Evening

I bought a TAG carrera recently, only a couple of months ago.

It's starting to look a bit grubby, is there a specific product or way to clean it, or is it a case of take it back to the jewellers?

Cheers

Soft toothbrush and run it under the tap. A small dab of liquid soap for the bracelet, and give it a quick scrub.

A 2 month old watch shouldn't need a trip to a jeweller.

^ This works a treat - Give your watch a good clean and it'll look like new again ...

I wouldn't risk it, the toothbrush method will probably be more effective anyway.

I would imagine the hot water would damage the seal around the crown after several washes ... Not worth it!
