Watch Servicing & Care
Caring for Your Luxury Watch
Luxury watches are precision instruments designed to operate for many years with proper care. Regular servicing and maintenance ensure your timepiece continues to perform accurately while preserving its appearance and value.
At Clarindon Jewellers, we recommend periodic servicing to maintain the performance and longevity of your watch.
Why Watch Servicing Matters
Mechanical watches contain many moving components that experience natural wear over time. Regular servicing ensures that these components remain properly lubricated and functioning correctly.
A professional watch service typically includes:
-
Disassembly of the movement
-
Cleaning of components
-
Replacement of worn parts
-
Lubrication and reassembly
-
Regulation and testing
This process helps maintain the precision and reliability of the watch.
Recommended Service Intervals
Most watch manufacturers recommend servicing mechanical watches approximately every 3–5 years, though this may vary depending on the model and usage.
Quartz watches typically require battery replacement and periodic maintenance to ensure water resistance and long-term performance.
Everyday Watch Care
Simple care can help preserve your watch between services.
Recommended care tips include:
-
Avoid exposing your watch to strong magnetic fields
-
Protect it from extreme temperatures
-
Clean the case and bracelet periodically
-
Ensure the crown is properly secured
These steps help maintain the appearance and functionality of your watch.
Professional Servicing
For authorised watch brands, servicing should ideally be performed through authorised service centres or trusted specialists. This ensures genuine parts are used and manufacturer standards are maintained.
Clarindon Jewellers can assist customers with guidance and support regarding watch servicing and maintenance.
