Expert Pocket Watch Repair

Expert Pocket Watch Repair

Pocket watch repair and restoration is an area in which we specialise. Our Master Watchmaker is able to work on any timepiece, from simple pocket watch mechanisms to verge, fusee, and repeater movements. Whether it’s a Waltham pocket watch, an Elgin pocket watch, or even a Jaeger Le Coultre pocket watch, we have the expertise to handle your timepiece with precision and care.

Repairing a pocket watch that could be 150 years old requires a vast amount of knowledge and expertise to ensure the integrity of the timepiece is retained. In some cases, our Master Watchmaker may have to hand-make the required part. This requires exceptional skill. After the initial diagnosis to assess fully what is required to restore and repair your pocket watch back to its former glory, we will be able to fully discuss the current condition. We usually find that pocket watches have not been used for decades, and as you can imagine, bringing them back to life any mechanism that has been dormant for this long requires a great deal of expertise. Therefore, if a replacement part is required, the level of tolerance available is very low, and it is vital that the correct part is used. Only the most capable expert in watch repair should attempt pocket watch restoration work on your vintage and antique pocket watches.
