Overhaul & Detail Watch Service at Gray and Sons Jewelers
Since its introduction around 1860, Chopard has climbed its way up to being one of the world’s top watch and jewelry manufacturers. Debuting in 1993, the Chopard Happy Sport watch collection was rapidly acclaimed by consumers. Being the first watch collection to include diamonds on a stainless steel case cohesively and beautifully quickly became Chopard’s trademark.
Founded by Louis-Ulysse Chopard, the Swiss company found extreme success with consumers in their Happy Sport watch models. So much so, Chopards continued to manufacture variations of the same Happy Sport watches with different themes such as ‘Happy Fish’, ‘Happy Snowflake’, ‘Happy Joaillerie’, and others. Today’s featured watch is a beautiful edition of the Chopard Happy Sport ‘Happy Hearts’.
With a quartz-powered movement in an 18k & stainless steel case, the Chopard Happy Hearts features an elegant mother-of-pearl dial with a soft-pinkish hue. Atop the dial, between two seamless crystals, sit a combination of round cut and pave-heart ‘Happy Diamonds’ stations.
Available in case widths 32.5mm to 38mm, Chopard Happy Heart watches have combinations of 18k and stainless steel cases and bezels, some featuring diamonds and other precious stones like rubies, sapphires, and emeralds. Consumers can customize the casualness of their watch by placing it on a rubber strap, leather strap, or metal bracelet. The opportunities to fall in love with the Chopard Happy Hearts watch collections are endless.

Gray & Sons - Top Watch Repair Service Center For High Caliber Watches

First things first, we open the case back of the watch and look for any rusted or damaged parts that need sourcing. In this case, the movement was in good condition, it just needed some maintenance. Once we’ve diagnosed the problem on the watch and know 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 final 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. Prior to returning the client their watch, we must execute a final quality control process to ensure the watch is running as accurately as possible.
In this quality control, 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 date, hour, and minute hands. If both timekeeping and water tests pass, the watch gets put on our winding wheel for observation where it rotates and mimics the jerks and movements of the wrist for 6-8 hours. The watch must then rest and run for the next 20-30 hours unbothered, this tests the power reserve of the watch.
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.
