TW Steel values the most important relationship of all – the one with the consumer. To express this, we hereby give you all the information that you need to enjoy your TW Steel watch to the fullest.

MAINTENANCE

TW Steel uses the best materials and carries out strict controls before the watch leaves the factory.
The way in which you wear or treat your TW Steel will determine whether the appearance of the watch is maintained in the future, or whether it will deteriorate. In order to enjoy wearing your TW Steel as long as possible, we include a number of tips: If the watch comes into contact with hard or corrosive materials, this can cause damage, which, if it occurs regularly, will become clearly visible in the form of scratches.

Your watch should be cleaned with a soft cotton cloth that is not impregnated with any cleaning material. Absolutely no cleaning materials should be used. It is advisable to regularly polish your watch with a soft cotton cloth. The watch is a precision mechanical instrument and should be treated as such. Adjusting the time or date, opening or closing the crown or crowncap, should not be done roughly, but carefully.
