How to Care for a Luxury Watch

Proper care can protect the appearance and performance of your watch for many years.

Clean your watch regularly with a soft, dry cloth. This helps remove dust, fingerprints and moisture. For metal bracelets, use a slightly damp cloth, but avoid water if the watch is not water resistant.

Keep leather straps away from perfumes, oils and excessive moisture. These substances can damage the colour and texture of the leather.

Store your watch in a soft pouch or watch box when it is not being worn. Avoid placing it close to magnets, direct sunlight or extreme temperatures.

Check the crown before exposing your watch to water. It should be completely closed. Water resistance may also reduce over time, so periodic testing is recommended.

Automatic watches should be serviced according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Proper cleaning, careful storage and regular maintenance will keep your watch looking elegant and working reliably.
