I have a DJ II Wht Gld Bzl. What's the best way to clean it?

The bezel has smudges on it that wont seem to come out and the band has a few smudges on it as well.

GradyPhilpott · 6 July 2013, 04:30 AM

Use a soft brush with warm, soapy water, per Rolex instructions.

Sylvester · 6 July 2013, 04:31 AM

Like a tooth brush?

Rolex_Bob · 6 July 2013, 04:32 AM

Toothbrush with a mild all purpose cleaner and warm water.

That's what I did here - https://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=303785

An old, soft toothbrush that has been thoroughly rinsed to remove any toothpaste residue.

Perfect thread for the info you are requesting.

porschejeff · 6 July 2013, 08:08 AM

Soap, water, soft toothbrush and use Veraet.

Here's a youtube video:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=axzIhE2LMsM

Just wear it in the shower.

OK, may the naysayers have a field day - I am a HUGE fan of Veraet Watch Spray. Wash in warm water with mild liquid soap (Dawn, etc.) and a SOFT toothbrush, rinse, spray on Veraet, more soft toothbrush action, re-rinse in warm water, then dry, then use microfiber to final dry.

Veraet will make the polished surfaces shine and sparkle like you've never seen.

For all-brushed SS watches, not so much of a difference.

For your Gold, White Gold, Two Tones, polished SS cases and bracelet links - WOW.

porschedude · 7 July 2013, 01:58 PM

Wear it swimming

I agree ...its great stuff!

Al1969 · 7 July 2013, 02:14 PM

Johnson and Johnson shampoo, baby toothbrush and warm water.

Terry McCassey · 7 July 2013, 03:40 PM

. . . I use my wife's electric toothbrush, works great !

I have this little fella pop by on alternating Thursdays. He really does a bang-up job of it...

True. VERAET also makes drying cloths that work extremely well in getting the wet watch dry quickly and scratch-free. But that Watch Spray they make is truly amazing.

Soak in hydrochloric acid followed by 5 minutes on a wire brush wheel, dry with blowtorch and polish with a sand blaster. No dirt anywhere, guaranteed!

I go through the local car wash with my arm out the window. Towel off watch, car interior , shirt and hair. Works like a charm.

Alcan · 7 July 2013, 09:25 PM

I've found this to be particularly effective for removing stubborn dirt, especially from the bezel. Note the final result:

Doug T · 7 July 2013, 10:53 PM

Veraet for sure. It will do the job like nothing else!

Does he charge by the hour or by the watch?

And I ordered a couple of weeks ago and this 30% off code was still working

If that code is no good there are many 10% off codes out there.
