Description
The Police Tasman PL16023JS03A is a refined expression of contemporary urban design, merging minimalist aesthetics with exceptional wearability. This quartz timepiece features a distinctive blue sunray dial with vertical striping, creating a subtle play of light that shifts with movement. Gold-toned baton hour markers and matching hands provide elegant contrast against the deep blue face, while the slim stainless steel case—measuring 42mm in diameter—ensures a versatile profile suitable for both professional and casual settings.
Powered by a reliable PC21 quartz movement, this watch delivers precision timekeeping without the maintenance demands of mechanical calibres. The three-hand configuration—hours, minutes, and seconds—offers clean legibility, whilst the supple black leather strap with pin buckle closure ensures all-day comfort. With 3 ATM water resistance, the Tasman is splash-resistant for everyday wear, though not suitable for swimming or submersion.
At Cassims & Co., we are proud to be an authorised retailer of POLICE watches, ensuring every timepiece comes with full manufacturer warranty and after-sales support. Whether you're seeking a versatile daily wearer or a statement piece that bridges smart-casual and formal occasions, the Police Tasman delivers understated sophistication with Italian design heritage.

Warranty
- This Police watch is covered by a 2-year international manufacturer 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, scratches or cosmetic damage to the case, crystal, or strap; battery replacement; water damage resulting from misuse or failure to observe water resistance limitations; damage caused by accidents, impacts, or improper handling; unauthorised modifications, repairs, or servicing; or damage from magnetic fields or extreme temperatures.
- To make a warranty claim, please present your original proof of purchase and contact Cassims & Co. for assistance.
- Warranty service must be performed by authorised Police service centres to maintain coverage.
- The warranty does not affect your statutory rights under South African consumer protection law.
Care guide
- Wipe the case and crystal regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth to remove fingerprints, dust, and moisture.
- Avoid exposing the watch to extreme temperatures, direct sunlight for prolonged periods, or magnetic fields which may affect timekeeping accuracy.
- Do not operate the crown when the watch is wet or submerged, as this may compromise water resistance.
- Keep leather straps dry. Remove the watch before swimming, showering, or exercising to prevent moisture damage and premature wear.
- Condition leather straps periodically with a suitable leather conditioner to maintain suppleness and prevent cracking.
- Store the watch in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. A watch box or pouch is recommended.
- Have the battery replaced by an authorised service centre when the seconds hand begins jumping or the watch stops. Do not leave a depleted battery in the watch, as leakage may cause internal damage.
- Avoid impact, dropping, or knocking the watch against hard surfaces, as this may damage the movement or crystal.
- Do not attempt to open the case back yourself, as this will void the warranty and may compromise water resistance.
- For professional servicing, battery replacement, or strap adjustments, contact Cassims & Co. or an authorised Police service centre.
