A stainless steel case and a black dial is what the Festina F20745_4 is built around, in a compact case. It measures 26 mm across and 6 mm deep.
Case and Wrist Presence
The case measures 26 mm in diameter and 6 mm deep, worked in stainless steel. The surface treatment is polished. At 26 mm this is a compact, elegant case that wears close to the wrist.
Reading the Dial
A black dial sits behind the crystal.
Strap, Clasp and Fit
The bracelet is stainless steel. Links can be removed by any competent jeweller or watchmaker for a precise fit.
Water Resistance and Everyday Durability
The watch is rated to 5 ATM, or 50 metres of static pressure. That covers rain, hand washing and a swim, but not diving or high-pressure water. Make sure the crown is fully seated before any contact with water.
A sapphire crystal protects the dial – the most scratch-resistant option short of diamond, and the reason the dial still looks new after years of wear.
Who This Watch Suits
- A smaller wrist, or anyone who prefers a watch that sits discreetly
- Building a black-led accessory wardrobe
- Gift buyers looking for something recognisable, boxed and properly warranted
Styling Notes
Black is the easiest colour to place. It disappears into formal dressing and sharpens casual dressing, and it never fights whatever else you are wearing.
Care and Maintenance
None of the care below is onerous. It is the difference between a watch that ages well and one that simply gets old. A bracelet collects more than people expect. A soft toothbrush, warm water and a drop of dish soap along the links once a season keeps it looking new. Store it away from magnets and out of direct heat, and it will hold its rate and its finish.
About the Brand and Ownership
The appeal of a Festina is that it is unmistakable. You are buying a design point of view rather than an anonymous case with a dial in it. 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 a case that wears close and stays out of the way, a bracelet that gives it weight on the wrist. 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. Delivery is countrywide, tracked from the moment it leaves us.
Under the Consumer Protection Act you have the right to return an unworn watch in its original packaging, and a manufacturing defect inside the warranty period is repaired or replaced at no cost to you.
Authenticity, Warranty and Delivery
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 black dial is the thing people will comment on. If it sounds like the right fit, it is in stock and ready to ship.
