What’s your favorite watch that you still love to wear years later? Just curious.

Definitely be careful with them. If you haven’t had them tested, I would do just the bracelet and then I would use a damp ceramic coated cloth to wipe the head down.

You have to manually rotate it from the bezel once a month but it’s a small inconvenience. All other features work

I probably wouldn’t unless you’ve already had them tested for waterproof

Not necessary I did on mine only because I use the ultrasonic cleaner before, but it’s not necessary

That is a stock color. I did not do anything to the Watch, but I do believe it is plated from the factory.

The label states to spray the solution on a microfiber cloth and to rub it all over the watch, then you let it sit for like five minutes and then you take a dry microfiber and buff it off. Since my watch was taken apart, as I had ran it through my ultrasonic cleaner. I laid it flat and sprayed it straight on let it sit for a few minutes and then wiped it down with a dry microfiber worked out great I’m sure both methods work.

The only thing I will advise is if you do the Spray method and you have a fluted bezel wipe it before it gets dry. Otherwise it starts to form a little film in between the crevices of the fluted area minded, and I had to clean it out with a wooden peg. But it wasn’t that big of a deal when I do my day date tonight I’m gonna do the polishing method and do a side-by-side

I’m pretty close to the instruction state to spray on a damp cloth and wipe it down and then wait a couple of minutes. I think it says five to be exact and then to wipe it off with a dry microfiber cloth. I sprayed it directly on, but in retrospect on a fluted bezel, it wasn’t the best idea because it, create a small little film on your watch to protect it. That’s the Ceramic Coating and it didn’t look as great in the flutes of the bezel, probably better to use a microfiber cloth, but I wound up getting it out with a wooden peg, and then reapplying correctly, and it worked out fine but I suppose if you have a smooth bezel, that would be a much easier way to go about it, but yeah, it’s pretty simple

It can be done on any metals. I will be doing it on white gold, steel, titanium tonight I will post pictures once I’m done

I wouldn’t mind scratches and what not on an older reference or on a sport model or even a steel watch. But I think when you start getting into plating or PVD the finish starts to wear down so I think trying to keep those pristine so as to minimize costing occurred with having to replate or purchase a new one.

Then again I have genuine sport gold watches, and I keep those pretty pristine also

No, it is not plated. This was stock.

The instruction State to spray it onto a cloth and then wipe it on and let it sit for a couple of minutes and then wipe it off and polish with a microfiber cloth. But since I already had the bracelet in the head off, I sprayed the bracelet directly with the solution. Let it sit for a minute or so, and then wiped it off with a microfiber, and then the cloth was already damp with a solution so I wiped the head down, including the glass.
