How often do Swiss watches need servicing?
The rules are that Swiss watches need servicing every 3-5 years (depending on the manufacturer). However, the practice of Frezer House indicates that it is better to order repassage of Swiss watches as needed.
Signs that are an alert:
-
uneven running
-
watches run down faster than one day/night
-
watches began coming to a stop
Most problems usually arise because of the grease thickening. If you apply for the Swiss watches servicing in a timely manner, you will get your watch back in the perfect condition.
Before these signs appear, repassage is not needed. The mechanism of Swiss watches is extremely vulnerable: even during professional servicing of Swiss watches, small specks of dust get inside and affect accuracy – one way or another. Therefore, it is better not be overdiligent with Swiss watch servicing.
