The Fossil ES5485 is built around a stainless steel case. Case and Wrist Presence \n The case is worked in stainless steel. The surface treatment is polished. \n Movement and Functions \n A quartz movement drives the watch. That means accuracy which needs no daily attention, no winding routine, and no rate drift to correct. \n \n Mineral crystal – protecting the dial \n \n Water Resistance and Everyday Durability \n A mineral crystal protects the dial – harder than acrylic and more shatter-resistant than sapphire, which is a sensible trade-off on a case this size. \n Care and Maintenance \n 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. Keep it clear of perfume and solvents, off the speaker on your desk, and out of direct sun when you take it off. \n About the Brand and Ownership \n Fossil 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. \n Technical Specifications \n \n Attribute Specification \n Brand Fossil \n Model / Reference ES5485 \n EAN 4064092388459 \n Case Material Stainless steel \n Case Finish Polished \n Crystal Mineral \n Movement Quartz \n \n Buying With Confidence \n Buying a watch online comes down to trusting the seller, so here is exactly what you get.
