Okay, so, I’ve got this Rolex, a gold one. It’s a real beauty, but you know, keeping it looking shiny and new? That’s the real deal. I mean, it wasn’t cheap, so I’m all about making sure it stays in tip-top shape, you know?

First off, I started wearing it pretty much every day. Yeah, I know, some folks keep these things locked up, but what’s the point, right? These watches are built to be tough. Plus, wearing it keeps it running smoothly. It’s like, they need that regular movement to stay in good condition.
Then, there’s the cleaning. I got myself a microfiber cloth, nothing fancy, but it does the trick. Every now and then, I give the watch a gentle wipe down. It’s amazing how much dust and stuff can build up. I make sure I wipe down the case and also the bracelet, being careful but not overly cautious because it is designed to be durable.
But, here’s the kicker – I also wash it. Yeah, you heard that right. Every once in a while, I use some soapy water and this soft brush I found. I make real sure the crown thingy is screwed down tight. You don’t want water getting in there, no sir. I gently brush the whole thing, the case, the bracelet, everything. It’s like giving it a little bath.
I’ve also learned to be mindful of where I wear it. Like, I’m not going to wear it if I’m doing something super rough. Also try to avoid extreme heat and cold. You don’t want to put it in any extreme enviornment. It’s a nice watch, but you don’t have to be too precious about it.
Here is what I usually do:

- Wear it daily: Keeps it running like it should.
- Clean it regularly: A soft cloth does wonders.
- Wash it occasionally: Soapy water and a soft brush, just make sure that crown is tight!
- Be mindful: Avoid extreme temperatures and shocks.
So, yeah, that’s my routine. It’s not rocket science, just some common-sense stuff. But it keeps my Rolex looking great, and I’m pretty sure it’ll keep ticking for years to come. I feel pretty good about how it’s holding up, and honestly, it still looks as good as the day I got it.
