How to Clean Your Watch Using the HEIST Watch Cleaner
Share
Whether you own a luxury timepiece or a sentimental favourite, keeping your watch clean is essential for both its longevity and appearance. The HEIST watch cleaner is designed to make this process simple and effective. Here’s a step-by-step guide to ensure your watch sparkles without compromising its delicate components.
Gather Your Supplies
Before you begin, ensure you have the following items:
- The Heist watch cleaner
- The Heist soft microfibre cloth
- The Heist small, soft-bristled brush
Step 1: Assess Your Watch’s Water Resistance
Not all watches are created equal when it comes to water resistance. Check the manufacturer’s specifications to determine if your watch can be submerged. For watches that are not water-resistant, avoid using excessive liquid and focus on a more detailed surface clean.
Step 2: Remove the Strap (If Possible)
If your watch has a removable strap, such as a leather or fabric band, take it off. This allows you to clean the strap and case separately, preventing damage to materials that may not respond well to moisture.
Step 3: Apply HEIST Watch Cleaner
Spray a small amount of HEIST watch cleaner directly onto the case of the watch. Alternatively, you can spray the cleaner onto the microfiber cloth to avoid oversaturating the watch. Focus on areas like the bezel, crown, and case back where grime tends to accumulate.
Step 4: Gently Scrub with a Brush
Use the soft-bristled brush to clean intricate details, such as the lugs and the links of a metal bracelet. For non-metal straps, lightly brush the surface to remove dirt. Avoid applying too much pressure, especially on plated or polished surfaces, to prevent scratches.
Step 5: Rinse or Wipe Down
If your watch is water-resistant, rinse it under lukewarm water to remove any remaining cleaner. For non-water-resistant watches, dampen a corner of the microfiber cloth with water and carefully wipe away any residue.
Step 6: Dry Thoroughly
Use a lint-free drying cloth to pat your watch dry. Ensure all moisture is removed, especially around the crown and case back. If you removed the strap earlier, allow it to air-dry completely before reattaching it.
Step 7: Polish for a Finishing Touch
For a final flourish, use the dry microfiber cloth to polish the watch. This step will enhance its shine and remove any remaining smudges or fingerprints.
Bonus Tip: Regular Maintenance
To keep your watch looking its best, clean it regularly with the HEIST watch cleaner. For daily wear watches, a weekly clean can prevent dirt buildup. For occasional wear timepieces, a monthly clean should suffice.
