The Police Cranium Skeleton ref. PEWJM0081301 is a bold statement of contemporary horological design, marrying architectural tonneau case geometry with full skeletonised movement visibility. This distinctive timepiece features a 42mm stainless steel case with exposed screw detailing at each corner, framing a fully open-worked dial that reveals the intricate mechanics beneath. The skull-inspired gear bridge, adorned with crystal embellishments and twin pink jewel bearings, creates a dramatic three-dimensional visual narrative that extends beyond conventional watch aesthetics.
Powered by a reliable quartz movement, this Police watch delivers precision timekeeping within a design-forward package. The tonneau-shaped case sits comfortably on a black silicone strap with cutout detailing that echoes the architectural theme of the dial, whilst the mineral crystal provides clarity and protection. Water resistance to 5 ATM (50 metres) ensures suitability for everyday wear, and the watch carries the unmistakable DNA of POLICE watches — unapologetically bold, street-inspired, and crafted for those who refuse to blend in.
At Cassim & Co., we are proud to be an authorised retailer for Police, ensuring every timepiece comes with full international warranty protection and the backing of our experienced team. Whether you're drawn to the exposed mechanics, the confident 42mm proportions, or the skull motif that challenges traditional watchmaking conventions, the Cranium Skeleton represents a distinctive choice in modern Swiss-designed horology. Visit us at our Mall of the South boutique to experience this striking watch in person, and should you require battery replacement or strap adjustment in the future, our watch servicing and repairs team is always on hand to maintain your timepiece to the highest standards.

FAQ
Q: Is the Police Cranium Skeleton an automatic or quartz watch?
A: This is a quartz-powered timepiece, offering reliable accuracy and low-maintenance operation. The skeletonised dial reveals decorative gears and a skull motif bridge, creating the aesthetic of mechanical complexity whilst maintaining the precision of quartz technology.
Q: What is the case size of the Cranium Skeleton, and will it suit smaller wrists?
A: The case measures 42mm across, which is a moderate size in contemporary watch terms. The tonneau shape wears slightly smaller than a round case of equivalent diameter, and the silicone strap can be sized to fit wrists from approximately 160mm to 200mm comfortably.
Q: Can I wear this watch whilst swimming or in the shower?
A: With 5 ATM (50 metres) water resistance, the Cranium Skeleton is suitable for splashes, rain, and brief immersion such as handwashing. However, we do not recommend swimming, showering, or any activity involving hot water or prolonged submersion, as this may compromise the seals over time.
Q: What warranty does this Police watch carry?
A: When purchased from Cassim & Co. as an authorised Police retailer, this watch includes a 2-year international manufacturer's warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship. The warranty does not cover battery replacement, normal wear and tear, or damage resulting from misuse.
Q: Can the silicone strap be replaced or swapped?
A: Yes, the strap can be replaced. With a 28mm lug width, you can fit aftermarket straps of the same width, though we recommend visiting our Mall of the South boutique for professional fitting to ensure correct installation and to avoid damage to the case lugs.
Q: What is the meaning behind the skull design on the dial?
A: The skull motif is a signature element of Police's bold design language, representing strength, individuality, and a rebellious spirit. The gear bridge is shaped to resemble a stylised skull adorned with crystal embellishments, creating a three-dimensional centrepiece that captures light and attention.
Q: How often will the battery need replacing?
A: Quartz watch batteries typically last 2 to 3 years depending on usage and movement type. When replacement is required, our servicing team at Cassim & Co. can perform battery changes, pressure testing, and resealing to maintain the watch's water resistance integrity.

Care Guide
- Wipe the stainless steel case and silicone strap with a soft, lint-free cloth after wearing to remove perspiration, dust, and oils.
- Clean the silicone strap periodically with lukewarm water and mild soap, then rinse thoroughly and air dry. Avoid harsh chemicals or solvents.
- Do not expose the watch to extreme temperatures, strong magnetic fields, or direct impacts, as these may affect timekeeping accuracy or damage the movement.
- Avoid operating the crown or pushers (if applicable) whilst the watch is wet or submerged, as this may allow water ingress.
- Store the watch in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. A watch box or pouch is ideal to prevent scratches.
- Have the battery replaced by a qualified watchmaker when the watch stops or shows signs of low power. Do not leave a depleted battery in the watch, as leakage may damage the movement.
- Although water-resistant to 5 ATM, avoid prolonged exposure to water, and never wear the watch in hot showers, saunas, or whilst diving.
- The mineral crystal is scratch-resistant but not scratchproof. Avoid contact with abrasive surfaces or materials harder than glass.
- If the watch requires servicing, battery replacement, or pressure testing, visit our authorised service centre at Mall of the South to ensure warranty validity is maintained.
