Only an expert watchmaker can maintain the movement of a watch. If no part of the watch is broken, a qualified watchmaker, whether dedicated to the brand or generalist, performs a complete servicing of the movement. To do this, he performs the following operations:

  • Opening the case

  • Removing the movement from the case & disassembling the movement

  • Checking and cleaning of each part

  • Checking the dial elements (hands, indexes, etc.)

  • Reassembly and oiling of all components

  • Change of seals and closure of the case & water-resistance test

  • Control of chronometric performance

If necessary, the watchmaker can replace a defective part with a strictly identical part. The watchmaker can also intervene to restore the case and the glass (in the case of non-sapphire glasses) to their new appearance by appropriate polishing.
