How Do You Authenticate a Vintage Watch?

Posted on October 26, 2024 by Stephen Irvine

How to Tell a Real Watch from a Fake

The authentication of vintage watches is a growing concern among collectors and enthusiasts, especially with the prevalence of counterfeit models from popular brands like Rolex. Proper authentication relies on expertise, experience, and a systematic approach to ensure the watch is genuine. Here’s how professionals authenticate vintage timepieces.

Start with a Visual Inspection

The first step is a detailed visual assessment of the watch. Experts evaluate whether the quality aligns with what’s expected from the brand. Key elements include:

Dial Quality: Authentic watches often feature finely crafted dials with precise printing.
Hands: The style and finish should match the brand’s known characteristics.
Case Construction: Materials and craftsmanship are inspected for authenticity.
Crown Type: For instance, a water-resistant watch claiming 200m resistance should have a screw-down crown. A mismatch is a red flag.

“If a watch claims water resistance of 200m but lacks a screw-down crown, it’s a strong indicator you may be dealing with a replica.”

Serial Numbers and Cross-Referencing

Brands like Tag Heuer and Rolex often include serial and model numbers on their watches. Using tools like the Tag Heuer Extranet, professionals can verify these numbers and cross-reference details such as the dial, hands, and movement. However, it’s crucial to note that serial numbers alone don’t guarantee authenticity, as counterfeiters sometimes replicate genuine numbers.

Inspecting the Movement

Examining the movement is one of the most critical steps in authentication. High-quality Swiss movements are often replicated with increasing precision, making this step challenging even for experts. Professionals look for signs that align with the brand’s craftsmanship and design. This process often requires the expertise of trained watchmakers and valuers.

The Role of Expertise

Authentication of vintage watches can be highly complex, especially for high-end brands. Beyond the visual and technical checks, experience and access to industry knowledge play a pivotal role. Experts can draw upon databases, historical records, and their familiarity with the nuances of vintage models to determine authenticity.

Basic Checks for Buyers

If you’re considering purchasing a vintage watch, start with the following:

Quality Check: Does it feel like a premium item?
Source Legitimacy: Was it purchased from a reputable dealer?
Online Comparison: Can you find similar models online with consistent details?

Even if these checks align, professional evaluation is recommended to confirm authenticity.

Arrange a Professional Valuation

For a comprehensive assessment, it’s best to consult WE Clark Watch Repairs, who offer specialised and expert watch valuation services.

Summary

Authenticating a vintage watch requires careful inspection, technical expertise, and experience. While serial numbers and visual checks can provide clues, examining the movement and seeking professional advice is essential. Trust experts with industry knowledge and the right tools to ensure your vintage watch is genuine and accurately valued.

How Are Watch Mainsprings Made?

Posted on October 5, 2024 by Stephen Irvine

The mainspring is the powerhouse of a mechanical watch, storing and releasing energy to drive the timekeeping mechanism. Whether wound manually by rotating the crown or automatically via the rotor, the mainspring’s reliability depends on its precise and intricate manufacturing process. Regular watch maintenance and servicing are essential to ensure the mainspring, and the entire movement, operates smoothly, preserving the quality and lifespan of your timepiece. Here’s a closer look at how these essential components are made.

Choosing the Right Material

Historically, mainsprings were crafted from carbon steel, but modern advancements have led to the use of specialised alloys like Nivarox and Elinvar. These materials offer superior elasticity, resistance to corrosion, and durability, ensuring long-lasting performance.

“Modern mainsprings are designed to withstand the test of time, offering unmatched reliability and precision in every tick.”

Preparing the Metal Strip

The process begins with flat strips of metal, meticulously processed to exact dimensions. The thickness, width, and length are critical, as they directly influence the mainspring’s energy storage and compatibility with the barrel housing it within the movement.

Rolling and Heat Treatments

The strips are rolled to achieve the desired thickness using specialised machinery that maintains uniformity. Following this, the material undergoes heat treatments to relieve internal stresses and enhance its mechanical properties.

