Took my diver on its first swim 🌞🌴
Rinsed it off afterwards with normal tap water, but is there anything else I should do to take care of my watch after a salty dip? What is your experience. Any tips and tricks are welcome 😁

I have been collecting watches for a while now. However, I am just starting to develop my taste and collection, so still pretty new to it all.

I would rinse with fresh water as you did, but also rotate the bezel in order to remove any grains of sand that may have made their way under the bezel. I noticed this on my BB58 because the bezel was a little grimy and harder to rotate after an ocean dip.
Rinse well. That's it.
I've worn mine this year in the North Sea, Red Sea (very salty) and Aegean.
Just rinsed them off on leaving the salt water under a tap or shower and good to go again! They are doing what they are designed for (well most of them anyway!)
Nice Glycine by the way! I would like one!
I generally try to avoid the beach -- sand WILL get into every nook and crevice of the watch. I'd run it under some running water to rinse and turn the bezel at the same time to try and dislodge as much sand as you can. Other than that, that's it.

Thank you and yeah it's a real looker 😊👍 and with 300 meters water resistance it's a bargain for the price 😉
Absolutely it's at the top of my next purchase list. Always admired the glycine divers. They seem to get mixed reviews!
