Cleaning and testing tools for watches
Whatever you have done to a watch, the final step is to clean off dust, fingerprints and any polishing residue.
What you will find
Use a blower to chase dust without contact, gloves to avoid fingerprints and an ultrasonic cleaner for metal bracelets and jewellery. Bergeon Rodico dabs grease and dust off small parts. To test accuracy, go to timegraphers.
Take care
An ultrasonic cleaner is for the metal bracelet only, taken off the watch, never for the whole watch. Leather straps are covered in our care guide.
Questions we often get
How should I clean my steel bracelet? Detach it first. Clean it in an ultrasonic bath, or with soapy water and a soft brush, and dry it well.
Can I put jewellery with stones in an ultrasonic cleaner? Only if you know the stones can take it: fragile or glued stones may not.
