Roger Dubuis Repair Services
Gray & Sons - Top Watch Repair Service Center For High Caliber Watches
When we perform a full overhaul and detailing service on a watch, it involves a meticulous and time-consuming process. Firstly, we open the case back to inspect for any rusted or damaged parts that may require replacement. In this particular case, the movement needed cleaning and re-lubrication, while the external case had scratches that needed polishing.
Every watch sold at Gray and Sons Jewelers gets a full overhaul and detail; this includes the dismantling and servicing of the watch’s inner mechanism along with cleaning and polishing of the watch’s outer case and metal bracelet.
Once we’ve diagnosed the problem on the watch and know if and what extra watch parts are needed, our watchmaker takes apart the watch piece by piece and prepares it for overhauling.
The watch movement, crystal , and watch stem are separated from the head and bracelet . The case and bracelet are given to our head polisher while our watchmakers begin working on the movement. Piece by piece, our watchmaker begins dismantling the watch’s mechanism and evaluating every piece.
Once the watch parts that need sourcing are identified, our watchmaker prepares the timepiece’s screws, springs, pivots, and plates to be cleaned and sources the parts that are needed. We use six different cleaning solutions in an ultrasonic machine to make sure all dirt, dust, and dried oils are extracted from every crevice within the watch parts.
Once the watch parts are cleaned, the watchmaker starts to reassemble the movement while adding lubricants wherever designated and replacing all the gaskets for water resistance.
This tedious process usually takes anywhere from two to five hours per watch! Of course, assuming the watchmaker isn’t interrupted and all parts continue functioning.
While Gray and Sons’ watchmaker worked on the movement, we had our polisher give this watch a light polish around the case to remove the minor scratches. He then put the case in our ultrasonic machine for a bath and finally to rinse and dry.
Once our watchmaker puts together the movement and re-cases the watch, it's time for the final steps of our repair process. Before returning the client their watch, we must execute a final quality control process to ensure the watch is running as new as possible.
In this quality control, we measure the watch’s amplitude using special machines that listen to the heartbeat of the watch. We also test the watch’s water resistance with a machine that simulates a deep plunge using air pressure to check for leaks.
Additionally, we check that all complications are functioning fully; in this case the hour and minute hands, sub-second dial, date window, and chronograph timers. If both timekeeping and water tests pass, the watch gets put on our winding wheel for observation where it rotates and mimics the movement of the wrist for 6-8 hours. The watch must then rest and run for the next 20-30 hours; this ensures the automatic rotor that powers the reserve is at optimal performance.
Also, with this machine, we can analyze the durability of the watch and make sure the movement is functioning and not startled by any natural jagged movements of the wrist. Our complete restoration process can take up to 8 weeks.
