Are your watches always clean? Is there something wrong with me?

I know the average person doesn't care, but most of us here aren't average in our loves for watches.

I've seen beat up, oily, and watches that have probably never been washed.

Had an experience the other day, and I started to question myself.

Went to the Omega boutique here in NYC to check out some straps. On a side note, the boutique staff is always amazing and I've never had a bad experience with them.

Took off my watch and handed it to the woman in the service area upstairs. They enter serials to get a full list of compatible parts.

She immediately asked if I had just gotten it.

I told her no, it was about a year old. She asked if I wore it much. I told her about 4 days a week.

"Really?" Was her response. She said she had never seen someone come in with a watch as clean. Especially one that was worn regularly.

I don't wash it every day, but I do wipe it down with a microfiber cloth before I put it on and when I take it off. I'm extremely wrist aware so I don't get that many scratches, and I admit to having some cloths in my desk at work.