Shaping the Mainspring

Once cut into lengths, the strips are coiled into a spiral shape. This delicate process varies based on the specific type of mainspring being produced and requires precision to avoid defects that could compromise performance.

Hardening and Tempering

Heat treatments harden the material to optimise its ability to store and release energy efficiently. A tempering process follows, where the springs are heated at lower temperatures and slowly cooled, fine-tuning their hardness and elasticity to endure constant winding cycles.

Polishing for Perfection

Surface imperfections are removed through an automated polishing process, ensuring the mainsprings are smooth and free from defects that could cause friction or stress, which might lead to premature failure.

Quality Control

Every mainspring undergoes rigorous testing for dimensional accuracy, surface finish, elasticity, energy storage capacity, and fatigue resistance. Only those meeting strict standards are approved, ensuring top-notch performance and reliability.

The Foundation of Mechanical Precision

The intricate process of crafting a mainspring showcases the blend of science and engineering behind every mechanical watch. With advanced materials and meticulous quality control, mainsprings are built to power watches with enduring elegance and precision.

Summary

The manufacturing of watch mainsprings is a highly specialised process requiring precision engineering to ensure reliability and performance. Modern mainsprings are made from advanced alloys like Nivarox or Elinvar for superior elasticity, corrosion resistance, and durability. The process begins with selecting and preparing the metal strip, carefully controlling its dimensions through rolling and heat treatments to achieve the desired properties. The material is then cut, shaped into coils, and further treated with high-temperature heating and tempering to optimise hardness and elasticity. After polishing to eliminate imperfections, rigorous quality control ensures each mainspring meets exacting standards for energy storage, elasticity, and fatigue resistance.

Breitling Chronomat Evolution Chronograph Service and Repair

Posted on September 3, 2024 by Stephen Irvine

We offer a full range of repairs from our in-house watch workshop. These include part jobs like battery changes and glass replacements through to full servicing of the vast majority of brands including Omega, Tag Heuer, Longines, Rolex and, as in this instance, Breitling.

For this job we are working on a Breitling Chronomat Evolution Automatic Chronograph. This watch clearly has some kind of fault, as it is not working on arrival with us. The hands move freely and the date changes. The most likely fault is a broken mainspring, though we need to fully disassemble the movement to access the mainspring barrel to confirm this diagnosis. This is due to nature of this chronograph movement (a customised ETA 7750) – we need to remove all the chronograph work in order to fully access the mainspring barrel which lies underneath in the very depths of the mechanism.

During the course of movement disassembly it becomes apparent this watch hasn’t seen a watchmaker for some time as the oils and greases used to ensure correct functioning of the movement have started to dry up.

As we anticipated, the mainspring was found to be broken. The mainspring acts as the source of power for the watch, so a broken mainspring means a watch is not going to work. We are able to order any part to repair these movements, so we fitted a brand new mainspring. Unless in exceptional circumstances we replace the mainspring as part of a service. This ensures we have a source of power in excellent condition.

When servicing and repairing the movement it is fully disassembled and each part is checked and cleaned – going through a manual cleaning process before a cycle in our Elma Solvex RM automatic cleaning machine. Once parts are completely clean and dried, we can commence reassembly of the movement. During reassembly we follow the manufacturers technical guidelines in terms of oil and grease usage, as well as the use of other treatments such as epilame.

Alongside the movement repairs we give the case a thorough clean. We also fit replacement seals where appropriate before testing the complete case – minus the movement – in both a wet pressure tester and a dry tester to confirm water resistance. We can now reunite all elements of the watch. With the movement refitted and everything checked on the timegrapher, we can close the case back before a final dry pressure test.

With the works completed we now test the watch using an Elma Cyclomotion watch winding machine, as well as testing in static positions and for the correct functioning of all features including the chronograph and quick date change. After the testing period is complete this fantastic Breitling Chronomat Evolution Automatic Chronograph can be reunited with its owner.

How long can a watch last without servicing?

