As a precise timing instrument and fashion accessory, watch cleaning is crucial. Proper cleaning not only maintains the shiny appearance of an alloy quartz watch but also ensures its precise performance and long-lasting usage.
First, prepare a soft, clean microfiber cloth to avoid scratching the watch surface during wiping. If the alloy quartz watch is waterproof, you will also need some mild detergent and clean water. However, note that not all watches are waterproof, so be sure to confirm the watch’s water resistance before cleaning.
Metal Strap: Use mild soapy water to soak it, then gently brush it with a soft-bristle toothbrush to remove dirt and sweat. After brushing, rinse it with clean water and dry it with a dry cloth.
Leather Strap: Avoid soaking it directly in water. Instead, use a damp cloth with a small amount of leather cleaner to gently wipe the strap surface. For stubborn stains, you can use a specialized leather stain remover, but use it cautiously to avoid damaging the strap.
For stainless steel cases, use a microfiber cloth with a small amount of mild cleaning solution to wipe it. If there are scratches on the alloy quartz watch case, you can use specialized metal polishing paste to treat them, but be gentle.
For gold-plated or silver-plated cases, be more careful during cleaning. Avoid using overly strong cleaning agents to prevent damage to the plating.
Use a soft dry cloth to gently wipe the dial to remove surface dust. If there are stains on the dial, dip a small amount of specialized dial cleaner with a cotton swab and gently wipe, but be careful not to let the cleaner enter the movement.
Cleaning the movement requires professional skills and equipment, and it is generally not recommended to do it yourself. It is advisable to periodically send the watch to a professional repair center for movement maintenance and cleaning.
After cleaning, place the alloy quartz watch in a well-ventilated area to air dry naturally. Avoid direct sunlight to prevent affecting the performance and appearance of the alloy quartz watch. To protect the watch, you can also periodically apply a small amount of waterproof oil or maintenance oil.
In summary, the correct cleaning methods for alloy quartz watches can effectively maintain their performance and appearance, extending their lifespan. However, during the cleaning process, it is important to be careful and choose the appropriate cleaning methods and tools based on the material and characteristics of the watch.
