Whether it’s a daily companion or a high-value collectible, proper care and correct usage ultimately determine how long it will last. From exterior cleaning to movement maintenance, every detail matters. Wipe Away Dirt with a Cloth When worn continuously over long periods, a watch naturally accumulates sweat, oils and dust, especially around the junctions between the case and bracelet, as w
