Evening gentlemen,

I was hoping to get some tips on how to clean my ROO, as compared to My rolex's, I'm finding it much more challenging to get it looking brand new.

Cheers

That is a weird question as I'm not aware of any special technique so I'm not even sure how to answer... How about you tell us how you clean yours and we will tell you if you are doing it wrong.

For example, do you use water? if not, then we would say "try using some water"

The standard way with soft tooth brush, mild soap etc. It's just when trying to get the cloth close to the lug. Might just be my fat fingers

Q tip then. Its hard to get the area between the case and bezel due to the angles. A dry Q tip also works for drying that same area when you are done as well.

Lmao!

Warm soapy water with the soft toothbrush is how I clean mine too.

water and a dab of dish soap always works wonders on my watches. sometimes i use a q-tip to scrub the hard to reach places

Hairdude1 · 16 August 2017, 08:55 AM

Soft tooth brush and warm water, maybe adding dish soap

eal15 · 16 August 2017, 09:19 AM

You've gotten great advice. Bracelet watches are much easier. I do my panerai's and AP with just Luke warm water and gentle hand soap. My Dover is back on rubber because I'd clean it less often as the oem gator was or is very delicate in regards of water. It should come out spotless. You do rinse the sispvaway with your clean fingers right? Sound stupid but I'm asking for real

Try Veraet and the toothbrush, often I just polish mine with a lens wipe while watching TV to give it that extra shine back. Good excuse to go to KFC too.

Toothbrushes scratch mine (any polished watch for that matter) easily, wonder how you guys do it.

use a soft bristle tooth brush. Your watch will thank you, and so will your tooth enamel.

Im a 24/7 watch guy...wouldn't notice them due all the scratches from wearing my watches. Just the other night I banged my steel diver into a bed board, proper love scar

Safer to take it off when you're winding it.

Xerxes77 · 18 August 2017, 05:36 AM

Water and liquid soap!
But no toothbrush because I think is very easy to scratch the watch

Abdullasaif · 18 August 2017, 10:58 PM

water and soap make sure to place in a dryer later

SC11 · 19 August 2017, 02:21 AM

For reference I have some Vereat/Wrist clean spray and brushes they work a treat.

So would any soft brush and hand soap for that matter but it's nice to spoil them sometimes.
