How to clean Apple-branded bands  Remove the band from Apple Watch before cleaning. See Remove, change, and fasten bands.

For the leather portions of the bands, wipe them clean with a nonabrasive, lint-free cloth, lightly dampened with fresh water (if necessary). After cleaning, let the band air dry thoroughly before re-attaching to Apple Watch. Don’t store leather bands in direct sunlight, at high temperatures, or in high humidity. Don’t soak leather bands in water. The leather bands are not water resistant.

For all other bands and clasps, wipe them clean with a nonabrasive, lint-free cloth, lightly dampened with fresh water (if necessary). Dry the band thoroughly with a nonabrasive, lint-free cloth before re-attaching to Apple Watch.
