I looked into this. I wouldn't. I was just wear the watch and enjoy it and in 5 year service it get it re polished and repeat.

Why not just keep it clean per Rolex instructions using warm water, soft toothbrush and a bit of Dawn dish soap or similar? Works fine on my two tone Sub with polished gold center links.

Wash in warm soapy water and dry with a soft cloth. If you then want to polish up the shiny surfaces a polishing cloth used sparingly will make it sparkle. These clothes will take off the brush finishes,, ![]()

Wash as per instructions. IF you need to take out the fine scratches, use Cape Cod Cloth

I stack gold bullion coins and bars. Would advise to never polish gold or a gold watch.

+1.
I GENTLY do this once a year on my TT Polished links. I do polish more vigorously my center SS links (about every 90 days or so).