Posted on August 15, 2024 by Stephen Irvine

Watches can last for varying amounts of time before being serviced, depending on various factors including the type of watch, how often it is used and under what circumstances. Generally speaking a mechanical watch should be serviced every 3-5 years. This is because the oils and greases which allow a watch movement to work properly need to be replaced. If these are left for any longer, they may begin to degrade, leading to increased wear in the movement and potentially affecting timekeeping. While a watch may keep going for many years beyond its recommended service interval, parts will be wearing out and this will lead to a much higher repair bill in the long term when it eventually does stop.

It may be a watch will last for well over a decade working and keeping time without a service. This may lead to the incorrect conclusion that there are no issues with the movement. Watch movements are complex mechanisms relying on various wheels, springs and other components. These parts are often extremely small and are prone to wearing out when oils and greases are not fresh. A watch movement also has numerous parts which are nothing to do with the timekeeping – these may relate to the winding, hand setting, automatic winding, chronograph, date change or any number of other areas.

If a watch continues to work and keep time despite having not been serviced in many years, this is more a testament to the genius of the design of a watch movement then a sign your watch is ok. When we work on watches which have not been properly maintained, they often need numerous replacement parts. This means the cost of repair is considerably higher than if the watch had been correctly maintained.

It’s even more important to stay on top of maintenance if you have a vintage watch. Parts for certain vintage models are increasingly hard to obtain and are becoming increasingly expensive. Some parts may even not be available at all, which means we need to make parts to repair these watches. One way to avoid all this unnecessary additional expense is to simply adhere to 3-5 year service intervals.

Quartz watches are a little different to their mechanical counterparts. Quartz watches have less moving parts and use much finer oils in lower quantities. This means service intervals are longer. As quartz watches rely on batteries, our advise is to take your watch to a watchmaker like us for the battery replacement. While replacing the battery we can test the movement to confirm it is operating within the manufacturers tolerances, and if not then we can go down the servicing route. If pushed to give an approximate timescale for a quartz service interval, we suggest 5-7 years, though it really does vary based on the quartz movement.

The conditions a watch is used in may also impact service intervals. Watches which are frequently exposed to extremes of heat, dusty or humid environments will undoubtedly need attention from a watchmaker on a more regular basis. If you use your watch in water it is important to have the seals checked frequently – we suggest every 12 months.

Our advice is to have your mechanical watch serviced every 3-5 years, and to have your quartz watch checked when it needs a replacement battery, but with 5-7 years as a rough guideline. Leaving service intervals for much longer than the suggested period causes increased wear throughout the mechanism, which will only cause a higher repair bill in the long-term, as more parts will need to be replaced.

Is your Watch Overdue a Service or Repair?

Tag Heuer Carrera Service and Repair

Posted on July 14, 2024 by Stephen Irvine

We have a fantastic Tag Heuer Carrera with us today for a full watch repair and service. The first models to bear the Carrera name went to market in the mid-1960s and this range is named after the Carrera Panamerica race – so Carrera watches are rooted in the history of motor racing and sports.

This particular model is relatively modern – from within the past 20 years – though it arrived with us in poor condition. Initial inspection identifies some obvious faults with the watch. Notably it is not working and missing the crown and stem. On examination of the movement it clearly hasn’t been serviced in many years, as oils and greases have dried up and wear is identified in various components including the reversing wheels and rotor bearing.

To get this watch back to excellent order it needs significant intervention. It needs a full service with all worn parts changed. New seals are needed, as well as a new crown. The case and bracelet are very scratched and scuffed, so these will be refinished too.

To service a watch it is completely stripped down before the movement parts are thoroughly cleaned. We clean parts both by hand and then using our Elma specialist watch movement cleaning machine – this way we can be certain everything is in good order and as clean as we can possibly make it. During disassembly and our initial “pre-clean” we check each component is in good order. Anything worn needs to be replaced.

