Watch Repair
Heirloom quality watches may not operate at peak function—and can stop working entirely without regular care and service. And although you’ll find all kinds of quick-fix watch shops and even online instructions for how to repair watches yourself, we don’t recommend trusting your fine timepiece to anyone but a professional. Rolex built the Persin and Robbin watch repair shop, complete with state-of-the-art tools that meet the impeccable standards one would expect from a company renowned for excellence.
In our shop, our Certified Watchmaker can handle everything from a simple battery change, while you wait, to complete overhauls of all types of quartz and mechanical watches, watchband sizing and adjustments, new straps and bracelets, link removal, timing calibration, stem/crown replacement, movement replacement and case repair. We also certify diving watches for proper water and pressure requirements.
Mechanical watches, in particular, require service approximately every five years because they—like the engines in luxury automobiles that don’t get regular oil changes—will dry out, which will affect the accuracy of the watch and cause parts to wear. Like a car, a watch may run for a long time without service but, eventually, the lack of preventive maintenance results in reduced function and more costly repairs.
If you have a watch that hasn’t been worn for years—perhaps one you’ve inherited or found in an antique shop—it is probably in need of service. Regula
