FAQs

How do I set the time and date on my Fossil Scarlette ES5259 watch?

To set the time, pull the crown out to its outermost position and turn it to adjust the hands. Push it back in when done. To set the date, pull the crown out to the first click and turn it. Avoid setting the date between 9 PM and 3 AM. Push the crown back in completely after setting both.

What does '5 ATM Water Resistancy' mean for this watch?

5 ATM (Atmospheres) means the watch can withstand water pressure equivalent to 50 meters. This makes it suitable for showering, bathing, and swimming in shallow water. However, it is not recommended for diving, snorkeling, or high-impact water sports. Do not operate the crown or buttons when the watch is wet.

What kind of battery does this watch use, and how often should it be replaced?

The Fossil Scarlette ES5259 uses a standard watch battery for its Quartz movement. Battery life typically ranges from 2 to 3 years. When the watch stops, or the second hand starts to skip (an end-of-life indicator on some quartz movements), it's time for a replacement. Always use a professional watchmaker to ensure the case is properly sealed to maintain water resistance.

How should I clean the two-tone stainless steel bracelet?

For routine cleaning, wipe the bracelet with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth. For deeper cleaning, you can use a slightly damp cloth with mild soap, but ensure to dry the bracelet thoroughly afterwards. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, which can damage the finish.

Is the watch crystal durable against scratches?

Yes, the watch features a mineral crystal, which is more scratch-resistant than acrylic but less so than sapphire. While it offers good protection for everyday wear, it is still advisable to avoid direct contact with abrasive surfaces to maintain its clarity.

What is the warranty period for the Fossil Scarlette ES5259?

The Fossil Scarlette ES5259 comes with a 2-year manufacturer's warranty, covering defects in materials and workmanship under normal use. Please refer to your warranty card or Fossil's official website for full terms and conditions.

Troubleshooting

Watch is not running or has stopped.

First, check if the crown is pushed in completely. If it is, the battery may need replacement. Contact an authorized service center for battery replacement and re-sealing.

Date changes at noon instead of midnight.

This indicates the watch's time is set 12 hours off. Advance the hour hand by 12 hours (passing through noon) to correct the AM/PM cycle. Then, reset the date if necessary.

Condensation or fog appears under the crystal.

This suggests moisture has entered the watch case, potentially compromising the water resistance. Take the watch to an authorized service center immediately for inspection and repair to prevent internal damage.

Bracelet feels too tight or too loose.

The stainless steel bracelet may need to be adjusted by adding or removing links. It is highly recommended to seek professional assistance from a watchmaker or jeweler for this procedure to avoid damaging the bracelet.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Stylish and Versatile: The two-tone bracelet and classic dial design complement a wide range of outfits and occasions.
  • Reliable Timekeeping: Quartz movement ensures accurate and consistent time display.
  • Practical Date Function: Conveniently displays the current date, useful for daily scheduling.
  • Everyday Water Resistance: 5 ATM rating offers protection against splashes and brief immersion, enhancing its practicality.
  • Durable Build: Stainless steel case and bracelet, along with mineral crystal, provide good longevity.

Cons

  • Limited Water Sports Use: 5 ATM is not suitable for high-impact water activities like diving or snorkeling.
  • Battery Dependent: As a quartz watch, it will require battery replacement periodically.
  • Bracelet Adjustment: May require professional assistance for initial bracelet sizing to ensure a comfortable fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Initial Setup

  1. Setting the Time: Pull the crown (the small knob on the side of the watch) out to its outermost position (usually the second click). Turn the crown clockwise or counter-clockwise to set the hour and minute hands to the correct time. Push the crown back in completely to start the watch.
  2. Setting the Date: Pull the crown out to the first click. Turn the crown to adjust the date. Be careful not to set the date between 9 PM and 3 AM, as this can interfere with the date change mechanism. Once set, push the crown back in completely.

Compatibility

This Fossil Scarlette watch is highly versatile and compatible with a wide range of personal styles, from casual to formal. Its two-tone silver and yellow gold design allows it to pair beautifully with both silver and gold jewelry, making it a flexible choice for various ensembles.

Care and Maintenance

  • Cleaning: To maintain its luster, wipe the watch regularly with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth. For more thorough cleaning of the stainless steel bracelet, a slightly damp cloth can be used, ensuring it's dried immediately afterwards. Avoid harsh chemicals, soaps, or abrasive materials.
  • Water Resistance: The watch is water resistant up to 50 meters (5 ATM). This means it is suitable for showering, bathing, and swimming in shallow water. Do not press the crown or any buttons while the watch is wet. Avoid hot water, steam rooms, saunas, and high-pressure water jets, as these can compromise the water seals.
  • Avoiding Extreme Conditions: Protect your watch from extreme temperatures (hot or cold), direct sunlight for prolonged periods, and strong magnetic fields, which can affect its accuracy. Avoid harsh impacts or drops.
  • Battery Replacement: The Quartz movement is powered by a battery. When the watch stops or the second hand starts skipping, it's time for a battery replacement. It is recommended to have this done by a professional watchmaker or authorized service center to ensure proper re-sealing for water resistance.
  • Bracelet Adjustment: If the stainless steel bracelet is too loose or too tight, it may need to be adjusted. This typically involves removing or adding links. It is recommended to have this procedure performed by a professional to prevent damage to the bracelet or spring bars.
