STEP ONE - DIAGNOSIS
Before servicing, a highly-skilled and trained technician will conduct a thorough diagnostic examination of your watch. Utilizing state-of-the-art equipment, the technician electronically tests and visually examines your watch movement. This effort will allow the technician to determine exactly what servicing procedures will be required to bringing your watch to its original high-performance standard.
STEP TWO - SERVICING
To ensure its harmonious functioning, your precision movement depends on different types of lubricants. Changes in the viscosity of the oil can impede timekeeping through friction wear.It has, therefore, always been our policy at World Time to recommend to owners that their watch be cleaned and oiled, depending on their wearing habits, about every five years. Each of the movement's parts are inspected for wear and worn parts are replaced. Dried oils are removed and specially formulated lubricants are applied. Finally, the movement's delicate balance wheel is calibrated to ensure precise timekeeping.
STEP THREE- CLEANING AND POLISHING
The same attention to detail that was devoted to the creation of your watch is applied to the cleaning and polishing of your case and bracelet. After your bracelet has been examined and serviced as necessary, the watch case and bracelet are refinished by hand and then ultrasonically cleaned using a seven-stage process. All this to ensure that your time peice will retain all the quality and brilliance it had the first day you wore it.
STEP FOUR - PASSING THE TEST
Only after your watch passes three critical tests will it be returned to you with full confidence that it is in peak working condition. A pressure test will verify the cases protective features. It will then be attached to a wrist simulator to confirm that its self winding mechanism is in perfect working order. And, in the final test, it will have to satisfy the experienced eye of a highly trained watch technician.
