Oil and Rolex
Is there any harm that oil can cause to a Rolex. Our beautiful beaches are being hit by the worst ecological disaster in history by BP. Photo below from the local newspaper.
Thx, Mike

Today I got a new watch I will have on my work.  First day was not so good, I have to dive in a oil drum after a tool.  I believe it will run a little bit fast now.  I suppose I have to clean it.  So I have to put it at a piece of wood.  I have to make sure it will not fell off when I clean it.  So here is the solution.  Now I´m pretty sure it will works.  So I pull out my genuine watch case cleaner.  And there we go.  Damn it´s dirty, I have to go a little closer.  Now it looks real good, or what?.  Then I have to fix the clasp.  A little grinding.  Then some welding.  This one was thin, so I have made a little bigger hole at the clasp. But now it´s fixed.  Then some grinding again.  And the fine works is done. Now I have to find my Cape Cod to do the final work and it will be close to orginal.
