Watchmaking service

A specialist watchmaker will first take a close look at the reason why the watch was sent for service - whether it is a technical fault, preventive maintenance or battery replacement. He then identifies the specific model using a unique serial number, which serves as a "fingerprint" for each piece. This allows for an individual and precisely targeted approach to each watch in accordance with its design, history and the specifics of the brand.

During the service intervention, the watch case is carefully opened and then all its parts are removed - including the glass, back cover, lunette, seals and other elements. Each component is thoroughly inspected, cleaned and prepared for reassembly.

The watch case is thoroughly cleaned by immersion in special cleaning solutions that are designed for ultrasonic cleaning. This gentle but extremely effective process can remove even fine dirt, grease and deposits from hard-to-reach areas without damaging the surface or materials. The ultrasonic bath restores the original shine and cleanliness of the case and is an important part of quality watch care, especially for luxury watches where every detail matters.

After all servicing tasks are completed, the movement - including the dial and hands - is carefully placed back into the case. This is followed by the complete assembly of all the components of the watch, with attention being paid to the precision, cleanliness and functional integrity of each part. Each step of this final assembly is carried out under the experienced hands of a watchmaker to ensure that the watch not only functions perfectly, but also retains its aesthetic and technical standards.

At the end of the servicing process, we perform a thorough inspection, which includes a careful check of all the technical functions of the watch - the accuracy of the movement, the correct functioning of the chronograph, the date and other complications. At the same time, we also assess the aesthetic condition of the watch to ensure that the surface, glass and other visible parts meet the highest quality standards. Through this comprehensive examination, we guarantee that the watch will leave the service not only fully functional, but also with a flawless appearance, ready for immediate wear.

Disassembly of the case and its individual components (slide, back cap, lunette, various seals, etc.) and separation of the movement.

During this phase of the service, the machine is carefully and systematically disassembled into all its individual parts. This detailed disassembly allows the watchmaker to thoroughly inspect each component for wear, damage or dirt. The disassembly into parts is essential for subsequent precision cleaning, lubrication and possible repairs, which guarantees optimum functionality and a long service life of the watch. Each part is handled with the utmost care during this process to maintain its integrity and precision.

Polishing the case to restore the original shine of a watch that has been worn for a long time. This process removes minor scratches and signs of wear, allowing the watch to regain its fresh and elegant appearance. Professional polishing is an important part of watch care, ensuring that your timepiece will still look like new after many years of use.

Cleaning the housing in special baths designed for ultrasonic treatment, which thoroughly removes dirt even from the narrowest and hardest to reach places. This gentle and highly effective process restores the original cleanliness and shine of the watch without damaging the surface or fine details. Ultrasonic cleaning is a key part of professional maintenance that extends the life and aesthetic value of your watch.

Each component of the disassembled movement is carefully placed in special containers designed for small watch components. This process ensures maximum protection of delicate mechanical parts and facilitates their organization during assembly. The use of individual containers helps to prevent damage, loss or contamination by dust and dirt, which is key to maintaining the high precision and longevity of the movement.

These containers are then placed in special baths inside the ultrasonic cleaning equipment. This equipment uses high-frequency vibration to thoroughly remove microscopic dirt, oil residues and dust from even the smallest and least accessible parts of the machine. This process ensures maximum cleanliness of each component before reassembly.

Reassemble the case and replace the necessary components (glass, buttons, tube, gasket, etc.). After careful cleaning and inspection of all parts of the watch, reassembly follows. The case is meticulously assembled with the utmost precision, replacing key components such as the sapphire crystal, pushers, crown tube and gasket to ensure a perfect seal and long life of the watch.

After careful cleaning of the individual components of the machine, it is then precisely reassembled, where all parts are placed with the utmost precision. Each gear, bearing and spring is assembled to ensure smooth operation of the mechanism. As part of the process, lubrication of key parts is carried out, which is essential to minimise friction and wear. The use of high quality watchmaking oils helps to extend the life of the movement and maintain its flawless performance.

Assembly of the movement (including dial and hands) into the case and complete reassembly of the watch. After careful assembly and checking of the individual components of the movement, the movement is precisely seated in the case, where it is then fixed and correctly centred. This stage also includes the assembly of the dial and hands, which are installed with the utmost precision to ensure perfect alignment and smooth operation.

Final technical (accuracy, power reserve, water resistance) and aesthetic checks of the watch according to the brand's specifications. Once the watch is fully assembled, it is followed by thorough technical testing, which includes verification of the accuracy of the movement, checking the power reserve, and a thorough waterproofing test to ensure that the watch meets the highest standards and norms of the brand. This process also includes an aesthetic check, which verifies the perfection of all visible elements - from the alignment of the dial and hands to the quality of the finish and the precise setting of precious materials. Every detail is carefully evaluated to ensure that the watch not only functions flawlessly, but also achieves a visual excellence that matches the brand's prestigious name.
