Enthusiast watches deserve movement-specific intake
A SARB, Alpinist-era model or older Prospex may be worth servicing even when a cheaper movement swap would be possible on a lower-value watch.
What changes with age
Lubricant condition, wear, previous service quality, moisture history and parts availability become more important as the watch ages.
Common 6R15 complaints
Rate instability, poor reserve, stopped movement, winding issues and watches that are simply overdue for service.
Our approach
We treat the watch as a complete object, not just a caliber. Originality, condition and what the owner wants from the watch determine whether we recommend service, targeted repair or another path.
How the mail-in process works
Submit the watch details and photos first. If the repair appears appropriate, we provide current shipping instructions. Final scope and price follow physical inspection, and billable repair work begins only after authorization under the service terms.
