Keep That Rolex Looking Good
This has been a topic of debate lately, and I think it is rather simple to keep your Rolex and other luxury watches clean.
Soap and water is what has been working for more than 15 years on all my luxury watches with bracelets. I will say that using a dish washing detergent is not advised as people have stated that the grease cutting properties will dry out the gaskets prematurely. Even when you clean your bracelet often there is no reason why a gentle hand soap and your fingers can’t wash your watch well. If you use a moisturizing soap for your hands and that doesn’t dry out your hands then your bracelet and watch will not be harmed. I wash my Rolex GMT very often and have had no problems with any accumulation. Be certain the crown is tightened and can not come undone. Look for any signs of condensation and if some is evident than bring the timepiece in for repair. These are only some tips that have worked for me – there are other methods for cleaning a high end watch. Other people might use a gentle brush, but this has never been necessary for me.
