Few luxury Swiss watchmakers enjoy the reputation of Breitling, which is known around the world for its high-quality, precision timepieces. Since Léon Breitling founded the company in 1884, Breitling has earned fine praise for innovation, and its watches are the perfect blend of expert craftsmanship and durability.
For this reason, Breitling watches are closely associated with adventure and aviation but they are also built to last more than a lifetime. Many collectors strive to invest in a Breitling watch to add to their collection and if you have one in your possession it’s important to maintain it to the highest standards.
We specialise in vintage Breitling watch repairs, servicing and restorations. Whether you have an original 1940s Chronomat, a Top Time from the ‘60s or a Navitimer from any generation including the current, we can help keep your classic timepiece running on time.
Breitling watch repairs and restoration
One of the best ways to ensure your vintage Breitling watch doesn’t fall into disrepair is to have it regularly serviced by an experienced professional. Our in-house team lead by our expert Master Watchmaker is experienced in the repair and restoration of all Breitling watches.
Repairs and restorations vary on a watch-by-watch basis, and while some only need minor repairs others can show significant signs of wear and tear. A Breitling watch restoration can be a complicated process but our Master Watchmaker holds the experience and expertise to restore vintage Breitling watches where others may have previously failed.
We want to continue the rich history Breitling enjoys by faithfully servicing its watches with genuine parts where we can source them. Where unable to source genuine parts, we will make them in our workshop to ensure they meet the same quality demands befitting a Breitling timepiece.
