Watch Full Service in Singapore
4 certified shops
A Full Service watch repair is the most comprehensive maintenance procedure for your timepiece. Over time, the internal lubricants within a mechanical or quartz movement can dry out, and microscopic debris can cause friction. This complete overhaul process addresses every component of the watch to restore its reliability, precision, and structural integrity.
During a Full Service, watchmakers completely disassemble the movement, clean every individual wheel and bridge, replace worn components, and apply fresh lubricants. The case and bracelet are cleaned, and new gaskets are installed to secure the water resistance before the movement is carefully reassembled, regulated, and tested over several days.

Frequently asked questions
What does a Full Service watch repair involve?
A Full Service involves completely disassembling the watch movement, cleaning all individual parts, replacing any worn components, applying fresh lubrication, replacing gaskets, and rigorously testing the timekeeping accuracy.
How often should a watch undergo a Full Service?
Most manufacturers recommend having a Full Service performed every four to five years. This regular maintenance prevents dry lubricants from causing friction and wear on the delicate internal gears.
Why is a Full Service necessary if my watch is still running?
Even if a watch is currently running, internal oils eventually dry out or attract dust, which acts as an abrasive. A Full Service prevents irreversible wear on the movement parts before a breakdown occurs.
Is water resistance restored during a Full Service?
Yes, replacing the synthetic seals and gaskets is a standard part of a Full Service. The watch case is then pressure-tested to verify that it meets its original water resistance specifications.
How long does a Full Service watch repair typically take?
The process requires meticulous disassembly, cleaning, reassembly, and a multi-day testing phase to monitor power reserve and accuracy. This detailed sequence means the service generally takes several weeks to complete properly.
