If your DD turns green you probably only paid $100 - 150 for it......

The only thing that should turn green when wearing a Daydate are the faces of people turning green with envy

I wash mine with warm soap and water, and an old soft toothbrush. I have a couple of two tone (gold and stainless) Rolexes, and they love the weather here in Florida. They all look like a million bucks. OK, not that much, but you get the idea.

ameyers6 · 26 July 2009, 01:10 AM

also any advice for cleaning

Colnago · 26 July 2009, 01:13 AM

Liquid soap is best, be sure the crown is screwed down first....and be sure to rinse all the soap off, soap residue can cause a rash.....18kt Gold will NEVER fade.....it will NEVER go green or leave a "tide mark" on your wrist.....keep it clean and wear it in good health

I use a mild liquid soap and have found a soft toothbrush is necessary for all the little crevices on the Presidential bracelet. When rinsing it off, again use the toothbrush to insure you have rid the bracelet of all the residue.

Colnago is correct, as a rash is possible if not rinsed properly. My wife found this out with her Rolex and she had a perfect half circle on her wrist from the back of the watch. It even included the little teeth marks on the edge.

Your watch will never turn green, however, it will dull somewhat if not cleaned regularly.
