Platinum bracelet cleaninng advice?
I use the 7th generation liquid soap with my thumbs to clean the platinum bracelet. Will using a soft toothbrush scratch the bracelet even more? I wear my watch so there are scratches and i'm not scared of them but I do not want to add to them if it can be avoided.

Use Dawn dish soap as it will break down the oils and grime better.
If your watch is really dirty, fill a plastic Tupperware tub high enough to full submerge the watch and soak it for a hour in diluted Dawn dish soap and warm water. Then rinse under tap and use only your fingers and more Dawn soap. Rinse and let soak again for 30 minutes. Do your final Dawn and finger scrub and rinse. I promise you this will not leave any marks a brush will and will get it just as clean.

Sounds like when my wife does a number on a baking dish for a roast or whatever - I have to do a similar routine LOL

Remove the bracelet and use an ultrasonic, set temp to 35c.
