Description
The Police Tropea is a refined expression of contemporary femininity, combining Italian design sensibilities with precise quartz timekeeping. This timepiece features a lustrous white mother-of-pearl dial adorned with crystal indexes and a delicate coin-edge bezel, all housed within a 34mm round case crafted from gold-plated stainless steel. The matching three-link bracelet delivers both elegance and everyday wearability, making this an ideal companion for the modern South African woman who values style and substance in equal measure.
At Cassims & Co., we are proud authorised retailers of Police timepieces, offering our clients access to genuine Swiss-designed watches backed by full international warranty protection. The Tropea collection epitomises Police's commitment to accessible luxury, delivering premium materials and meticulous construction at an exceptional price point. The mother-of-pearl dial shifts subtly in changing light, creating a dynamic visual effect that elevates this piece beyond ordinary fashion watches.
Powered by a reliable Japanese quartz movement, the Tropea offers maintenance-free accuracy and a slimline profile that sits comfortably on the wrist. The water resistance rating of 3 ATM (30 metres) provides protection against everyday splashes and rain, though we recommend removing the watch before swimming or showering. Whether you're browsing our full range of POLICE watches or seeking a versatile timepiece that transitions seamlessly from boardroom to evening event, the Tropea delivers understated sophistication.
This watch arrives presentation-ready in its original Police packaging, complete with all manufacturer documentation and a 2-year international warranty. Our expert team at our Mall of the South boutique is available to assist with bracelet sizing and can provide guidance on selecting the perfect timepiece for your collection. For ongoing care and maintenance, our watch servicing and repairs department offers battery replacements, professional cleaning, and bracelet adjustments to ensure your Police Tropea continues to perform beautifully for years to come.

FAQ
Q: Is this Police Tropea watch suitable for daily wear?
A: Absolutely. The Tropea is designed as an everyday luxury timepiece, combining a durable gold-plated stainless steel construction with a scratch-resistant mineral crystal. The quartz movement requires no winding and delivers reliable accuracy, while the 3 ATM water resistance protects against everyday splashes and light rain. The compact 34mm case size is ideally proportioned for feminine wrists and slides comfortably under shirt cuffs.
Q: Can I wear this watch while washing my hands or in the shower?
A: While the 3 ATM (30 metre) water resistance rating provides protection against hand washing and rain exposure, we recommend removing the watch before showering, bathing, or swimming. Hot water, soap, and prolonged submersion can compromise the seals over time and may affect the gold plating. For aquatic activities, consider a watch with a minimum 10 ATM rating.
Q: How often will I need to replace the battery?
A: Quartz watch batteries typically last between 2 to 3 years depending on usage patterns. When your Police Tropea requires a battery replacement, bring it to our Johannesburg showrooms where our trained technicians can replace the battery using proper tools and pressure-testing equipment. This service ensures your watch maintains its water resistance integrity and warranty coverage.
Q: Is the gold finish prone to wearing off?
A: The gold-plated stainless steel case and bracelet feature a durable PVD or electroplated finish designed to resist everyday wear. However, all plated surfaces will show some natural wear over time, particularly on high-contact areas like the bracelet clasp. To maximise longevity, we recommend removing the watch during vigorous physical activities, avoiding contact with harsh chemicals, and storing it separately from other jewellery to prevent scratching.
Q: Can the bracelet be adjusted to fit my wrist?
A: Yes, the three-link stainless steel bracelet can be professionally sized by removing or adding links. Visit our Mall of the South location where our team will adjust the bracelet to your exact wrist size at no additional charge with your purchase. We can also advise on optimal fit—the watch should sit snugly without being uncomfortably tight, allowing one finger to slide beneath the bracelet.
Q: What does the mother-of-pearl dial look like in different lighting?
A: Mother-of-pearl is a natural organic material prized for its iridescent qualities. The white mother-of-pearl dial on the Tropea displays subtle colour shifts ranging from soft cream to pale pink and blue depending on viewing angle and ambient lighting. This creates a dynamic, luxurious appearance that makes each dial unique. The effect is most pronounced in natural daylight and adds considerable visual depth compared to standard painted dials.
Q: Does this watch come with the original Police warranty?
A: Yes, when purchased from Cassims & Co. as an authorised Police retailer, this Tropea watch includes the full 2-year international manufacturer warranty. This covers defects in materials and workmanship from the date of purchase. Your warranty card will be stamped and dated at the time of sale. The warranty does not cover battery replacements, normal wear and tear, or damage resulting from misuse.
Warranty

- What Is Not Covered: The warranty does not cover battery replacement, normal wear and tear, scratches or cosmetic damage to the case, crystal or bracelet, damage resulting from accidents, misuse, or improper handling, water damage caused by improper use or failure to ensure the crown is correctly positioned, damage from unauthorised repairs or modifications, or loss or theft of the watch.
- Warranty Validation: The warranty is valid only when the watch is purchased from an authorised Police retailer such as Cassims & Co. Your warranty card must be completed, stamped, and dated at the time of purchase. Retain your proof of purchase.

Care guide
- Daily Care: Wipe the case and bracelet with a soft, lint-free cloth after wearing to remove perspiration, oils, and environmental residue that can dull the gold finish over time.
- Cleaning: Clean the bracelet periodically using lukewarm water, mild soap, and a soft brush. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely with a soft cloth. Ensure the crown is pushed fully in before any water contact.
- Water Exposure: Remove the watch before showering, swimming, or engaging in water sports. The 3 ATM rating is suitable for splash resistance only, not submersion.
- Chemical Protection: Avoid exposing the watch to perfumes, cosmetics, cleaning products, and chlorinated water, all of which can damage the gold plating and compromise the seals.
- Crown Care: Ensure the crown is always pushed completely in to maintain water resistance. Never operate the crown while the watch is wet or submerged.
- Storage: When not being worn, store your Police Tropea in its original box or a dedicated watch case away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and magnetic fields. Store separately from other jewellery to prevent scratches.
- Impact Protection: While the mineral crystal is scratch-resistant, avoid impacts against hard surfaces. Remove the watch during activities that involve potential shock or vibration, such as contact sports or heavy manual work.
- Professional Servicing: Have your watch inspected every 2-3 years by an authorised service centre. This includes battery replacement, seal inspection, and water resistance testing to ensure optimal performance.
- Bracelet Maintenance: Periodically check that all bracelet links and screws are secure. If you notice any looseness or movement, visit our boutique for adjustment before links are lost.
- Magnetic Fields: Keep your watch away from strong magnetic sources such as speakers, mobile phones, laptop computers, and magnetic clasps, which can affect timekeeping accuracy.
