Whether it is a leather bracelet or a metal bracelet, if it is frequently exposed to the sun during wearing, leather fading and sweat corrosion will easily occur. It is recommended to maintain it for one year! Rolex watches have different levels of water resistance. If the water resistance ring ages due to wading, bathing, steam, etc., and the dial becomes foggy, it must be repaired in time and the water resistance element must be replaced to avoid water vapor corrosion movement. If the Rolex watch is worn properly, pay attention to water resistance, sun protection and cleaning. It is recommended to conduct a professional inspection of the watch every three years, such as whether parts are worn, such as movement cleaning and oil, to extend the beauty, practicality and value of the Rolex watch!
