How do you clean the bracelet so frequently? Do you just do a quick wipe down or do you scrub with a toothbrush?

I use a small baby washcloth, Dawn and water. Dry with a bathroom hand towel.

i use a soft toothbrush and dish soap like Palmolive or dawn, sometimes my in the shower my Irish Spring and it smells nice..haha. i have jewelry cleaner...

Note: also, the bezel was stuck and was hard to move, i googled it and i was getting comments about taking it in or taking it apart...ohhh no to that!!!!
A Rolex owner said take a hot shower and give it a good scrub (cleaning)with a toothbrush, after a few times it will loosen up the dirt and grime around the bezel and your Rolex will be okay!!!
He was right....

Nothing like an ultrasonic cleaning.

Take the bracelet off every six months or so and put it in the machine. Amazing how much junk comes out even if the watch is cleaned with soap and water just before the ultrasonic "treatment".

This is a very good tip. Works like a charm.

I never said they don't get dirty.

You said they don't get dirty enough to matter. To think that, you've either never seen how much dirt can be stuck in a bracelet, or you don't understand how abrasive dirt is.

The ultrasonic is a must have tool! You will be surprise the first time....

No, I didn't. Try reading it again. And wind your neck in.

I bought one recently, put a very dirty daily tt sub in there on highest temp for about half hour and nothing came out of it at all, did I do something wrong? I just used tap water should I of put some sort of solution in there? It was quite an expensive one too.

I use a teaspoon of dishwasher soap.

Do you suggest buying your own machine and would you recommend any machine in particular?

I use a commercial grade machine for cleaning surgical instruments. I don’t know if you need to go this far, but I can attest to it working very well.
