That could be hazardous to your Rolex, if you have old rubbers that leak.

Please tell the Mrs. that I was actually admiring the brush, I meant no disrespect to the brush... It looks very industrial-like and quite capable of removing calcium deposits from porcelain.

I had a heart attack when I first opened this thread. Such reckless disregard for fragile watches.

Please carefully dry the watch using cotton wool and send it straight to your nearest AD, the prognosis is bleak I fear.... So so sorry for your loss

You should always check your rubbers before you go diving
