
- Keep the watch away from water beyond splashes and rain, as it is water resistant to 30 metres only.
- Avoid knocks and contact with perfume, hairspray or cosmetics, which can mark the mother of pearl dial surface and the bracelet links.
- Fasten the fold-over link clasp fully each time and check it closes firmly before releasing the watch from your hand.
- Have the quartz movement and battery checked by a qualified watch technician when the watch stops or loses time.
- Store the watch separately from other jewellery to avoid contact scratches on the case and bracelet.