The movement powering this watch is a Tag Heuer calibre 5, which is based on the ETA 2824-2 – a very reliable, quality Swiss movement. As a Tag Heuer Authorised Workshop we can obtain any parts needed to repairs these watches.

After cleaning, we can commence the movement rebuild and oiling. We use a range of oils and greases to lubricate the different parts of the watch movement as per the Tag Heuer technical guidance. Once the movement is complete, the dial and hands are refitted.

To refinish the case and bracelet we use our variable speed polishing machine alongside a variety of polishing mops and compounds. The case and bracelet are fully disassembled prior to polishing – that means we separate the bezel, case middle and back, remove the case tube and glass, and remove the bracelet end links. We then work through each part, carefully refinishing each in progressive stages. Everything is ultrasonically cleaned before we can begin a final rebuild.

The case is put together with brand new seals before we can refit the freshly serviced movement. We need to adjust the length of the stem for the case, so this is cut down to length and fitted. With the watch cased up we conduct a final test on the timegrapher before closing the case back and pressure testing for water resistance. Our Sigma pressure testing machine is capable of testing watches up to a rating of 300m – more than sufficient for this model, which passed to its original water resistance rating of 50m.

All that’s left to do is thorough testing of the watch over a number of days before we contact our client to arrange return. Another job well done!

Black Dial Omega Seamaster Servicing and Repair

Posted on December 8, 2023 by David Clark

The Omega Seamaster is an iconic watch and one we see regularly in our workshop. The history of the model can be traced back to the 1940s and the brand’s military and professional watches produced for the British Royal Navy during World War II. These watches were highly durable and water-resistant, essential qualities for military personnel. Modern versions of the Seamaster are often linked to James Bond, who has worn an Omega Seamaster in various films since 1995.

This client’s watch arrived showing some water ingress as the glass was steaming up. The watch was not working and clearly in need of work.

Inspection of the movement revealed some damage caused by water, though the water ingress was luckily relatively minor. These Omega Seamaster watches are powered by the Omega calibre 1120 movement – an automatic mechanical watch movement of excellent quality. This is a modified version of a movement produced by ETA – one of the top watch movement manufacturers. The modifications are designed to improve performance, with 23 jewels and a three arm Glucydur balance amongst the modifications made to the base movement.

To repair the watch it is first fully disassembled and each part inspected. Wear was found on some train wheels and the reverser. We also noted too much endshake on the fourth wheel and a mainspring in need of replacement. The disassembled movement is run through our specialist watch movement cleaning machine, while the case and bracelet are cleaned in a separate ultrasonic cleaner. After cleaning, the movement is carefully reassembled and oiled with replacement parts fitted. To correct the endshake problem we adjust the fourth wheel jewel on the train bridge using a Horia jewelling tool. Once assembled the dial and hands are then refitted, before the complete movement is fitted into the case.

Once cased up we fine-tune the timekeeping to make sure the watch is as accurate as it can be. As this model is chronometer rated it is very accurate – when new it went through a series of strict tests to ensure excellent timekeeping accuracy. We always endeavour to get timekeeping as accurate as we can and various factors can affect this, including the calibre of the movement, age and condition of the watch.

One of the last elements of the job is to pressure test for water resistance. The Omega Seamaster is rated to 300m water resistant – we are able to test to this depth using our Sigma watch pressure testing machine. Finally we refit the bracelet before the watch will go on test prior to return to our client. It’s always a pleasure to work on an Omega Seamaster and this was no exception.

Water Damaged Tag Heuer repair

Posted on November 26, 2021 by David Clark

Tag Heuer is a brand we regularly see in our workshop. Tag Heuer in its current form was established in 1985, though the Heuer company has existed since 1860. Watches are produced both with quartz and automatic movements in a variety of different models including the Aquaracer, Kirium, F1 and Carrera.

Our workshop holds a parts account with Tag Heuer so we are able to obtain genuine Tag Heuer parts and repair many different faults with these watches.

This particular Tag Heuer came into our workshop in poor condition. It was water damaged, as can clearly be seen by the white ring around the inside of the glass. The dial itself was also water damaged, as were the hands. On inspecting the movement, we found water had damaged this too.

