Hard calcium deposits on gold center links

[Kawirider]

Hey guys. It’s been a little while I’ve been off this forum. Other hobbies took over. Anyway, I know I’ve asked this before but I forget how I corrected it.

My TT skydweller is a bit of a safe queen. I only wear it occasionally. I go through the whole process of cleaning it. I use the watch spray(forgetting the name) and the soft bristle brush. Then I usually rinse with distilled water and blowdry.

Last time I cleaned it, I used some tap water and it must be incredibly hard because there’s some water spots on the gold polished center links. I’m not sure how to safely remove them. I feel like last time I let me watch sit in a bowl of water possibly with a drop of dish soap but I can’t recall for the life of me.

Any thoughts? That don’t involve rubbing the surface. Thanks.

Do you have any pictures? Also, are you sure that it's water spots and not patina?
