Terrible to admit I’ve never actually thoroughly cleaned any of my watches but then I rarely wear them long enough to get dirty. Usually give them a rub over before I put them on.Originally Posted by rmcin626
I’d use a stiff toothbrush and warm water (being careful near the case if water resistance is minimal), dab dry with a paper kitchen towel then finish off with a polishing cloth.

Steer clear of wipes that contain alcohol though as they may degrade seals and gaskets plus I'd be concerned wipes might leave a residue that attracts more dust/dirt.

I use babywipes to clean the knobs, and fascia of my preamps.

Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?
“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".
“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”
"You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”
“There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”
***SMILE, BE HAPPY***
