Rolex watches are an undeniable investment and if you just purchased something as valuable and desirable as a Rolex Explorer then it is only natural that you’ll want to maintain its present condition. Taking care of Rolex watches will help them to maintain their value and keep them in excellent working order.

Should anything happen your Rolex watch that would require it to be repaired then you should always ensure that the watch is returned to the manufacturer to be repaired. This is the only way that you can ensure that components used to repair the watch will be genuine Rolex parts. Plus, all repairs carried out by Rolex are authenticated with a certificate to show that the repair has been carried out by a qualified Rolex technician. So, should your Rolex Explorer stop working for one reason or another then ensure the repairs are only ever carried out by Rolex themselves.

Also, to ensure that your watch functions smoothly without fault then it should be serviced every five years by a licensed Rolex technician. You can send the watch away to have this done, but some dealers will be able to do it on their premises. The watch will be oiled and cleaned ensuring it remains in pristine working condition for years to come. You should also keep your Rolex clean and polished yourself. However, treat it as you would any other valuable piece of jewellery. The cleaning should be done carefully and only with a soft jewellery cloth.

If you follow these steps then it’s likely that your Rolex watch will last longer than you!
