What to expect
What to expect from a gasket replacement
- Why gaskets matter
- Gaskets seal the case back, crystal and crown; when they harden or crack, moisture can get in.
- Often done with other work
- Gaskets are commonly replaced during a battery change, a crystal replacement or a service.
- Followed by a pressure test
- A new gasket should be checked with a pressure test, so you know the watch is sealed again.
- The right part
- Gaskets are specific to the case, so for some models the shop may need to order the correct one.

Watch gasket replacement in Chicago — FAQ
How long does Gasket Replacement take?
Gasket Replacement is usually quick when the correct seals are in stock, and it is often done during a battery change or service. Model-specific gaskets may have to be ordered.
What affects the cost of Gasket Replacement?
How many seals are replaced, whether the crown or crystal gasket is included, and whether a pressure test follows all affect the price.
How do I know my watch needs Gasket Replacement?
Condensation under the crystal, a failed water-resistance test or a watch that has not been opened and resealed for years are all signs the gaskets need renewing.
Should a pressure test follow Gasket Replacement?
Yes. A pressure test confirms the new gaskets are seated correctly and that the case is sealed again.
