FAQ
Q: Is the Police Daintree suitable for swimming?
A: With 5 ATM (50 metres) water resistance, the Daintree is suitable for everyday splashes, hand washing, and brief immersion. However, it is not recommended for swimming, showering, or water sports. The chronograph pushers should never be operated underwater.
Q: What functions does the multi-function display include?
A: The Police Daintree PEWGQ2203604 features a quartz chronograph movement with multiple sub-dials displaying chronograph functions, day-date complications, and 24-hour indication. The precise layout includes hours, minutes, seconds, and additional timing capabilities typical of a sports chronograph.
Q: Can I replace the silicone strap with a different style?
A: Yes, the Daintree features a 26mm lug width, allowing you to swap the factory silicone strap for alternative options. However, due to the distinctive tonneau case shape and integrated lug design, we recommend consulting with our team at Cassim & Co. to ensure proper fitment and compatibility.
Q: What type of battery does this watch use and how long does it last?
A: The Police Daintree uses a standard quartz watch battery. Battery life typically ranges from 2-3 years depending on usage of the chronograph functions. When battery replacement is needed, visit Cassim & Co. where our watchmakers can service your timepiece and ensure water resistance integrity is maintained.
Q: Is the gunmetal finish durable?
A: The gunmetal finish is achieved through PVD (Physical Vapour Deposition) coating on stainless steel, which provides excellent durability and scratch resistance. However, like all coated finishes, it may show wear over time with heavy use. Proper care will maintain the distinctive appearance for years.
Q: Does this watch come with the full Police warranty?
A: Yes, as an authorised Police retailer, Cassim & Co. provides the full 2-year international Police warranty with every Daintree purchase. This covers manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship when purchased from authorised dealers.
Q: What makes the Police Daintree different from other chronographs?
A: The Daintree stands out with its distinctive tonneau (barrel-shaped) case design, architectural skeletonised dial, crown guard detailing, and bold 48x56mm proportions. The combination of gunmetal finish with blue sub-dial accents creates a unique aesthetic that's immediately recognisable as Police's contemporary design language.

Care Guide
- Daily Wear: Avoid exposing your Police watch to extreme temperatures, strong magnetic fields, and harsh chemicals including perfumes, solvents, and cleaning agents.
- Water Resistance: With 5 ATM rating, avoid operating the chronograph pushers when wet. After any water exposure, dry the watch thoroughly with a soft cloth.
- Silicone Strap Care: Clean the blue silicone strap regularly with mild soap and water to remove dirt, perspiration, and oils. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry completely.
- Case and Crystal: Wipe the gunmetal case and mineral crystal with a soft, lint-free microfibre cloth to remove fingerprints and smudges. Avoid abrasive materials that may scratch the PVD coating.
- Chronograph Functions: Do not operate the chronograph pushers underwater or when the crown is pulled out. Use chronograph functions sparingly to preserve battery life.
- Storage: When not wearing your watch, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid leaving it on speakers or electronic devices that generate magnetic fields.
- Battery Replacement: When the watch stops or shows signs of weak battery (second hand jumping), have the battery replaced promptly by a qualified watchmaker to prevent potential leakage damage.
- Professional Service: We recommend having your Police Daintree inspected every 2-3 years to ensure water resistance seals remain intact and the movement is functioning optimally.
- Impact Protection: While built robustly, avoid subjecting your watch to severe shocks or impacts that may affect the quartz movement or case integrity.
