How it works

The same process, whatever the service

1

Receive & assess

Your watch arrives, is logged, and placed in a labelled tray. We examine it and prepare a written assessment.

2

Share findings

We contact you with what we found — in plain terms. You read the assessment and decide how you want to proceed.

3

Carry out the work

With your agreement confirmed, the agreed service is carried out carefully. Any new findings trigger another conversation before action.

4

Test & return

We verify the outcome, prepare your written record, and contact you for collection. The paperwork leaves with the watch.

Best for

Wind & Accuracy Tune

A watch you wear daily that has drifted from comfortable accuracy. No cosmetic issues — just the running needs attention.

Best for

Comfort Fitting & Refresh

A watch that fits awkwardly or feels tired on the wrist. Running well, but needs a little attention to how it wears and looks.

Best for

Restoration Package

A watch that has not been serviced in five or more years, or one with personal or monetary significance worth a thorough investment.

Across all services

Standards that apply to every job

Secure handling

Every piece is logged, labelled, and held in a cushioned tray from arrival to collection. No exceptions.

Written documentation

A written service record is prepared for every job. Figures, findings, and work carried out — in plain language.

Consent at every step

Work never proceeds beyond what was agreed. If something new emerges, we contact you before continuing.

Climate consideration

Service decisions factor in Phuket's tropical climate — lubricant selection, seal recommendations, and storage conditions.

Movement services include a post-completion run test. Timing is verified before the watch is returned to you.

Aftercare included

Guidance on how to look after your watch after the service — adapted to the work done and the watch in question.
