Is this true? I don't know how eager I am to dip diamonds in cola when I know what it does to human teeth and tummies, any ideas anyone?
I got food in my belly and a license for my telly
And nothing's going to bring me down

Yes, it is true but I am not sure it would be safe for the setting of a stone.0

I use neat Vodka to clean mine! As these days we don't drink much of the hard stuff ( prefer wine) I decanted about 300 mls into an old jar and I put my diamond and gold chain bracelet etc. inside a bit of netting ( in order to fish it out after!) let it sit for 20 mins then wipe with a clean dry cloth, trust me you will be shocked at the black gunk that comes off your watches and chains! ~yuck!
I must point out that my watch is waterproof so ok to bathe in this manner lol!
If your watch isn't, you can still use neat vodka on a cloth to clean it and it will still come up lovely and shiny;
