What to do when a watch goes into washing machine cycle?

So my wife says to me today, hey one of your watches was in your pants pocket in the washing machine  :o
She found it after the end of the cycle.

I put the watch in a can of rice.  Is there anything else I should be doing to it?

Lucky it's only a swiss army quartz watch.  It was not ticking when I put it in the rice this morning.
I pulled out the crown and put it in the rice container.  Should I pull the battery?

Any advise from here?

what I've done with success on quartz watches is take off the caseback, pull the battery, strap on some desiccant packs with a rubber band. (you can find packs in OTC medicines...aspirin, etc)...and wait

good news ...58 days till christmas :sm3
