Men's watch specifications

Using and caring for the Swiss Military Hanowa SMWGH0006403

To keep the watch performing well, rinse the case and bracelet with fresh water after exposure to salt water or chlorine, then dry with a soft cloth. Ensure the crown is fully screwed down before any water contact. Clean the sapphire crystal with a microfibre cloth; avoid abrasive polishes. Have the battery replaced by a professional to maintain water resistance, and check the bracelet links periodically for secure pins.

• Rinse with fresh water after swimming in the sea or pool to prevent corrosion on the stainless steel.
• Always screw the crown down tightly before submerging the watch to preserve the 30 ATM seal.
• Clean the sapphire crystal only with a soft, lint-free cloth; harsh chemicals can damage anti-reflective coatings.
• Schedule battery changes with a qualified watchmaker who can pressure-test the case afterwards.
• Inspect the bracelet clasp and link pins every few months to ensure they remain secure.
