A stainless steel case and a green dial is what the Festina F20669_2 is built around, in a generously sized case. It measures 41 mm across and 13 mm deep.
Case and Wrist Presence
The case measures 41 mm in diameter and 13 mm deep, worked in stainless steel. The surface treatment is polished. At 41 mm it lands in the range most men’s wrists take comfortably, and it will sit under a cuff.
Reading the Dial
A green dial sits behind the crystal.
Movement and Functions
A quartz movement drives the watch. That means accuracy which needs no daily attention, no winding routine, and no rate drift to correct.
- Date display – the current date at a glance
- Water resistance – 20 ATM (200 metres)
Strap, Clasp and Fit
It closes on a folding.
Water Resistance and Everyday Durability
The watch is rated to 20 ATM, or 200 metres of static pressure. In practical terms that covers rain, hand washing, showering and recreational swimming. It is not a dive watch, so leave it behind for scuba diving and keep it away from high-pressure water jets. Make sure the crown is fully seated before any contact with water.
Who This Watch Suits
- An everyday wrist size that still reads as a proper men’s watch
- Building a green-led accessory wardrobe
- Daily wear that includes rain, washing up and the occasional swim
- Gift buyers looking for something recognisable, boxed and properly warranted
Styling Notes
Green has moved from novelty to staple. It works against brown leather, cream and navy, and reads as a considered choice rather than a safe one.
Care and Maintenance
A watch at this level rewards very little maintenance, but the little it asks for makes the difference between one that still looks sharp in five years and one that does not. Have the battery replaced by a watchmaker rather than a kiosk – a proper service reseats the case gasket at the same time, which is what actually preserves the water rating. A flat battery left in the case is the single most common cause of avoidable movement damage. Rinse the case in fresh water after a swim, especially in the sea, and dry it before it goes back on.
Keep it clear of perfume and solvents, off the speaker on your desk, and out of direct sun when you take it off.
About the Brand and Ownership
Festina watches sit in the sweet spot between fashion and function: recognisable design, real build quality, and a price that does not ask you to think of the watch as an investment. Quartz keeps the running costs near zero – a battery every few years and the occasional seal check is the whole of the maintenance schedule. Kept out of direct heat, away from magnets and wiped down after a sweaty day, a watch like this will outlast several phones.
The Short Version
What you are getting is an everyday size that still has presence. It is not trying to be a heirloom piece and it does not price itself like one. It is a well-made, recognisable watch that does the job every day and looks considered doing it.

Buying With Confidence
Buying a watch online comes down to trusting the seller, so here is exactly what you get. The watch ships new and unworn in its original box with the manufacturer’s paperwork, and it is covered by the full international warranty from the date you receive it – not from the date it landed in our warehouse.

Every Festina watch we list is sourced new and unworn through authorised distribution and arrives in its original presentation box with the manufacturer’s documentation. This reference carries a 24-month international manufacturer warranty covering the movement, excluding the battery and normal wear to the finish and strap. Delivered anywhere in South Africa.
The green dial is the thing people will comment on. If that is the watch you are after, this is the reference to reach for.