Water damaged Tag Heuer Water damaged Tag Heuer

Other issues included scratching all over the case and bracelet, missing lume from the marker on the bezel, and the black infill missing from the number “1” of “10” on the bezel.

To get this watch working again we needed to completely replace the movement. This involves swapping out the entire movement in a like-for-like exchange. We were able to order the model specific dial, so this was changed as the existing dial was too badly damaged. After speaking to our client, we re-used the original hands, though cleaned these up as best we could.

Fully restored Tag Heuer Watch Fully restored Tag Heuer Watch

The case and bracelet were given a thorough clean before then being refinished. This massively improved the appearance of the watch. We could then carefully reapply the black infill to the bezel, as well as the luminous marker.

Now we just needed to reassemble the watch – fitting a brand-new set of seals and making sure it passes as water resistant.

As a Tag Heuer parts account holder we are able to obtain any case parts which may be required. Besides the repairs needed to this watch, other common repairs include bezel replacement (most often necessary on F1 models where the numbers can fade easily), crown replacement and fitting new pushers to chronograph models. We are able to repair very water damaged watches like this one – obtaining anything which needs to be replaced including the dial, hands, seals and of course the movement.

Rolex Oyster Perpetual Date servicing and refinishing

Posted on November 26, 2021 by David Clark

A recent job in the workshop involved servicing and refinishing the case and bracelet of a Rolex Oyster Perpetual Date.

Rolex are arguably the biggest name in the world of watches, with numerous inventions, innovations and awards to their name. Their range of watches includes some truly iconic models including the Datejust, Submariner, Air King and Day-Date.

This particular Rolex is a Date model and uses a Rolex calibre 3135 automatic movement. These movements are excellent quality. They are certified chronometers, so fantastic timekeepers, and they are very reliable.

Rolex calibre 3135 movement

To service the movement, it is completely stripped apart, before going through a full cleaning cycle in a specialist watch movement cleaning machine. The movement is then carefully reassembled, with oils and greases used in certain places to ensure optimal performance of the watch for a full-service interval. A new mainspring was fitted during the reassembly process too.

On top of the work to the movement we refinished the case and bracelet.

The refinishing process involved stages of polishing each element of the case using a few different techniques. This is all done using our Durston double polishing motor and a variety of mops and compounds.

Once the refinishing of each part of the case is complete, they are given a final ultrasonic clean. Each part is then steam cleaned to ensure everything is spotless before reassembly.

Reassembling the case is a matter of initially refitting the case tube and glass, before then fitting the friction fit bezel. Once this is done the movement can be re-installed into the case, before the case back is fitted.

After all the work was completed, the watch undergoes rigorous testing for timekeeping. It is initially regulated by our watchmaker and checked in multiple positions to ensure it is performing as expected. It then is testing for automatic winding on our Elma Cyclomotion winding machine, as well as for power reserve and performance after 24 hours has elapsed.

How a quartz watch works

Posted on November 26, 2021 by David Clark

Quartz watches – watches usually powered by batteries – are very popular and we regularly see a huge variety of quartz models in our workshop. But how does a quartz watch actually work? In this blog post we’ll do our best to describe just how a quartz watch is able to transfer power from a battery through to the hands to indicate the time.

A battery (or strictly speaking, a cell), supplies the electricity needed to power a quartz watch. Electrical energy is produced by a chemical reaction between the two battery terminals and an electrolyte.

In order for a watch to work and accurately tell the time, it needs to use a ‘resonant oscillator’ – that is an oscillator which has a natural frequency of vibration. In mechanical watches or clocks this could be a pendulum (a weight acting against gravity), or a balance (a weight acting against a spring). Quartz watches use – as the name would suggest – a tiny piece of quartz. This piece of quartz is shaped like a tuning fork and when this is made to vibrate, it maintains a constant frequency.

