Maintaining Your Watch Case
Not caring for your watch case only puts your timepieces at risk of damage. Lucky for you, not much maintenance is required to preserve its condition. Dirt will prove to be the biggest culprit you face in maintaining a watch box. Start with the obvious…clean your crib, more so the room which you look to keep the case in. Airing out the space and using a feather duster in common areas should suffice.

Next empty out the case and proceed to dust out all areas with a clean brush. Then wipe down all areas with a clean cloth. Some models come bundles with one. Any case constructed of wood, plastic, or metal should be wiped down with some form of wet cleaner. After that, it’s all about micro-management. Open the box every few weeks to ensure each watch in working and in excellent condition. That’s that!
