The Police Eclipse PEWJK2226706 is a bold statement in contemporary watchmaking, engineered for men who demand both technical precision and urban sophistication. This 45mm quartz chronograph combines robust stainless steel construction with a striking black multi-layer dial featuring a distinctive textured pattern. The chronograph sub-dials — day-date display and 24-hour indicator — are arranged in a tri-compax layout, delivering practical functionality alongside commanding visual presence. Luminous applied hour markers and hands ensure legibility in any lighting condition, while the architectural case design and integrated bracelet create a seamless, modern aesthetic that transitions effortlessly from boardroom to weekend.
Powered by a reliable Japanese quartz movement, this Police timepiece offers accuracy within seconds per month and eliminates the need for daily winding. The 5 ATM water resistance rating provides protection against splashes and brief immersion, making it suitable for everyday wear. The pushers flanking the crown at 2 and 4 o'clock operate the chronograph functions with crisp, tactile feedback, while the brushed and polished finishing on the stainless steel bracelet demonstrates attention to detail typically reserved for higher price brackets.

FAQ
Q: Is this Police Eclipse watch suitable for swimming?
A: The 5 ATM water resistance rating makes this watch suitable for splashes, rain, and brief immersion such as handwashing, but it is not recommended for swimming, diving, or showering. The chronograph pushers should never be operated underwater as this may compromise the seal.
Q: How often will the battery need replacement?
A: Quartz watch batteries typically last 2-3 years depending on usage patterns, particularly chronograph operation. We recommend having the battery replaced by our qualified technicians at Cassim & Co. to ensure proper sealing and pressure testing after the service.
Q: What is the lug-to-lug measurement and will it fit my 17cm wrist?
A: While the exact lug-to-lug measurement is not specified, the 45mm case diameter with integrated bracelet design typically results in a lug-to-lug span of approximately 52-54mm. This should fit comfortably on a 17cm wrist. We recommend visiting our boutique for a personal fitting to ensure optimal comfort.
Q: Can the bracelet be adjusted or resized?
A: Yes, the stainless steel bracelet uses removable links that can be adjusted for a perfect fit. This service is complimentary when you purchase from Cassim & Co., and our team can perform the adjustment while you wait at our Mall of the South location.
Q: What do the chronograph sub-dials measure?
A: The Police Eclipse features a tri-compax chronograph layout with three sub-dials: a continuous seconds counter, a chronograph minutes counter, and a 24-hour indicator. The day-date display appears in one of the sub-dial positions, combining calendar functionality with stopwatch capability.
Q: Is this an automatic or manual-wind watch?
A: This is a battery-powered quartz watch, not an automatic or manual-wind mechanical movement. Quartz movements offer superior accuracy (typically within 15 seconds per month) and require no daily winding, making them ideal for everyday wear with minimal maintenance.
Q: Does the watch come in a presentation box?
A: Yes, all Police watches are supplied in the official Police presentation box with warranty documentation. The packaging includes all materials required for warranty registration and authenticity verification.

- To maintain warranty validity, any servicing or repairs must be carried out by authorised service centres. Unauthorised intervention will void the warranty.

Care Guide
- Wipe the case and bracelet regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth to remove perspiration, dirt, and oils that can dull the finish over time.
- Avoid operating the chronograph pushers when the watch is wet or submerged, as this may allow water ingress and damage the movement.
- Keep the watch away from strong magnetic fields (speakers, mobile phones, magnetic clasps) which can affect timekeeping accuracy.
- Have the battery replaced by a qualified watchmaker every 2-3 years; do not allow a depleted battery to remain in the watch as leakage may cause corrosion damage.
- When not in use for extended periods, store the watch in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight to prevent dial fading and seal degradation.
- Avoid exposing the watch to extreme temperature changes, harsh chemicals, solvents, or cosmetics which may damage seals and finishing.
- Although water-resistant to 5 ATM, we recommend removing the watch before showering, swimming, or engaging in water sports to preserve long-term seal integrity.
- Have the watch professionally pressure-tested and seals inspected every 2-3 years, particularly if you notice condensation under the crystal.
- If the crown feels loose or the pushers become difficult to operate, discontinue use and bring the watch to our service centre for inspection.
- Polish the bracelet sparingly with a jeweller's cloth to maintain the brushed and polished finishing; excessive polishing can alter the original surface treatment.
