Why you should service your luxury watch

High-end mechanical watches have hundreds of tiny components inside working together. Due to various factors, these movements can start to malfunction over time. These factors include dust, moisture, and temperature variations. 

Even if the watch has been sitting for a long time and is not put to work, the natural lubricants can degrade, affecting the watch’s accuracy and functionality. Therefore, periodic servicing is highly crucial to preserve the longevity, reliability, and value of your beloved timepiece.

Every watch that enters ChronoStreet gets a full diagnostic inspection, a transparent quote before any work begins, and a detailed service report when it’s done. Our watchmakers have over 25 years of experience working with Rolex, Audemars Piguet, Patek Philippe, Cartier, Breitling, Omega, and other high-end watches, using only genuine parts, backed by a service warranty. That’s why Dubai’s collectors keep coming back.

Signs that your watch needs servicing

While you have come across this page, it is a good time to check all your watches if they need servicing. Just like cars, when watches require servicing, they start showing signs. These signs can be as follows.

Inaccurate-Timekeeping

Inaccurate Timekeeping

Over a period of time, mechanical watches can start to lose or gain time. Known as time deviations or irregularities, these issues are caused due to the lack of smoothness inside the movement. The parts are not able to move in a certain speed. This can be fixed during the calibration process that takes place during a full service of the watch.

Power Reserve Indicator

Reduced Power Reserve

Certain issues with the mainspring or other components can lead to a decrease in power reserve. If your watch is guaranteed to have a power reserve of 48 hours and it barely lasts for 10 hours, you should definitely bring your watch to us.

Visible-Wear-or-Damage

Visible Wear or Damage

Any damage you see on the crown or any of the pushers of the watch will mean that you need to get your watch repaired. At the time of repair, you can also opt to get a full service to make sure your watch lasts longer.

Why Regular Watch Care is Important

Servicing your luxury watch:
  • Prevents costly damage by replacing old, dried lubricants.
  • Maintains precise accuracy by calibrating the delicate movement.
  • Preserves water resistance by replacing degraded rubber gaskets.
  • Protects long-term value for future resale or inheritance.
  • Catches hidden wear before micro-components break completely.
  • Removes microscopic debris that causes internal friction damage.
  • Ensures structural integrity through professional deep cleaning.

High-end watches from AP, Rolex, Patek, and Richard Mille to Omega and Cartier demand a preventative approach to hold their premium market value. Therefore, your baseline maintenance routine must include:

  • Annual pressure testing to protect the sealed case.
  • Gentle brushing to remove corrosive skin acids.
  • Complete movement lubrication every five years.
Skipping these steps can ruin the accuracy of your luxury watch and forces steep repair bills later. Maintain your collection properly, and your watches will outlast you.

How Often Should You Service Your Watch?

There is no strict guideline as to how often should you get your watch serviced. Brands like Rolex claim that their watches can run without servicing for as long as 10 years. But, these claims are based on lab experiments and not on real-life usage of the watch. In reality, you should consider getting your mechanical watch serviced every 3-5 years.

If it’s a Quartz mechanism, you do not really need extensive servicing. When your watch stops working, just bring your watch to us, and we will do a quick battery replacement. We can even open the watch fully and clean it from the inside just to ensure the longevity of the watch.

Our Expert Watch Servicing Process

Protect the value of your luxury timepiece with our comprehensive watch servicing process. We focus on transparency and precision at every stage.

Step 1: Inspection & Diagnosis

We open your watch to examine its mechanical caliber. Our professional watchmakers check the mainspring tension and test the current power reserve. We look for dried oils and worn-out pinions. This step also allows us to provide an accurate estimate for your luxury watch repairs.

Disassembly & Watch Cleaning

Step 2: Disassembly & Watch Cleaning

We strip down the entire movement to ensure every single gear, jewel bearing, and screw goes through a rigorous watch-cleaning protocol. We use specialized ultrasonic baths and industry-grade solutions to safely dissolve all old lubricants and microscopic metal dust.

Step 3: Assembly & Lubrication

Our experts rebuild the caliber by applying precise amounts of premium synthetic Swiss oils to specific high-friction components like the escapement and balance wheel. Proper lubrication guarantees a smooth action, reliable functionality, and accurate beat rate.

Step 4: Case Polishing & Sealing

We offer optional case and bracelet refinishing to restore the original factory look. Our team does this carefully without removing excess metal. Depending on the condition, our master technicians use specialized wheels and compounds for watch polishing.We install brand new rubber gaskets and O rings. We then perform strict pressure testing to guarantee the case is water resistant again.

Step 5: Final Quality Control

The assembled watch sits on a timegrapher machine so we can measure amplitude and beat error. We monitor the automatic winding module and timekeeping accuracy over several days. Our strict quality control ensures your luxury watch meets original factory chronometer standards.

Frequently Asked Questions About Watch Servicing

Typically, it is recommended to service a watch every 2-3 years. But we would say that it is good to get your watches checked once every year to ensure their proper functioning. 

Watch servicing includes disassembling a watch and giving it a thorough clean. It also involves testing and adjusting the mainsprings and other components. Lastly, everything is oiled up, closed, and tested again before leaving the service center.

For a regular service, it takes about 4-5 working days. In case any parts need changing, the service duration can take longer based on the amount of time it takes to source the part. 

Servicing prices can vary depending on which watch it is, what movement it uses, and the complexity of that movement. 

At ChronoStreet, we do not include polishing as a part of the service as there are some people who prefer to keep their watches as is. But, if you do want to polish your watch, we offer that as a separate service.

You can book a luxury watch service with ChronoStreet online through WhatsApp, via our official website, or by visiting our Dubai workshop directly.

Lubricants dry out. Friction increases. Parts wear down, destroying the movement and causing severe timekeeping inaccuracies.

Yes. Magnetic fields glue hairspring coils together, making the watch run very fast. Watchmakers completely demagnetize the movement during standard servicing.

No. Modern automatics have a slipping clutch mechanism. This prevents overwinding, though excessive manual winding can cause minor wear to the winding gears over years.

At Chronostreet, you receive a 1-year limited service warranty on all luxury watch services, repairs, and maintenance.

We specialize in servicing and authenticating “Holy Trinity” and tier-one manufacturers. Our primary expertise covers Rolex, Audemars Piguet (AP), Patek Philippe, and Richard Mille.
