Diagnosis & Cost estimate
Once received at our workshop, your timepiece will undergo a thorough diagnosis to determine the service(s) required to restore the optimal functional condition.
You will receive a cost estimate by email outlining the necessary works, and possibly suggestion(s) for optional interventions recommended for aesthetical reasons.
Service
Your approval of the Cost Estimate will be required for the service to proceed (unless your service is covered under warranty, in which case it will go straight into repair).
The approved service intervention(s) will be performed within the timeframe indicated on the cost estimate. In the event that you refuse the Cost Estimate, we will not perform any service and will return your watch to you in the condition it was received.
Payment
Once the service and final quality controls are completed you will receive an email inviting you to proceed with the payment by bank transfer (unless the service fees are covered by warranty).
Return delivery
Following receipt of payment, your timepiece will be securely shipped to your return delivery address. DHL will contact you to confirm the shipping details.
