Watch movement parts

Three Services, Three Levels of Care

Each service is designed for a distinct need. We are glad to discuss which one fits your watch before you decide.

Our Approach to Each Piece

Every service begins with an inspection — not a cursory glance, but a proper examination of the movement under magnification, including the condition of the escapement, the mainspring, and the jewels. We assess what the watch actually needs, not what it would be convenient to sell.

From there, a written report is prepared. The owner reviews it, asks questions if needed, and agrees on the scope before we begin. This step takes time, but it eliminates the unpleasant surprises that are a common complaint about watch repair.

Service Two

Case Restoration & Refinish

฿9,300

A careful restoration of worn cases, lifting scratches and dings while keeping the watch's original geometry intact. We discuss the preferred finish first and refinish only as far as the owner wishes, often retaining honest patina where it adds character.

What is included:

Finish discussion and agreement before any work

Standards Applied Across All Services

Secure Piece Handling

All watches are logged on intake and stored securely. No piece is accessible to unauthorised persons during service.

Grade-Appropriate Lubricants

Watchmaker-specified oils and greases are used. No substitutions. Lubricants are selected for each movement type.

Calibrated Timing Equipment

Rate measurements are taken on a maintained timing machine. Results are accurate and repeatable.

Written Agreement Before Work

Every service starts with an agreed written assessment. No assumptions are made about proceeding.

Single-Person Responsibility

Each piece is assigned to one technician throughout its service. There is a clear point of accountability.

Documentation on Return

A written record accompanies every completed piece — useful for the owner's reference and the watch's future history.

Not Sure Which Service Applies?

Write to us or call, and we will look at the watch and let you know what we think. No commitment required at that point.
