How to really clean a watch?

If you’re interested to get to know the inside of your watch and give it a seriously thorough clean – take it apart.


You’ll need a clean workspace, a small and delicate screwdriver set, tweezers and remember to breathe regularly. Work with the watch manual, especially if it has cleaning instruction.

Use special watch cleaner solution and soak the parts and screws that you take off, one by one, in their order, so you won’t mix them up later. Clean the parts with a small brush and make sure they get dry.

If you are really brave, you can also oil the inside springs, hands and basically take the entire thing apart and soak it in the cleaner. But we’re not going to tell you how. We don’t need any angry emails…
