Fine Swiss watches are sophisticated precision instruments. For maximum efficiency, and to prevent damage, they need regular checkups. Most manufacturers suggest that the interval between cleaning, lubricating, timing, and resealing for both mechanical/self-winding and quartz/analog watches should not exceed 3 to 5 years. The longer proper maintenance is deferred the greater the potential for damage and the more expensive the restoration. Don't wait.

A mechanical watch's performance is truly remarkable. It registers 604,800 seconds every week. In addition, the balance wheel rim travels the equivalent of 14,000 miles over a three year period. That's more than half way around the world on one oil change!
