How do you clean your precious Rolex..??

[feudallordcult]

never tried polishing with those strong stuffs like capecod.. but can imagine very diff to polish the president bracelet as too rounded links n same goes to jubilee bracelet..

ah my friend, that's where u start to build patience. imagine stripping the bracelet into individual links then carefully polish piece by piece with a cotton bud and in one single direction! the thought of it is sufficient to make one go bonkers.

anyway, i did the above-mentioned with a lady's DJ and now it's quite delightful...or at least that's what the owner commented to me.

How are you able to detach all the links? most links are not detachable....

My normal handsoap liquid always restore my watches to a shining state....maybe my standards for shine is low...

Same for me, a good wash and wipe every other day to keep mine shiny ... not too fancy

i use tooth brush and paste. it does the work fine for me.

Sound silly but sometimes I use toothpaste gel to wash my rolexs and after, did some light cleaning using soft cloth.

Monthly - I use a kids tooth brush, warm soapy water..... soak for 5mins then brush away... pay attention to links, bezel area and case back ( the dirty spots. ).

Then do a good rinse, and rotate bezel / move links to get trapped soapy water out.

Dry well with a cloth, then use a soft cotton cloth to do a quick polish up

Watch is good again, and the above in my experience does not damage the watch.

[tyler]

For me, I wash it with just soap and water after wearing to get rid of the grim.
