Specialist work
Watch battery replacement and repair assessment in Banstead
Discuss watch batteries, straps, clasps and repair concerns. The studio checks the watch construction, movement and condition before agreeing suitable work.
A stopped watch may need a battery, but that is not the only possible cause. Bring the complete watch and describe when it stopped, whether it has been exposed to moisture and whether the crown, glass or case has been damaged. The studio assesses suitable battery replacement and everyday watch repair enquiries before work is agreed.
Straps, clasps and attachment points can also need attention. Leather strap wear, a loose fastening and a movement problem are different jobs. Explain whether you want to retain original parts, alter the fit or investigate a fault. Delicate, valuable, vintage and specialist movements may need the appropriate watchmaker or manufacturer service.
