When servicing is the right answer
This service suits watches that are complete but no longer running correctly, especially where the goal is reliable performance rather than cosmetic restoration.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if my mechanical watch needs a service?
Common signs include poor timekeeping, weak power reserve, intermittent stopping, or an unknown service history.
Do you service both automatic and manual-wind watches?
Yes. Both automatic and manual-wind mechanical watches are suitable for enquiry.
Is a service the same as a restoration?
Not always. Servicing focuses on movement function and reliability, while restoration can also include broader cosmetic or historical considerations.
