Essential Ways For Rolex Watch Maintenance

By Katina Brady


Owning a Rolex watch makes you feel stylish and at the same time, cool. This expensive accessory has all the good qualities customers are looking for but not everyone can afford. If have one, make it a point to maintain it the best possible way you can so that your money will not be wasted.

Precise functionality will depend on use and care. If you will not take good care of it while in use, it can become dirty and can have many scratches. Your watch can still be around for decades if you know some Rolex watch maintenance.

You have to wear your Rolex most of the time. This will allow the mechanism to run in a precise manner, thus assuring you that it is telling you the right time of the day. This will enable its lubricants to maintain adhesiveness important to keep it moving. If in any case you cannot wear it on a daily basis, try using it at least once in a week. Otherwise, the lubricants will solidify causing the movements of the hands of the accessory to slow down and eventually stop.

In addition, there are basic cleaning and after care for your precious hand clock. When you are using it, like any other kind of accessory, dirt can insert into its spaces and linings, the lens, and the bracelet. A piece of cloth, mild soap, a small brush, and lukewarm water can do the cleaning. However, make sure it is clean as well as your hands. Sanitize before cleaning it. Soap it and gently brush it, then rinse with the lukewarm water. After which, wipe it dry with a clean piece of cloth.

The bracelet of the Rolex is also part of the accessory. It can be an accessory itself because it is attractive and shiny. Prevent it from scratches as much as possible, but if it already has some, try to polish it. There are available watch polishes in stores perfect for this kind of watch.

If you cannot wear your Rolex on a regular basis, you must wind it at least once in seven days. If not, it will not be functional. It might even stop moving forever. They are actually self winding for forty eight hours but only up to that limit. If they are not wound up within that time frame, your watch may need high servicing that may cost you a lot.

These watches are waterproof and can be used even when you are swimming or taking a bath. However, be cautious because it may still get defects because of water contact. It is true that it can be used under a depth of three hundred thirty feet, but it depends on the model. If you are not sure about the specifications of your model, be sure not to use them while bathing.

Expensive accessories like this also have drawbacks. It is not enough to just wear them, you also have to know the basic after care. If yours needs repair, there are also servicing centers available anywhere.

Rolex should not be worn just for the purpose of showing off. It is a useful instrument that lets you know you are not yet late for your appointments. Make sure you take care of it and treat it as one of your precious treasures.
