Maintaining Your Watch

Although nothing beats careful use, you can follow a few steps to make sure your watches live long and healthy lives.

Watch the temperature: Never leave your watch in extreme hot or cold temperatures.

Stay away from magnets: Do not expose quartz watches to magnets.

Keep your watch clean: Clean your watch regularly to remove sweat, dirt, and oil. Wipe the crystal, case, and band with a soft cloth. Leather bands benefit from skin oil, but you still want to remove excess dirt. Clean metal bands with soap, water, and a soft brush if needed. Take your mechanical watch to the pros: Take your mechanical watch to a professional when gears need cleaning and for regular gear maintenance every three to five years.
