How do I clean the case of my Lamborghini Miura-inspired AJ-P400 watch?
Congratulations! You are now the proud owner of an AJ-P400 watch inspired by the iconic Lamborghini Miura. Do you admire it, want to preserve it from daily wear and tear, and wonder how to clean it? Regular maintenance is the key.
The watchmakers at Atelier Jalaper have put together a detailed guide with all the advice you need to ensure your watch is properly cleaned.
How to clean my watch from the Miura collection
To maintain your watch from the Miura collection, you'll need the right equipment: selecting the right tools is the first step to optimal cleaning.
- Microfiber cloth: attracts and holds dust without scratching your watch's steel case.
- Soft bristle brush: The brush will enable you to get into all the nooks and crannies of the housing, where dirt can accumulate. If you don't have a small brush to hand, you can also opt for a soft-bristle toothbrush.
- Clear, cold water: Prepare two containers of water, one for mixing with soap and the other for rinsing the housing after cleaning.
- Mild soap: A neutral soap is essential to avoid any chemical reaction with the delicate materials of your watch. Be especially careful not to use abrasive products such as toothpaste, which could scratch the case and glass of your watch.
Make sure you have a clean, well-lit, dust-free area in which to clean your watch.
The various stages in cleaning your watch from the Lamborghini Miura collection
Examine the condition of your watch:
First of all, handle your watch gently and look at it from every angle. Turn it over, tilt it under the light and spot any scratches or dirt that may need attention.
Remove the strap from your watch:
For effective cleaning, we recommend that you first remove the bracelet, so that you can get into every nook and cranny of the case. This will also prevent damage to the leather strap.

Wipe your watch once:
Before deep cleaning, gently wipe the case with a cloth to rid your watch of surface dirt.

Finalize cleaning with a microfiber cloth:
After cleaning your watch, use a microfiber cloth to dry it. This will remove all traces of moisture and give your watch a brilliant shine.

Now that your watch case has been cleaned, it's time to put the strap back on. Make sure the case is completely dry before proceeding. Once in place, you'll be able to admire your watch as good as new again.
Tips for daily care of your watch from the Miura collection
Regular care of your AJ-P400 is essential to ensure its durability. Remember to wipe your watch regularly with a microfiber cloth to prevent dirt from settling in and keep the case shiny.
Please note: The AJ-P400 is water-resistant to 5 ATM (50 meters). It is therefore waterproof up to a certain point, but avoid prolonged contact with water wherever possible.
