The Police Disruptor I (PEWGM0072001) is a bold statement in contemporary watchmaking, fusing architectural design with uncompromising urban attitude. This striking timepiece features a fully skeletonised dial that exposes the intricate mechanical architecture within, framed by a distinctive octagonal black PVD-coated stainless steel case measuring 45mm across. The openworked design reveals the quartz movement's gears and components, creating a three-dimensional visual experience that challenges conventional watch aesthetics. The "P" logo sits prominently at 12 o'clock, anchoring the industrial composition with brand heritage.
Crafted for those who refuse to blend in, this Police watch pairs its aggressive case architecture with a navy blue silicone strap featuring integrated cutout details that echo the skeletonised dial. The strap's two-tone construction alternates between solid navy sections and black accents, creating visual continuity with the case while ensuring all-day comfort and durability. Mineral crystal glass protects the dial, while 5 ATM (50 metres) water resistance provides practical everyday functionality. The watch is secured with a robust textured crown and bolted case construction, reinforcing its industrial design language.

FAQ
Q: What does the skeletonised dial show?
A: The skeletonised dial exposes the internal components of the quartz movement, including visible gears, the balance wheel mechanism, and structural bridges. This openworked design creates a three-dimensional architectural effect, allowing you to see the mechanical operation beneath the dial surface.
Q: Is this watch suitable for swimming?
A: With 5 ATM (50 metres) water resistance, this watch is suitable for everyday activities including hand washing and light rain exposure. However, it is not recommended for swimming, showering, or water sports. The water resistance rating is designed for splashes and brief immersion only.
Q: How often does the battery need replacement?
A: Quartz watch batteries typically last between 2-3 years depending on usage. When battery replacement is needed, visit Cassims & Co. and our watchmakers will replace it with a genuine battery while checking the seals and water resistance integrity.
Q: What is the lug width for strap changes?
A: The specific lug width is not confirmed from available specifications. For information about compatible strap options or custom strap orders, please contact our Mall of the South boutique directly, and our team can measure and advise on aftermarket options.
Q: Is the black PVD coating durable?
A: PVD (Physical Vapour Deposition) coating is highly durable and scratch-resistant, significantly more so than traditional plating. However, extreme impacts or abrasion against hard surfaces can cause marking over time. Handle with reasonable care to maintain the finish.
Q: Can the silicone strap be replaced?
A: Yes, the silicone strap can be replaced with compatible aftermarket options or genuine Police replacement straps. Visit Cassims & Co. for professional strap changes and sizing adjustments to ensure proper fit and case protection.
Q: What warranty comes with this Police watch?
A: This watch includes a 2-year international Police warranty covering manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship when purchased from an authorised retailer like Cassims & Co. The warranty does not cover battery replacement, normal wear, or damage from misuse.
Warranty
- This Police watch is covered by a 2-year international manufacturer's warranty from the date of purchase.
- The warranty is valid only when the watch is purchased from an authorised Police retailer such as Cassims & Co.
- The warranty covers manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship under normal use conditions.
- The warranty does not cover normal wear and tear, battery replacement, strap wear, scratches to the case or crystal, or cosmetic deterioration.
- Water damage resulting from misuse, improper operation of the crown while wet, or damage to seals is not covered.
- Accidental damage, impacts, unauthorised modifications, or repairs performed by non-authorised service centres will void the warranty.
- To claim under warranty, you must present the original proof of purchase from Cassims & Co. along with the completed warranty card.

Care Guide
- Wipe the case and silicone strap regularly with a soft, slightly damp cloth to remove perspiration, dust, and oils that can accumulate during wear.
- For deeper cleaning of the silicone strap, use mild soapy water and a soft brush, then rinse thoroughly and dry completely before wearing.
- Never operate the crown while the watch is wet or submerged, as this can compromise water resistance and allow moisture ingress into the movement.
- Avoid exposing the watch to extreme temperatures, strong magnetic fields, harsh chemicals, solvents, or perfumes, which can damage the movement, seals, and PVD coating.
- Do not attempt to open the case back yourself. All battery replacements and servicing should be performed by qualified watchmakers to maintain warranty validity and water resistance.
- Store the watch in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not wearing it. If storing long-term, ensure the watch is clean and dry.
- Have the watch serviced every 2-3 years at a Police authorised service centre to check seals, water resistance, and movement function.
- Although PVD coating is durable, avoid impacts against hard surfaces that could scratch or mark the black finish.
- Remove the watch before engaging in contact sports, heavy manual work, or activities involving strong impacts or vibrations.
