often should I have my watch serviced? |

|
| How
long of a warranty do you offer on repairs? |
-
When we perform a complete overhaul or repairs, the watch is
covered by a 12 month warranty covering internal functionality. The
warranty does not include damaged caused by impact of the watch,
such as banging or dropping the watch. The warranty does not cover
moisture intrusion caused by leaving the crown unscrewed or from a
broken crystal. The crystal, band, bezel or case are not covered by
the warranty.

|
After my watch is serviced, how accurate will it be? |
-
The normal time
keeping accuracy of any mechanical watch is between 0-10 seconds
fast in a twenty-four hour period. Keep in mind that exposing the
watch to certain extremes, such as temperature or magnetism, may
cause the watch to perform outside of normal limits.
