FAQ
Q: What type of movement powers the Police Horizon watch?
A: The Police Horizon is powered by the Miyota VX50 quartz movement, a reliable Japanese-manufactured calibre known for accurate timekeeping and minimal maintenance requirements. Quartz movements offer exceptional precision and typically require only a battery replacement every 2-3 years.
Q: Is this watch suitable for swimming or water sports?
A: With a water resistance rating of 3 ATM (30 metres), the Police Horizon can withstand splashes, rain, and brief immersion such as handwashing. However, it is not suitable for swimming, showering, or any water sports. The 3 ATM rating is designed for everyday water contact only.
Q: What is the gunmetal ion plating, and is it durable?
A: Ion plating (IP) is an advanced surface treatment that bonds a layer of gunmetal-coloured material to the stainless steel substrate. This process creates a harder, more durable finish than traditional plating methods. The IP Gun finish is resistant to scratching and wear, though we recommend avoiding harsh chemicals and abrasive surfaces to maintain its appearance.
Q: Can the bracelet be adjusted to fit my wrist?
A: Yes, the solid-link bracelet can be professionally sized to fit your wrist. Visit us at our Mall of the South boutique for complimentary bracelet adjustment at the time of purchase, or contact us for sizing services. Additional links can be removed or reinstalled as needed by our trained staff.
Q: Does this watch have a date display?
A: No, the Police Horizon features a pure 2-hand design with only hour and minute hands. This minimalist approach eliminates the date complication, creating an uncluttered dial aesthetic that emphasises the watch's contemporary design philosophy.
Q: What is included with the watch when I purchase it?
A: Your Police Horizon arrives in official POLICE branded packaging and includes the manufacturer's international warranty card, instruction manual, and all necessary documentation. As an authorised retailer, we ensure every timepiece comes with complete accessories and full warranty coverage.
Q: How often does the battery need to be replaced?
A: The VX50 quartz movement typically provides 2-3 years of continuous operation on a single battery, depending on usage conditions. When battery replacement is needed, our watch servicing team can professionally replace the battery whilst checking the watch's water resistance seals to maintain its integrity.
Warranty
- Warranty Period: This Police Horizon watch is covered by a 2-year international manufacturer's warranty from the date of purchase.
- Warranty Coverage: The warranty covers manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship under normal use conditions.
- Authorised Retailer: This warranty is valid only when the watch is purchased from an authorised POLICE retailer such as Cassims & Co.
- What Is Covered: Defects in the case, dial, hands, crown, movement, and bracelet that arise from faulty materials or manufacturing errors.
- What Is Not Covered: Normal wear and tear, scratches, battery replacement, damage from accidents or misuse, water damage resulting from improper use or failure to observe water resistance limitations, unauthorised modifications or repairs, and damage from extreme conditions.
- Warranty Claim Process: To make a warranty claim, present your watch along with the original warranty card and proof of purchase to Cassims & Co. or any authorised POLICE service centre.
- Battery Replacement: Battery replacement is considered a normal maintenance service and is not covered under warranty. Cassims & Co. offers professional battery replacement services at competitive rates.
- Water Resistance: Water resistance is not a permanent condition and may diminish over time due to ageing of gaskets. We recommend having water resistance tested annually, especially before exposure to water.
Care Guide
- Daily Wear: Avoid exposing the watch to harsh chemicals, solvents, perfumes, and cosmetics, which may damage the ion plating and seals.
- Water Exposure: Although water-resistant to 3 ATM, do not operate the crown whilst the watch is wet or submerged. Rinse with fresh water after exposure to saltwater or chlorinated water, then dry thoroughly.
- Cleaning: Clean the case and bracelet regularly using a soft, lint-free cloth slightly dampened with water. For more thorough cleaning, use a soft brush with mild soap solution, rinse carefully, and dry completely.
- Storage: When not wearing your watch, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, strong magnetic fields, and extreme temperatures. The original box provides ideal protection.
- Magnetic Fields: Avoid prolonged exposure to strong magnetic sources such as speakers, mobile phones, magnetic clasps, and electronic devices, as these may affect timekeeping accuracy.
- Impact Protection: Although constructed from durable materials, the watch should be removed during high-impact activities, sports, or manual labour to prevent damage to the case, crystal, or movement.
- Servicing: For battery replacement, we recommend using authorised service centres to ensure water resistance is properly tested and maintained. Cassims & Co. offers professional battery replacement and watch servicing to keep your timepiece performing optimally.
- Ion Plating Care: The gunmetal IP finish is durable but not indestructible. Avoid contact with abrasive surfaces and store separately from other jewellery to prevent scratching. With proper care, the finish will maintain its appearance for many years.
