Guide

Sometimes, your Rolex watch will need to go in for repairs or services outside of the regular schedule. For instance, if you notice some condensation on the dial under the crystal or if your watch is running slow/fast, send it immediately for servicing before too much damage happens to the movement. Furthermore, depending on how harsh you are with your watch, the bezel and/or crystal may be replacing.

It’s important to take good care of your Rolex watch on a regular basis to prevent huge repairs down the road. As with most things in life, maintenance and prevention is easier and cheaper than fixing a major problem once the damage has been done.

If your Rolex watch is your daily watch (as it should be!) then it will inevitably get dirty. As it lives on your arm, it will come into contact with dirt and sweat so it’s important to clean it regularly. We recommend doing a quick wash once a week to keep it fresh. To clean your Rolex watch, simply run in under some warm water, lather it up with mild non-toxic soap, rinse it off, and dry it with a soft cloth. This is of course only applicable to metal bracelet Rolex watches.

When you wash your Rolex watch, make sure that the winding crown is safely screwed-down into the case to keep the water out! If you have a Daytona, make sure those chronograph pushers are screwed in as well.
