Hey Everyone - I recently got my hands on a Navtimer 01 LE and was wondering what your preferences are when it comes to routine daily/weekly cleaning. Personally I have been using a slightly damp microfiber cloth. Does anyone have a particular brand of cloth or any other cleaning product that you use on a regular basis? |

What you are doing is perfect - daily wiping pretty much does the job. Congrats on the Navi.

This is going to sound a little anal, but have you guys tried to polish/ clean the grooves on your Navi bezel? Mine are a little grimy but it seems a fiddly job. Anyone with tips? |

I use a ultra sonic cleaner with just demin water to avoid any water spots when dried. After wipe with a micro fibre cloth. Works amazing. The ultra sonic cleaner gets into areas you can't reach with a cloth. |

Now an autoclave, that's ok. For the grimy bezel grooves, a soft tooth brush with some degreaser like Simple Green will do the job easily |

You could also use a Q-tip for the bezel grooves. |

You can use a new electric toothbrush to get in between the links, The roating heads brush and shake any grime stuck in tight gaps. |
