Servicing your timepiece

Just as you would take your car in for a service after a certain number of miles on the clock, we recommend sending your Romain Gauthier timepiece back to Manufacture Romain Gauthier for service at least once every three years.

Your nearest Romain Gauthier authorised retailer can help you to do this.

A service sees your timepiece returned to the expert Romain Gauthier watchmaker who originally assembled and regulated it, ensuring continuity and quality.

The service includes carefully taking the movement from its case, disassembling the movement, checking and cleaning all components and applying fresh oil to components.

The hands are removed and polished, the sapphire crystals of the dial and display back are removed and cleaned. The strap is reconditioned and/or replaced and the Romain Gauthier pin buckle repolished.

The movement is put back into its repolished case and a battery of tests – the same ones as if the watch were new – are conducted, including testing and regulating the movement and winding mechanism, as well as water-resistance tests.

If necessary, the water-resistant seals are replaced. This is especially important if the timepiece is worn frequently in humid climates.

The entire servicing process will take at least one month – the length of time necessary to ensure that your watch maintains its value.
