Festina F20445/3

Festina F20445/3 — Festina Quartz Watch (43mm, Black Dial)

The Festina F20445/3 is a men's quartz watch with a 43mm stainless steel case, black dial, and 10 atm (100 metres) — built for daily wear and light-to-moderate water exposure, but not for diving or high-impact water sports.

Who It's For

A fit for someone who wants a clean, everyday men's watch — a black dial that doesn't demand much thought once it's on the wrist. Quartz-powered rather than mechanical, which means consistent accuracy and next to no maintenance — the trade-off collectors make when they'd rather not think about their watch at all.

F20445/3 vs. Other Festina F20445 References

The Festina F20445 line stays identical on case, movement, and build across references — dial colour is what changes from one to the next. The F20445/3 comes in black. Other references in this family: Festina F20445/5. The only meaningful difference between references in this family is the dial — everything else about the watch is shared.

Care Tips

The battery is the main upkeep item — quartz batteries in this class typically last 1–3 years depending on use, and a jeweller or authorized service centre can confirm the interval for this exact movement. The mineral crystal handles everyday knocks fine but is softer than sapphire, so it's worth keeping away from sand, tools, or rough surfaces if you want the face to stay pristine. The steel strap needs little beyond an occasional wipe-down — it won't fade or crack the way leather does, though it's worth rinsing off salt water or chlorine if it gets exposed to either.

Limitations

Recreational swimming and snorkelling sit well within range here; anything involving dive tanks or high-board impact does not.

Common Questions

Can I swim or snorkel wearing this watch? Yes — swimming and snorkelling are both fine at this rating. Scuba diving and high-board diving are not.

How long does the battery last? It uses a standard watch battery that most jewellers can replace — expect roughly 1–3 years between changes depending on wear.

What's different between the F20445/3 and other Festina F20445 references? Only the dial colour — case size, movement, strap, and water resistance are identical across the Festina F20445 family.
