The Art of Watch Conservation: Discover Our Exclusive Guide

Daily care is the ultimate secret to your watch's longevity. Our guide outlines the three essential pillars of ongoing maintenance:

  • Winding: For an automatic watch, using an Ardent Héritage watch winder is essential. It simulates wrist movement, preventing the oils inside the movement from congealing.
  • Storage: Watches should be protected from direct sunlight to prevent the dial from fading. Also, keep your timepieces away from magnetic sources like smartphones or speakers, as these can disrupt the balance spring.
  • Manual Cleaning: A quick wipe with your Ardent Héritage cleaning kit's microfiber cloth after each wear is enough. This removes sweat acids and abrasive dust.

Why use ultrasound?

Sometimes manual cleaning reaches its limits, especially in areas inaccessible to the eye and hand. Our guide explains the benefits of an ultrasonic bath:

  1. Deep Cleaning: High-frequency vibrations create micro-bubbles (cavitation). These dislodge ingrained dirt between the links of steel bracelets.
  2. Restoration of Shine: This process restores the original brilliance of metals like gold, platinum, and steel, without the risk of scratches from manual rubbing.
  3. Hygiene and Durability: It removes skin residues and deposits that inevitably accumulate over time. This prevents corrosion from sweat or salt and extends the lifespan of the bracelet.

The Ardent Héritage Cleaning Kit

To complement these tips, we have developed the Ardent Héritage Cleaning Kit – the ideal addition for professional care at home. The guide explains how to use each tool:

  • The Precision Brush: Ideal for removing dust around the bezel and crown.
  • The Cleaning Solution: Specially formulated to protect precious metals and steels.
  • The High-Density Microfiber Cloth: For a final polish without any traces.

"Care is a ritual that strengthens the connection between the collector and their watch."