Quartz watch movement Quartz watch movement

Thanks to the piezo-electric effect, applying a voltage to the quartz crystal will set it vibrating. This vibrating quartz crystal acts as the balance would in a mechanical watch and is responsible for the incredible accuracy of quartz watches. Indeed, a standard mechanical watch balance may vibrate at 2.5Hz, whereas a quartz crystal vibrates at a staggering 32,768Hz! This accounts, at least somewhat, for the incredible accuracy of the quartz watch.

In order for a quartz watch with a second hand to tell the time, we need an electrical pulse once per second. The watch integrated circuit is responsible for dividing down this figure to achieve the required single pulse per second.

This regular pulse per second is now used to drive a motor. The motor consists of a rotor, a stator and a coil. The motor is a permanent magnet and it is made to rotate through 180 degrees for each pulse received. Thanks to some clever design, this rotor will always turn in the same direction. That means if we attach a pinion to the top of the rotor we are able to drive a series of wheels from it.

From the rotor, the intermediate wheel is driven, the pinion of the intermediate wheel drives the second wheel (and on the pinion of this the second hand is attached). The second wheel pinion drives the third wheel. The third wheel arbor extends through to the dial side of the watch movement, and this is responsible for turning the driving wheel. The driving wheel leads to the rotation of the minute and hour hands.

As you can see from the brief description above, there’s actually quite a lot to a quartz watch. Do you have a quartz watch in need of repair? We are able to repair and restore almost any model and type of watch, including quartz. With our fully insured freepost watch repairs service we offer repairs to clients all around the UK. As holders of a Feefo Platinum Trusted Service Award and business partners of the British Horological Institute you can be confident in the service we provide.

IWC Mark XV servicing

Posted on November 26, 2021 by David Clark

A recent restoration project for one of our clients involved fully servicing an IWC Mark XV automatic watch. These models are very desirable – great looking military style watches, with excellent quality movements.

IWC was founded in 1868 – so over 150 years ago. The company is well known for producing military/aviation style watches, just like the Mark XV.

On arrival in the workshop this watch was not working properly and failing to keep time. Inspection of the movement revealed a lot of dried-up oil and debris in the movement, so a full service and a new mainspring was required.

IWC Automatic Watch

During a full service we completely disassemble the movement, carefully inspecting each component and pre-cleaning in sections as we go. We then run the disassembled movement through our specialist watch movement cleaning machine. We also run the case through a separate ultrasonic cleaner. After cleaning, the movement is carefully reassembled and oiled, before being adjusted and tested.

The movement powering this IWC Mark XV is an IWC calibre 30110, which is based on the ETA 2892-A2 but enhanced by IWC in-house. The 2892-A2 is a good quality automatic movement, which runs at 28,800 beats per hour and has 21 jewels. These movements as standard come in various levels of finish – this IWC version is very nicely decorated and after a full service it is working very nicely indeed.

Watch Mechanical Parts

After work is complete our testing procedure involves testing the watch on an automatic watch winding machine as well as testing under manual winding only. We ensure the watch is tested across a range of positions to confirm it is working as expected and within tolerances.

As you may have guessed by now, the quoted number of jewels quite literally refers to how many of these jewels are present in the movement. Just because a watch has a higher number of jewels does not necessarily mean it’s a better movement though. A mechanical watch will have less need for additional jewels than an automatic watch, as there are fewer moving parts. There was also a historic trend whereby watch manufacturers attempted to out-do each other by adding more and more jewels to their movements, purely as a sales technique. This relied on the ignorance of the consumer and their belief that “more must be better”. As a result, we ended up with jewels in all sorts of places where they have absolutely no purpose. The 100 jewel Orient Grand Prix is a good example of this – it has jewels fitted almost everywhere!

Do you have a mechanical watch in need of repair? Here at WE Clark Watch Repairs we are experts in the repair of all makes and models of watch – from vintage pocket watches through to modern big name brands like Tag Heuer, Omega and Rolex. We offer a fully insured freepost watch repairs service to clients all around the UK.
