Mechanical Watch Servicing

Servicing a mechanical watch is crucial to ensure its precision, reliability, and longevity. Within each mechanical watch lies a complex set of parts that require regular care and maintenance.

It’s optimal to service a watch every five years. Over time, the oil that lubricates the axles and other parts of the mechanism degrades, affecting the accuracy and functionality of the watch. Therefore, regular servicing of a mechanical watch is crucial to preserve its value and performance for many years to come.

Below, we’ll outline the process that every watch undergoes when it comes to us for servicing:

  • Disassembly of the watch: The first step is careful disassembly of the watch to access its internal components.
  • Cleaning of parts: After disassembly, the watch parts are meticulously cleaned to remove dirt, dust, and traces of oil.
  • Inspection of parts: Each part of the watch is inspected to identify potential problems or damage.
  • Replacement of worn-out parts: If necessary, worn-out or damaged parts such as springs, gears, axles, etc., are replaced.
  • Reassembly of parts: Each verified and cleaned part of the watch is carefully reassembled into its place.
    Lubrication: A crucial step is lubricating the watch mechanism to ensure smooth operation and reduce friction in every segment of the mechanism.
  • Adjustment and testing: The watch is then adjusted to bring its accuracy to factory parameters.
  • Water resistance check: The watch is tested for water resistance (dry and wet testing).
  • Final testing involves simulating wearing the watch on the wrist and monitoring its parameters for 48 hours.

Watch Polishing

Our professional watch polishing service offers high-quality polishing that will restore your watch to its original condition.

Below are the steps that each watch undergoes in our service:

  • Complete disassembly of the watch: separating the parts to be polished (case, bracelet, back cover, clasp, etc.) and carefully storing the parts that are not to be polished.
  • Parts cleaning: removing all accumulated dirt during wear in an ultrasonic bath.
  • Scratch removal: All surface scratches are eliminated. Depending on the depth and position, the method of removal may vary.
  • Lapping treatment: If the watch shape requires a special treatment of edges, this process enables it.
  • High polish: Every part of the watch is polished to a high gloss.
  • Satin finish: Parts of the watch that have a satin or matte finish (case parts, bracelet, clasp) are restored to their original state using this technique.
  • Parts cleaning: Re-cleaning the parts to remove any residues from the polishing process.
  • Assembly: Reassembling the watch parts and restoring it to its original state.
