FAQ
Q: What does I.N.O.X. stand for and what makes this collection special?
A: I.N.O.X. is derived from the French term for stainless steel ("inoxydable"). The I.N.O.X. collection is legendary for its extreme durability—each watch undergoes over 130 homologation tests including drops from 10 metres, exposure to temperature extremes, and immersion tests. This collection is engineered for maximum resilience whilst maintaining Swiss precision and distinctive design.
Q: Can the paracord strap really be used in emergency situations?
A: Yes, the paracord strap is made from genuine military-grade paracord that can be unravelled to provide approximately 3.5 metres of strong cordage in survival or emergency situations. Once used, replacement paracord straps are available for purchase. This functional feature makes the I.N.O.X. V a genuine tool watch with practical outdoor utility.
Q: Is this watch suitable for swimming and water sports?
A: With 100 metres (10 ATM) of water resistance and a screw-down crown, the I.N.O.X. V 241918 is suitable for swimming, snorkelling, and recreational water sports. However, it is not rated for scuba diving or high-impact water activities. Always ensure the crown is fully screwed down before water exposure.
Q: What is the expected battery life for the quartz movement?
A: Swiss quartz movements typically provide 2-3 years of battery life under normal usage conditions. When your watch requires a battery replacement, visit Cassims & Co. at our Mall of the South boutique where our watchmakers can replace the battery and pressure-test the case to maintain water resistance integrity.
Q: Is the 37mm case size appropriate for smaller wrists?
A: The 37mm case diameter is specifically designed for women's wrists and represents an ideal balance between presence and wearability. The integrated paracord strap and protective case shoulders do add visual weight, giving the watch a sporty, substantial appearance. We recommend visiting our boutique to try the watch on for the perfect fit assessment.
Q: Does this model come with the original Victorinox presentation box?
A: Yes, the I.N.O.X. V 241918 is supplied in the original Victorinox presentation box with all accompanying documentation, including the international warranty card, instruction manual, and authenticity certificates. As an authorised Victorinox retailer, Cassims & Co. guarantees 100% genuine Swiss timepieces with full manufacturer support.
Q: Can I have the paracord strap replaced with a different style?
A: Yes, whilst the paracord strap is a signature feature of this model, Victorinox offers alternative strap options including rubber and textile NATO-style straps that are compatible with the I.N.O.X. V case. Our team can advise on available options and assist with strap changes at our Mall of the South location.

- Warranty Coverage: The warranty covers manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship under normal use conditions. This includes movement malfunctions and case integrity issues that arise from factory defects.
- Warranty Exclusions: The warranty does not cover normal wear and tear, battery replacement, strap or bracelet wear, scratches to the case or crystal, accidental damage, water damage resulting from improper use (such as operating the crown underwater or failure to screw down the crown), unauthorised repairs or modifications, or damage from extreme conditions beyond normal use.
- Authorised Retailer Guarantee: Cassims & Co. is an authorised Victorinox retailer. Purchasing from an authorised dealer ensures your warranty is valid and you receive genuine Swiss-made products with full manufacturer support.
- Warranty Claims: Should you require warranty service, bring your watch along with the original warranty card and proof of purchase to Cassims & Co. at our Mall of the South boutique. We will facilitate the warranty claim process with Victorinox on your behalf.

Care Guide
- Daily Wear: Avoid exposing your I.N.O.X. V to extreme temperature fluctuations, strong magnetic fields, and direct impacts despite its robust construction.
- Water Resistance: Always ensure the crown is fully screwed down before any water exposure. Rinse with fresh water after contact with chlorinated or salt water, then dry thoroughly with a soft cloth.
- Paracord Strap Care: Clean the paracord strap regularly with lukewarm water and mild soap using a soft brush. Allow to air dry completely. The paracord may show natural wear patterns over time, which adds character to the tactical aesthetic.
- Crystal Protection: Whilst mineral crystal is scratch-resistant, avoid contact with abrasive surfaces, diamonds, and other materials harder than mineral glass.
- Crown Operation: When adjusting the time, unscrew the crown gently, pull to the time-setting position, adjust, then push in and screw down clockwise until snug. Never force the crown.
- Battery Replacement: When the watch stops or the seconds hand begins jumping in multi-second intervals, the battery requires replacement. Have this serviced by an authorised Victorinox service centre or visit Cassims & Co. to ensure proper battery installation and water resistance testing.
- Storage: When not wearing your watch, store it in the original Victorinox box or a watch case away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and magnetic sources.
- Service Intervals: For quartz watches, we recommend a complete service check every 4-5 years to inspect gaskets, movement health, and water resistance seals.
- Case Cleaning: Wipe the stainless steel case with a soft, lint-free cloth. For deeper cleaning, use lukewarm water and mild soap, then dry completely.
