WATCH SERVICES AT BUCHERER

Much of the fascination of a watch often lies in the complex movement inside the case. It takes meticulous care and maintenance to keep it working properly and telling the time accurately for many years. Our expert watch services meet these needs. Ideally, you should have a certified specialist check your watch every two years and overhaul it completely every five years.

OUR RECOMMENDATION

We recommend that you have our certified specialists check your watch every two years. Every five years, we will completely overhaul your timepiece. Our watch services also include many additional services to ensure a long service life for your watch.

If your watch is broken and stops working, you are in good hands in our service centres. We are also happy to have an expert replace the battery or adjust your mechanical watch.

BATTERY CHANGE

If the seconds hand of your electronic watch in EOL mode only moves every four seconds or the watch has come to a complete standstill, it is time to have the battery changed by an authorised specialist retailer.

Our experts open the case with special tools. First, they clean the electrical contacts. After replacing the battery, they close the case using the appropriate tool as per the manufacturer specifications.

The specialists measure the current consumption and check that the watch is waterproof according to the manufacturer’s standards. Afterwards, they clean the case and strap before checking the strap and clasp, adjusting them as necessary.

ADJUSTING A MECHANICAL WATCH

If your watch is too fast or slow despite regular maintenance, our expert consultants or watchmakers will solve the problem. They will find out whether an adjustment could optimise the watch’s accuracy.

First, our employees check all of the movement functions. They use special tools to open the case and adjust the accuracy. Either the moment of inertia of the balance rim is influenced by a special key or the length of the hairspring is changed by moving the limiting pins.

In addition, they make sure the watch is waterproof, and clean the case and strap. Finally, they check the accuracy on a simulator for 48 to 72 hours.

SERVICING

Every four to six years, you should have your mechanical watch completely overhauled. For electronic watches, it suffices to have them overhauled every six to eight years, but you should have them overhauled sooner if you notice that a battery is only lasting for about another six months.

Our special watch services also include having trained surface finishers carefully sand and polish the exterior of your watch. After servicing, your watch will shine like new.
