How to Make Your Watch Last Years

Five quick habits that keep your timepiece looking new.

  1. Wipe it down weekly. A soft microfiber cloth removes sweat and dust that can dull metal.

  2. Avoid harsh chemicals. Perfume, sanitizer, and cleaning sprays can discolor finishes—put your watch on last.

  3. Rinse after saltwater. If your model is water-resistant and you’ve been at the beach, a light fresh-water rinse keeps metal pristine.

  4. Store it right. Use a watch tray or pouch; avoid tossing it in a drawer where it can scratch.

  5. Size it properly. Links too loose cause excess wear; too tight stresses the clasp. Get a comfortable, secure fit.

When to service
Quartz movements are low-maintenance, but a new battery every 1–2 years keeps accuracy sharp. If you notice condensation or significant time loss, book a quick checkup.
