How To Clean Rolex Box?

Hello guys,

Some of my "friends" decided that my Rolex box would be a good place to put some m&ms in... any tips on cleaning it out? Would rather not have to spend $100 for a new box. There is a small stain on it. Thanks guys.

Where can you get a new box for $100? I hear there are a lot of fakes out there and ADs refuse to replace with new one.

Thanks for all of the quick responses guys. I added the pictures but you can't see it very well in the pictures. It is all good and fixed now and I did use baby wipes. I left them alone for about 2 minutes and my office had candy eaten and the Rolex hidden. Anyways, it is all good now and back to normal lol.

Now that we know that you’re 14 this thread makes sense.

I had to search to find what you were referring to.

You can easily and should find new friends at that age lol.

I suggest you just use common sense.

Anyone who doesn’t open, and finish an entire bag of M&M’s has no friends.

This post is propaganda.

If I had a Rolex when I was 14 the box would have had a lot worse put in it by my "friends".

You probably won't even remember that box when your sitting on a collection of Patek by 20.
