turned 21 back in June and have been looking to upgrade my collection and give the 116233 datejust and the 216570 explorer less wrist time. So after much deliberation i finally pulled the trigger on this new 116718 GMT.

this is the the most beautiful watch i have owned

Thats the last thing you want to do.

You should simply use your hands and normal liquid soap.
Nothing harsh.
Afterwhich dab dry with soft cloth.

Occassionally, go over very lightly with cape cod cloth to clear the oxidisation.
And afterwhich, very soft high quality paper towels which do not scratch.

All the best
