FAQ
Q: Is this watch suitable for swimming?
A: The Swatch Pinkbaya has a water resistance of 3 bar (30 metres), which is suitable for everyday splashes, handwashing, and light rain. It is not suitable for swimming, showering, or water sports. For aquatic activities, we recommend timepieces with a minimum of 10 bar water resistance.
Q: What type of battery does this watch use and how often will it need replacing?
A: The Swatch Pinkbaya is powered by a standard Swiss quartz movement. Battery life typically ranges from 2 to 3 years depending on usage. Our service team at Cassims & Co. can replace the battery for you when needed, and we recommend having this done by authorised professionals to maintain your warranty coverage.
Q: What is the case size and will it suit a smaller wrist?
A: The Pinkbaya features a 34mm case diameter, which is considered a mid-size or unisex dimension. This makes it versatile enough to suit both smaller and medium-sized wrists comfortably. The silicone strap is adjustable and can be sized to fit wrists from approximately 14cm to 19cm in circumference. We welcome you to visit our boutique for a fitting.
Q: Is this watch covered by an official warranty?
A: Yes, when purchased from Cassims & Co. as an authorised Swatch retailer, this watch carries a 2-year international manufacturer's warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship. The warranty is activated from your date of purchase and requires the original receipt and warranty documentation.
Q: Can the silicone strap be replaced if it becomes worn?
A: Yes, Swatch silicone straps can be replaced. If your strap shows signs of wear over time, we can assist with ordering a replacement strap. Swatch straps are designed to be easily swapped, allowing you to refresh the look of your watch or even change colours if desired.
Q: What makes this watch different from fashion watches at similar price points?
A: The Swatch Pinkbaya features a genuine Swiss quartz movement, ensuring superior accuracy and reliability compared to generic fashion watch movements. Swatch's heritage of Swiss watchmaking since 1983, combined with quality control standards and international warranty support, provides significantly better long-term value and performance.
Q: How should I care for the metallified silicone strap?
A: The metallified silicone strap is durable and low-maintenance. Clean it regularly with a soft, slightly damp cloth to remove any buildup of oils or dirt. Avoid exposing it to harsh chemicals, perfumes, or solvents. When not wearing the watch, store it away from direct sunlight to preserve the colour and finish of the strap.
