Frequently Asked Questions - TW821 Canteen TW Steel

How do I set the time and date on my TW821 Canteen?

To set the time, pull the crown out to position 2 (second click) and rotate clockwise/counter-clockwise. For the date, pull the crown out to position 1 (first click) and turn clockwise. Avoid setting date between 9 PM and 3 AM to prevent damage.

Is the TW Steel Canteen suitable for scuba diving?

Yes, with a water resistance rating of 200 meters (660 feet), it is suitable for recreational scuba diving. However, always ensure the crown is fully screwed down before any water exposure.

How often should I replace the battery?

The battery typically lasts about 2 years. When the second hand starts jumping in 4-second intervals, it's time to replace the battery. Have it done by a professional to maintain water resistance.

Can I replace the strap with any 22mm strap?

The TW821 Canteen uses a 22mm lug width. You can replace it with any standard 22mm strap, but we recommend using TW Steel genuine straps or high-quality rubber straps for best fit and durability.

What should I do if the watch stops?

First, check if the battery is dead. If the second hand is not moving, try pressing the crown in fully. If it still doesn't work, take it to a watch repair shop for battery replacement or further diagnosis.

How do I clean and maintain my TW Steel watch?

Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe the case and strap. Avoid using soap or chemicals. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soapy solution and a soft brush, then rinse with fresh water and dry thoroughly.

Is the crystal scratch-resistant?

The watch features a mineral glass crystal, which is scratch-resistant but not as hard as sapphire. Avoid contact with hard surfaces to prevent scratches.

What is the recommended storage condition?

Store your watch in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and magnets. Avoid extreme temperatures. If not worn for extended periods, consider removing the battery to prevent leakage.

How do I operate the screw-down crown?

To unlock, turn the crown counter-clockwise until it pops out. Pull to desired position. To lock, push the crown fully in and turn clockwise until snug. Do not overtighten.
