The Police Leptis PEWJQ2003540 is a commanding statement of bold horological design, engineered for the discerning wearer who values both visual impact and technical precision. This substantial 47mm chronograph showcases a skeletonised dial construction that reveals the intricate inner workings of its quartz movement, whilst rose gold-tone stainless steel case accents create a striking contrast against the black ion-plated bezel and robust silicone strap embossed with the Police insignia.
The architectural dial features dual sub-dials, applied rose gold indices with red accents, and luminous hands for enhanced legibility. A date aperture at 4 o'clock completes the functional layout, whilst the transparent dial construction offers a technical aesthetic rarely seen at this price point. Water-resistant to 10 bar (100 metres), this timepiece transitions seamlessly from urban environments to more demanding conditions, making it an exceptionally versatile addition to any collection.

FAQ
Q: What is the case size of the Police Leptis PEWJQ2003540?
A: The Leptis features a substantial 47mm case diameter with a thickness of 12mm, making it ideal for those who prefer a bold, statement-making wrist presence. This generous sizing ensures excellent dial legibility and visual impact.
Q: Is this watch suitable for swimming or water sports?
A: With 10 bar (100 metres) water resistance, the Leptis is suitable for swimming and snorkelling. However, we recommend avoiding operating the chronograph pushers whilst underwater, and it should not be used for diving activities.
Q: What type of movement powers this chronograph?
A: The Leptis utilises a precision quartz movement, offering exceptional accuracy and low maintenance requirements. Quartz movements typically require battery replacement every 2-3 years, which our service team can perform at our Mall of the South boutique.
Q: Can I see the movement through the skeletonised dial?
A: Whilst the dial features a skeletonised aesthetic with transparent elements and visible sub-dial mechanics, this is a design treatment rather than a true mechanical skeleton. The quartz movement itself is housed beneath, with the dial architecture creating visual depth and technical appeal.
Q: Is the rose gold plating durable?
A: The rose gold-tone plating on the stainless steel case is applied using PVD (Physical Vapour Deposition) or ion-plating techniques for enhanced durability. With proper care—avoiding harsh chemicals and abrasive surfaces—the finish will maintain its lustre for many years.
Q: How do I adjust the silicone strap for my wrist size?
A: The silicone strap features a traditional pin buckle closure with multiple adjustment holes. Our team at Cassims & Co. can assist with sizing at the time of purchase to ensure optimal comfort and fit.
Q: Does this watch come with an international warranty?
A: Yes, the Police Leptis PEWJQ2003540 includes a 2-year international manufacturer's warranty when purchased from authorised retailers such as Cassims & Co. This warranty covers manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship.

Care Guide
- Battery Replacement: Replace the battery every 2-3 years with an authorised service centre to maintain water resistance seals and movement integrity.
- Water Resistance Maintenance: Have gaskets and seals inspected annually, particularly if the watch is regularly exposed to water. Never operate chronograph pushers or crown whilst submerged.
- Cleaning: Wipe the case and silicone strap with a soft, slightly damp cloth after exposure to sweat, chlorine, or saltwater. Avoid harsh chemicals or solvents that may damage the plating.
- Strap Care: The silicone strap is resilient but should be rinsed with fresh water after beach or pool use. Allow to air dry completely before wearing again.
- Storage: When not in use, store your Police Leptis in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight, magnetic fields, and extreme temperatures.
- Impact Protection: Whilst quartz movements are robust, avoid subjecting your watch to severe impacts or shocks that could damage internal components or the crystal.
- Rose Gold Plating: To preserve the rose gold-tone finish, avoid contact with perfumes, cosmetics, and cleaning agents. Remove your watch during activities that may cause abrasion.
- Professional Servicing: We recommend professional servicing every 3-4 years to ensure optimal performance, including movement inspection, gasket replacement, and case refinishing if required.
