A stainless steel case is what the Guess GW0696L4 is built around, in a mid-sized case. It measures 38 mm across. Case and Wrist Presence \n Case diameter is 38 mm, worked in stainless steel. The surface treatment is polished. At 38 mm this is a mid-sized case that reads as unisex, and it wears easily on most wrists. \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 Care and Maintenance \n None of the care below is onerous. It is the difference between a watch that ages well and one that simply gets old. 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 Guess 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. Basic care goes a long way – keep it clear of solvents and perfume, rinse the strap if it has been in salt water, and store it somewhere dry. \n The Short Version \n What you are getting is a case that wears close and stays out of the way. 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. \n Technical Specifications \n \n Attribute Specification \n Brand Guess \n Model / Reference GW0696L4 \n Gender Unisex (38 mm case) \n EAN 0091661614569 \n Case Diameter 38 mm \n Case Material Stainless steel \n Case Finish Polished \n Movement Quartz \n Warranty 24 months \n \n Buying With Confidence \n Buying a watch online comes down to trusting the seller, so here is exactly what you get.
