Sounds like a build up of of crud, wrist grime, etc....Rust does not just wipe off, so it was something else.

When I was on diving expedition some years ago I was diving two/three times a day six days a week in the sea. I rinsed my Submariner as best I could after each dive but there wasn't an abundance of fresh water. After a couple of months of this the lug holes appeared to have rust around them. I figured that this was coming out from the inside of the springbars. I had it serviced when I got back anyway.
