I agree with Tyler, Wristclean have a range of products to help look after your watch and they all work well. If you’re looking to buy it and need a supplier then contact forum member Sam (SC11) who is an official distributor.

Have you tried a Mr. Clean magic eraser?? Cheapest and easiest. If not then the Wristclean does wonders.

I agree, wristclean is great. In fact I've just used it on my ROC and its amazing how good it looks.

In all honesty I don't know how you let the strap get that dirty in the first place. I admit I have a thing about keeping my watches scrupulously clean, but that just looks horrid.

I use mine too, but they never get in that state. I'd be embarrassed to wear them like that. You clearly can't possibly be cleaning them regularly enough. I'd say, particularly if hot and sweaty, at least every week.

Wow, that also works as a personal hygiene routine. Works for me... until July

Some guys babysit their watches a lot! I wear them at pool, sea, gym, jogging... there is the result.

And they get clean, but some stains appear. If I didnt clean them up, I wouldn't be asking how to get rid of the stains. Have you tought that if the stains are there, they didnt come off by a soap and warm water wash???
