Must read
All the experience we have come from the point of view as a watchmaker, being able to demount a watch from it's baseplate to the little incabloc systems of the watch, gives us the amazing opportunity to know what's good and what not.
To start originality is key for us, buying and encquiring a watch with all original parts gives us the opportunity to restore the piece with respect for the ones who made and designed it.
Once the first step is completed our watchmakers start to service the watch, servicing the movement, changing gaskets, repairing original parts and making sure the history of the watch stays intact and is ready to make new story's with you in it's most optimal shape.
Warranty
Every watch is serviced by our team of watchmakers and comes with a 1 year warranty on it's functionality.
Great service as always.
