We have all been there… you take off your smartwatch and you start to notice that your wrist is developing a rash under the band. The same thing can happen with a metal watchband over time. The cause of this is often a dirty watchband that develops a buildup over time that you often cannot even see. This is why you should be using an ultrasonic cleaner to clean your watchbands on a regular basis.
Some of the benefits of using an ultrasonic cleaner for your watchbands are:
Thorough Cleaning – now, I don’t know if you have ever tried to clean a metal watchband, but it is a rather difficult chore to do manually because of the small spaces between the links. Smartwatches are a bit easier to clean, but getting all the buildup off the band with a manual cleaning can still be challenging.
Rather than spend the time and effort, you can remove the watch from the watchband, add it to the tank with the proper cleaning solution, and by the time you get out of the shower, your watchband will be thoroughly cleaned.
Gentle on Materials – another benefit of using the ultrasonic cleaner is that you are not physically scrubbing the band, which can deteriorate materials like leather or rubber, or scratching a metal band. The bubbles do all the work with an ultrasonic cleaner, so you are avoiding the unnecessary wear and tear on the band.
Restored Appearance – a dirty watchband can get a dull look to it, which is another reason to clean the band on a regular basis. Once it’s cleaned, that original luster and shine returns, keeping the watch looking like new for many years to come.
No Skin Irritation – As noted above, skin irritation is often a product of a dirty wristband, especially for athletes using smartwatches to monitor their workouts. All that sweat creates a nasty buildup on the band, often resulting in rashes and even peeling skin. Using an ultrasonic cleaner regularly will remove all the residue causing the inflammation. In some cases, you may not even have to remove the band from the watch to clean it, but you definitely want to check the manufacturer’s recommendation on this to ensure cleaning the watch in this manner will not damage the electronics.
