Our Process 

Our Watch Glass Replacement Process

We stock a wide range of replacement watch glasses in multiple sizes and profiles, including domed, flat, and curved- to ensure an exact fit for your watch brand and model. For vintage or discontinued timepieces, we offer a bespoke custom-cut watch glass service when original replacements are no longer available.

1. Assessment

We begin by carefully inspecting your watch to assess the extent of damage and identify the correct watch crystal type (acrylic, mineral, or sapphire). We match the replacement to the original manufacturer’s specifications wherever possible, ensuring the correct fit, finish, and preservation of your watch’s value.

2. Glass Removal & Preparation

The damaged or broken watch glass is safely removed using specialist tools. We then clean and prepare the case to ensure no debris or glass fragments remain before fitting the new crystal.

3. Fitting & Replacement

Your new watch glass or crystal is expertly fitted to ensure a secure, accurate installation. For vintage or discontinued models, we can custom-cut the glass to achieve a precise fit, maintaining the watch’s original appearance and integrity.

4. Resealing & Pressure Testing

For water-resistant watches, we replace or lubricate seals and carry out a pressure test to confirm the watch meets its original water-resistance rating. This ensures the newly fitted glass is properly sealed, helping to protect the movement from moisture and water ingress.
