The Victorinox Alliance Set pairs Swiss precision with everyday practicality, combining a refined 40mm timepiece with a matching Swiss Army Knife. This distinctive set showcases a stunning graduated blue dial that transitions from deep navy at the outer edge to a lighter centre, creating a sunburst effect beneath anti-reflective sapphire crystal. The brushed stainless steel case and integrated bracelet deliver versatile style suitable for boardroom or weekend wear, whilst the reliable Swiss quartz movement ensures accurate timekeeping without compromise.
As an authorised retailer of VICTORINOX watches, Cassims & Co. is proud to offer this complete Alliance Set with full manufacturer support and authenticity. The 10 ATM water resistance rating means this watch handles daily moisture exposure with confidence, whilst the date window at 3 o'clock provides essential functionality. The accompanying Swiss Army Knife features blue Alox scales that mirror the dial colour, creating a coordinated accessory pairing that reflects Victorinox's heritage of Swiss craftsmanship.
The Alliance collection represents Victorinox's commitment to accessible luxury, delivering Swiss-made quality at an attainable price point. The 20mm lug width accepts standard straps for personalisation, and the push-pull crown ensures straightforward operation.

Q: Is this watch suitable for swimming?
A: Yes, the 10 ATM (100 metres) water resistance rating makes this Alliance watch suitable for swimming, showering, and recreational water activities. It is not suitable for diving or high-impact water sports. Always ensure the crown is fully pushed in before water exposure.
Q: How often does the quartz movement require battery replacement?

Care Guide
- Rinse the watch with fresh water after exposure to saltwater, chlorine, or chemicals to prevent corrosion and maintain bracelet finish.
- Ensure the crown is fully pushed in (not pulled out) before any water exposure to maintain the 10 ATM water resistance rating.
- Avoid operating the crown or pushers whilst the watch is wet or submerged, as this can compromise water resistance seals.
- Clean the stainless steel case and bracelet regularly using a soft, lint-free cloth. For deeper cleaning, use warm soapy water and a soft brush, then dry thoroughly.
- Have the water resistance gaskets inspected every 2-3 years during battery replacement to ensure continued water protection.
- Store your Victorinox Alliance in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not being worn to preserve dial colour and movement longevity.
- Avoid exposing the watch to strong magnetic fields (speakers, mobile phones, magnetic clasps) as this can affect quartz movement accuracy.
- Remove the watch before engaging in high-impact activities or contact sports to prevent case or crystal damage.
- Polish minor scratches on the brushed stainless steel using a professional watch polishing service to maintain factory finish direction.
- Keep the Swiss Army Knife scales clean and dry; avoid dishwasher cleaning as high heat can damage the Alox finish.
- Service the quartz movement every 4-5 years with a complete overhaul including seal replacement, cleaning, and lubrication to ensure optimal performance.
- Replace the battery only through authorised Victorinox service centres or Cassims & Co. to maintain warranty validity and water resistance integrity.
