Take a gallon of distilled snow melt water from Mount Weißkugel in Austria and let it naturally get to to room temperature over the course of 3 months. Pour it into a pewter saucer and add 1 grain of natural cane sugar. Submerge your watch and brush lightly with a horsehair comb while reading it “The Giving Tree”. Let the watch dry inside a pallet of cedar wood chips for 3 additional months before wearing.

Don’t forget that you can only begin the cleansing process during a full moon while wearing a ceremonial robe.

Yup. Not hot. It’s designed to dive into the ocean, scrubbing it in your sink won’t hurt it. Make sure you rinse all the soap out of it; leaving soap on it / in the bracelet links and crevices won’t hurt it but it will make it get dirty again much faster.

Use a very soft toothbrush and baby soap under warm water. Make sure the crown is tightly screwed down. Blow dry with cool or warm air.

No need to even blow dry. Just use a soft towel to dab it down.

Fill a basin with water rather than use running water. Reduces the water pressure (your watch can obviously handle it, but just in case). Soaking helps too. Don’t scrub too hard. The sapphire crystal will be fine but sometimes the brushed steel can wear if scrubbed hard (which is essentially polishing).

I use dawn and a soft tooth brush. I submerge if for a few mins in the soapy water and then brush the bracelet gently, rinse it and dry it with a microfiber cloth.

Toothbrush, dish soap, water. Make sure the crown is screwed down and avoid rapid temp changes. The water pressure from your sink is not going to hurt it. My watches go in the steam room/shower at my gym all the time and I’ve never had an issue.

Sonic water cleaner or whatever they’re call. It’s meant for jewelry and can be found on amazon. But that’s only for the bracelet not the watch itself.
