5 Crucial Practices for Looking After & Caring for Your Luxury Wristwatch

Owning a luxury wristwatch is not just about flaunting it; it's also about preserving its quality and longevity. To ensure that your luxury wristwatch remains in top condition, there are several crucial practices you should follow:

 

Regular Cleaning and Polishing

Dust, sweat, and other particles can accumulate on your watch over time, and it's essential to keep it clean to maintain its appearance. You should clean your watch regularly using a microfiber cloth and a mild cleaning solution. If your watch has scratches or scuffs, consider taking it to a professional for polishing.

 

Proper Storage

When you're not wearing your watch, it's crucial to store it properly to prevent damage. Ideally, you should keep your luxury wristwatch in a dedicated watch box or pouch. This protects it from dust, moisture, and sunlight, which can cause the strap or bracelet to deteriorate.

 

Regular Servicing

Even the most high-end luxury wristwatches require regular servicing to maintain their functionality. It's recommended to take your watch to a professional for servicing every three to five years. This involves a complete cleaning, inspection, and lubrication of the movement to ensure that it continues to function correctly.

 

Water Resistance Maintenance

If your watch is water-resistant, you should ensure that you're maintaining this feature. Regularly check the water resistance rating and make sure that the gaskets are still in good condition. Avoid wearing your watch in hot tubs, saunas, or pools as the heat can affect the gaskets' performance.

 

Avoiding Extreme Conditions

Exposure to extreme temperatures can affect your watch's performance, so it's essential to avoid exposing your watch to extreme heat or cold. This means avoiding leaving your watch in direct sunlight, wearing it while doing activities that generate a lot of heat, and storing it in extremely cold environments.

By following these crucial practices, you can ensure that your luxury wristwatch remains in top condition and retains its value over time.
