Movement Servicing
A full service includes complete disassembly of the movement, with all individual parts cleaned in several stages to remove old oils and dirt.
Each component is then inspected under a microscope for wear and replaced if necessary (replacement parts are charged separately). The movement is carefully reassembled and lubricated with high-quality Swiss oils.
After assembly, several tests are carried out, including timekeeping checks on a timegrapher and regulation of the movement.
Waterproofing can be added to a full service (€30): all gaskets are checked and replaced if necessary, are then re-greased, and the watch is pressure tested for water resistance up to 60 m / 6 bar.
Using only Swiss-standard watchmaking oils and greases. Ensuring longevity of the movement.
Pressure testing to 6 bar/60 meters.
Servicing steps and duration
Turnaround time is 1-3 weeks depending on complexity of the movement and whether parts have to be ordered.
