The Timberland Northbridge TDWGF0041204 is a commanding timepiece that fuses rugged American heritage with contemporary chronograph functionality. Housed in a substantial 45mm stainless steel case finished in a striking black ion-plated coating, this watch makes an unmistakable statement on the wrist. The sunray blue dial features a refined geometric pattern that catches light beautifully, complemented by bold applied indices and luminous hands that ensure exceptional legibility in all conditions.
This quartz chronograph is equipped with dual time functionality, allowing you to track two time zones simultaneously—an invaluable complication for the modern traveller or professional with international connections. The three sub-dials display 60-second chronograph counter, 12-hour and 24-hour indicators, whilst a discreet date window at 4 o'clock completes the functional layout. The watch is paired with a premium brown leather strap embossed with the iconic Timberland tree logo, secured by a black PVD-coated buckle that mirrors the case finish.
At Cassim & Co., we are proud to offer this exceptional timepiece from our curated collection of TIMBERLAND watches, each representing the brand's commitment to outdoor-inspired design and reliable Swiss-made movements. Water-resistant to 50 metres, the Northbridge is built to withstand the demands of daily wear whilst maintaining its sophisticated aesthetic. The 12mm case thickness strikes an ideal balance between presence and wearability, sitting comfortably beneath a shirt cuff when required.

FAQ
Q: What is the dual time complication on this watch?
A: The Timberland Northbridge features dedicated sub-dials that display a second time zone alongside your local time, with both 12-hour and 24-hour indicators. This allows you to track time in two different locations simultaneously—particularly useful for international travel or coordinating with colleagues across time zones.
Q: How does the chronograph function work?
A: The chronograph is operated via the pushers flanking the crown. The upper pusher starts and stops the timing function, whilst the lower pusher resets the chronograph hands to zero. The sub-dial at 6 o'clock measures elapsed seconds, allowing you to time events with precision.
Q: Is the black case coating durable?
A: Yes, the black ion-plating (IP) applied to the stainless steel case is a robust coating process that bonds the finish at a molecular level. Whilst highly durable, we recommend avoiding harsh impacts and abrasive materials to maintain its pristine appearance over time.
Q: Can I swim or shower with this watch?
A: With 50 metres of water resistance, the Northbridge is suitable for splashes, rain, and brief immersion such as handwashing. However, we do not recommend swimming, showering, or exposing it to hot water, as these activities may compromise the seals and void your warranty.
Q: What type of battery does this watch use and how long will it last?
A: As a quartz timepiece, the Northbridge is powered by a standard watch battery. Battery life typically ranges from 2-3 years depending on usage of the chronograph function. When replacement is needed, visit us at Cassim & Co. where we can replace the battery and pressure-test the watch to maintain its water resistance.
Q: Is the leather strap replaceable?
A: Yes, the 22mm leather strap can be replaced with any compatible 22mm watch strap. We stock a selection of alternative straps at our Mall of the South location and can fit these for you professionally.
Q: Does this watch come with a warranty?
A: Absolutely. This Timberland watch includes a 2-year international manufacturer's warranty covering manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship when purchased from an authorised retailer such as Cassim & Co.
Warranty
- This Timberland watch carries a 2-year international manufacturer's warranty from the date of purchase, valid when purchased from an authorised retailer such as Cassim & Co.
- The warranty covers manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship under normal use conditions.
- The warranty does not cover: normal wear and tear, battery replacement, damage to straps or bracelets, scratches or cosmetic wear to the case or crystal, accidental damage, water damage resulting from improper use or failure to observe water resistance limits, or damage caused by unauthorised repairs or modifications.
- To claim under warranty, the original proof of purchase from Cassim & Co. must be presented along with the warranty documentation provided at time of sale.
- Warranty service must be performed by authorised Timberland service centres. Contact Cassim & Co. to arrange warranty claims—we will facilitate the process on your behalf.

Care Guide
- Avoid exposing your Timberland watch to extreme temperatures, strong magnetic fields, or harsh chemicals including perfumes, solvents, and cleaning agents.
- After exposure to saltwater or chlorinated water (within the watch's resistance limits), rinse with fresh water and dry thoroughly with a soft cloth.
- Clean the stainless steel case and black coating periodically with a slightly damp microfibre cloth. Avoid abrasive materials that may scratch the finish.
- For the leather strap, keep away from prolonged water exposure and moisture. Leather is a natural material that will develop a unique patina over time. Condition occasionally with a leather care product to maintain suppleness.
- If the watch is not worn regularly, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve both the movement and strap.
- Have the battery replaced by a professional watchmaker when the watch stops or displays erratic timekeeping. At Cassim & Co., we replace batteries and pressure-test the case to ensure continued water resistance.
- We recommend a complete service every 3-4 years, including gasket replacement and case refinishing if required, to maintain optimal performance and appearance.
- Do not operate the chronograph pushers or crown whilst underwater, as this may allow water ingress and damage the movement.
