FAQ
Q: Is the Police Daintree 2.0 an automatic or quartz watch?
A: The Daintree 2.0 is powered by a Japanese Miyota 2035 quartz movement, which provides exceptional accuracy and reliability with minimal maintenance. Despite being quartz, the skeletonised dial design allows you to appreciate the movement's inner workings, offering mechanical visual interest without the winding requirements of an automatic calibre.
Q: What is the case size of the Daintree 2.0?
A: The Daintree 2.0 features a distinctive tonneau-shaped case measuring 46×53mm, creating a substantial wrist presence suitable for modern men's watch sizing. The unique barrel-shaped geometry wears comfortably despite the generous dimensions, distributing weight evenly across the wrist.
Q: Is this watch water-resistant?
A: Whilst the Daintree 2.0 incorporates water-resistant construction to protect against everyday moisture exposure such as handwashing and rain, the specific water resistance rating has not been confirmed by the manufacturer. We recommend avoiding submersion and removing the watch before swimming or showering to preserve the movement and case integrity.
Q: How comfortable is the rubber strap for daily wear?
A: The black silicone rubber strap is specifically engineered for all-day comfort, featuring a textured surface that allows breathability and prevents moisture accumulation. Silicone straps are hypoallergenic, resistant to UV degradation, and maintain their suppleness in both hot and cold conditions, making them ideal for Johannesburg's climate.
Q: Can I replace the battery myself or should I bring it to Cassim & Co.?
A: We strongly recommend having battery replacements performed by our qualified watchmakers at our Mall of the South boutique. Professional battery service ensures correct cell installation, case resealing, and a pressure test to maintain water resistance. DIY battery replacement risks damaging the movement or compromising the case seal, potentially voiding your warranty.
Q: What makes the skeletonised dial unique?
A: The Daintree 2.0's multi-layer skeletonised architecture removes material from the dial and movement plates to reveal the intricate gear trains, balance wheel, and mechanical components beneath. This three-dimensional construction creates visual depth and horological theatre, transforming a functional timepiece into wearable mechanical art that showcases the movement's inner workings.
Q: Is this watch suitable for formal occasions or is it purely casual?
A: The Daintree 2.0's bold gold-tone case and industrial skeletonised aesthetic position it as a statement piece best suited to smart-casual and contemporary styling. Whilst the gold finish elevates the design beyond purely sporty territory, the oversized case and rubber strap lean toward modern lifestyle wear rather than traditional formal attire. It pairs exceptionally well with tailored separates, premium denim, and confident personal style.

Care Guide
- Store your Police watch in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight when not being worn to prevent UV degradation of the rubber strap and dial components.
- Clean the gold-tone stainless steel case regularly with a soft, lint-free microfibre cloth to remove fingerprints, perspiration, and environmental contaminants that can dull the finish.
- Clean the silicone rubber strap periodically with lukewarm water and mild soap, using a soft brush to remove accumulated dirt from textured surfaces. Rinse thoroughly and pat dry with a clean cloth.
- Avoid exposing the watch to extreme temperatures, strong magnetic fields, chemicals, solvents, or perfumes, which can affect movement accuracy and damage case finishes.
- Have the battery replaced by a qualified watchmaker when the seconds hand begins jumping in multi-second intervals or the watch stops. Prompt replacement prevents potential battery leakage that can damage the movement.
- If your watch features water resistance, have the case seals inspected and pressure-tested during each battery replacement to maintain protective integrity.
- Avoid impact and shock to the case and crystal, as the skeletonised construction features delicate movement components visible through the dial openings.
- Do not attempt to open the case back yourself, as this risks damaging the movement, contaminating internal components with dust or moisture, and voiding your manufacturer warranty.
- Have your Police watch professionally serviced every 3-4 years to ensure optimal performance, accurate timekeeping, and longevity of all mechanical and aesthetic components.
