What does a watch service involve?

Our watch technicians will check for signs of damage, rust or wear and tear, stripping the watch down completely to oil, grease and clean all the moving parts. All these parts, except for the dial & hands, are put into a watch-cleaning basket and then into an ultrasonic cleaning machine. The watch case and back are cleaned in a separate ultrasonic tank. The watch is then re-assembled by a similar reversed process with all relevant parts being greased and oiled to the manufacturer's requirements and guidelines.
