Watch specifications

Using and caring for the Swiss Military Hanowa SMWGH2200101

The stainless steel bracelet can be adjusted by a jeweller for a precise fit, and the sapphire crystal only needs a soft cloth to remove fingerprints. Rinse the watch with fresh water after exposure to saltwater or chlorine to preserve the seals. Replace the battery every two to three years through an authorised service centre to maintain water resistance.

• Wipe the case and bracelet with a microfibre cloth to keep the finish bright
• Rinse under lukewarm water after swimming in the sea or pool
• Avoid extreme temperature changes and strong magnetic fields
• Have the crown and seals checked during battery changes
• Store in a dry place when not worn for long periods

How to choose the right watch

When selecting a stainless steel men's watch, consider case size, movement type, water resistance, and bracelet style. This model offers a 40mm case that suits most wrists, a Swiss quartz movement for accurate low-maintenance timekeeping, 10 ATM water resistance for swimming, and a matching metal bracelet that resists wear. If you need a larger case, automatic movement, or leather strap, other models may fit better.
