CARING FOR 

YOUR ROLEX 

Thanks to Rolex expertise, your watch 
will require very little day-to-day care.

You can help preserve its lustre by 
cleaning it occasionally with a microfibre 
cloth. You can also wash the case and 
bracelet from time to time using soapy 
water and a soft brush. After wearing 
your watch in the sea, it is important to 
rinse it with fresh water to remove any 
salt and sand deposits.
