FAQ
Q: Is the Victorinox FieldForce Sport Chrono 241891 suitable for swimming?
A: Yes, with 100 metres of water resistance, this watch is suitable for swimming, showering, and recreational water activities. However, it is not designed for diving or high-impact water sports. The chronograph pushers should not be operated underwater.
Q: How accurate is the Swiss quartz movement?
A: Swiss quartz movements are exceptionally accurate, typically gaining or losing only a few seconds per month. This is significantly more precise than most mechanical movements, making the FieldForce Sport Chrono an ideal choice for those who require reliable timekeeping.
Q: What is the battery life, and where can I get it replaced?
A: Quartz watch batteries typically last 2-3 years depending on usage of the chronograph functions. Cassim & Co. offers battery replacement services at our Mall of the South location, ensuring your watch is handled by professionals familiar with Victorinox timepieces.
Q: What is the tachymeter scale used for?
A: The tachymeter scale on the bezel allows you to calculate speed over a known distance. Start the chronograph at a distance marker and stop it at the next marker (e.g., kilometre posts). The chronograph hand will point to your speed in kilometres per hour on the tachymeter scale.
Q: Can I wear this watch with formal attire?
A: While the FieldForce Sport Chrono has a sporty, tactical character, its 42mm case and anthracite finish make it versatile enough for smart-casual wear. For formal black-tie occasions, a dressier timepiece may be more appropriate, but this watch transitions well from office to weekend activities.
Q: Is the rubber strap comfortable for all-day wear?
A: Yes, the black rubber strap features ventilation slots designed to improve airflow and reduce perspiration buildup. The flexible rubber material conforms to your wrist and is highly durable, making it comfortable for extended wear in various conditions.
Q: Does this watch come with the full Victorinox warranty when purchased from Cassim & Co.?
A: Absolutely. As an authorised Victorinox retailer, every FieldForce Sport Chrono purchased from Cassim & Co. includes the full 2-year international manufacturer warranty, complete with warranty card and documentation.
Warranty
- Warranty Coverage: This Victorinox FieldForce Sport Chrono carries a 2-year international manufacturer warranty from the date of purchase when purchased from an authorised retailer such as Cassim & Co.

- What Is Not Covered: The warranty does not cover normal wear and tear, battery replacement, damage to the strap or bracelet, accidental damage, water damage resulting from misuse or failure to maintain water resistance, unauthorised modifications, or servicing performed by non-authorised personnel.
- Water Resistance: Water resistance is not a permanent condition and can be affected by ageing gaskets, accidental impact, or operating the pushers underwater. Water damage caused by misuse is not covered under warranty.

Care Guide
- Regular Cleaning: Wipe the case and rubber strap with a soft, damp cloth after exposure to sweat, saltwater, or chemicals. The rubber strap can be gently cleaned with mild soap and water, then dried thoroughly.
- Water Resistance Maintenance: Have the water resistance tested annually, especially if you frequently expose the watch to water. Gaskets and seals can degrade over time and require periodic replacement.
- Avoid Chemical Exposure: Keep your watch away from solvents, detergents, perfumes, cosmetics, and harsh chemicals, which can damage the rubber strap, case coating, and seals.
- Chronograph Care: Do not operate the chronograph pushers while the watch is wet or underwater, as this can compromise water resistance and damage the movement.
- Storage: When not wearing your watch, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and magnetic fields. A watch box or pouch is ideal for protecting the crystal and case from scratches.
- Battery Replacement: When the battery requires replacement, bring your watch to an authorised service centre such as Cassim & Co. Professional battery replacement ensures gaskets are properly resealed and water resistance is maintained.
- Sapphire Crystal Care: While sapphire crystal is highly scratch-resistant, it can still be damaged by extreme impact. Avoid dropping your watch or striking it against hard surfaces.
- Strap Replacement: Rubber straps are durable but will show wear over time. We can supply genuine Victorinox replacement straps to keep your watch looking fresh.
