The Police Norwood PEWGQ0040001 is a commanding chronograph timepiece that fuses industrial design with contemporary sportswear aesthetics. Housed within a 45mm gunmetal PVD-coated stainless steel case with a distinctive square profile, this quartz-powered watch delivers bold visual impact and precision timekeeping. The multi-layered blue dial showcases a skeletonised central section with textured detailing, a dedicated chronograph sub-dial at six o'clock, and gold-tone luminous hands and indices for optimal legibility. The blue inner bezel ring and Police branding at twelve o'clock reinforce the brand's signature assertive styling.
Engineered for reliability and versatility, the Norwood chronograph is powered by a precision quartz movement and protected by a mineral crystal.

FAQ
Q: Is this Police Norwood watch automatic or battery-powered?
A: The Police Norwood PEWGQ0040001 is powered by a precision quartz movement, meaning it uses a battery rather than automatic winding. Quartz movements are renowned for their accuracy and low maintenance requirements. When the battery requires replacement after approximately 2-3 years, our team at Cassim & Co. can replace it for you.
Q: What does the chronograph function do on this watch?
A: The chronograph is a stopwatch function operated by the pushers on the right side of the case. The sub-dial at six o'clock tracks elapsed seconds when the chronograph is activated, making this watch ideal for timing events, workouts, or any activity where precise time measurement is needed.
Q: Can I wear this watch while swimming?
A: With 50 metres of water resistance, the Norwood is suitable for splashes, rain, and brief immersion such as handwashing or showering. However, it is not recommended for swimming, diving, or high-impact water sports. The crown and pushers should not be operated while the watch is wet or submerged.
Q: What is PVD coating and will it wear off?
A: PVD (Physical Vapour Deposition) is an advanced coating process that bonds a gunmetal finish to the stainless steel case at a molecular level. This coating is highly durable and scratch-resistant, though extreme abrasion over many years may cause minor wear. With proper care, the PVD finish will maintain its appearance for the lifetime of the watch.
Q: Is this watch suitable for someone with a smaller wrist?
A: At 45mm in diameter, the Norwood has a bold, substantial presence designed for medium to larger wrists (approximately 16cm to 21cm circumference). If you're unsure about sizing, we recommend visiting our Mall of the South boutique to try the watch on in person and ensure the perfect fit.
Q: Does this watch come with an official Police warranty?
A: Yes, as an authorised Police retailer, Cassim & Co. supplies this watch with a full 2-year international Police warranty from the date of purchase. The warranty covers manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship when purchased from an authorised dealer.
Q: Can the silicone strap be replaced if it becomes worn?
A: Absolutely. The 28mm silicone strap can be replaced with a genuine Police replacement strap or a compatible aftermarket option. Our team can assist with strap replacements and adjustments at our Johannesburg boutique, ensuring your watch continues to look and feel perfect.

Care Guide
- Clean the case and silicone strap regularly with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt, sweat, and oils. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that may damage the PVD coating.
- Rinse the watch with fresh water after exposure to chlorinated pool water, salt water, or perspiration, and dry thoroughly with a soft cloth.
- Avoid operating the crown or chronograph pushers while the watch is wet or submerged, as moisture may enter the case and damage the movement.
- Store your Police watch in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and magnetic fields when not being worn.
- Have the battery replaced by a professional watchmaker every 2-3 years. Our Cassim & Co. service team can perform battery replacements while checking the water resistance seals.
- The mineral crystal is scratch-resistant but not scratchproof. Avoid impacts against hard surfaces and remove the watch during activities that may cause damage.
- The water resistance seals should be checked every 2-3 years to maintain the 50-metre rating, particularly after battery replacements or any servicing.
- Avoid exposing the watch to solvents, perfumes, cosmetics, or cleaning products, as these may degrade the silicone strap or damage the case finish over time.
