Don't know why you would use an electric toothbrush to clean it. But I guess it would be fine?

Ridiculous use of a tooth brush, electric or not.

Definite cause of micro scratches, especially on PM models.

Wouldn't that result in a ban?

I also don't understand how there can possibly be this much discussion about cleaning a Rolex.

A regular toothbrush is fine if you need it.

Washing regularly with soap is more than enough.

It's a watch and this isn't some high level science. Just wash it like you would wash pretty much anything.
Have to agree and subject closed..
