The frequency of watch servicing depends on several factors, including the type of watch, how often you wear it, and the environment in which you wear it.

For optimal performance, we recommend servicing your mechanical or automatic watch every 2-3 years, which ensures the intricate mechanical parts are cleaned, lubricated, and inspected for wear and tear. While quartz watches require less frequent servicing than their mechanical counterparts, we still recommend a check-up every 2-5 years.

If you notice any of these, prompt action is crucial and will avoid costly repairs.

Yes, an overwound watch can be repaired. Overwinding occurs when the mainspring is wound too tightly, causing the movement to stop functioning correctly. Repair typically involves carefully disassembling the watch, releasing the tension in the mainspring, and inspecting for any damage caused by the excessive winding. In most cases, the watch can be restored to full functionality by addressing any issues and reassembling the movement.
