When should my automatic watch be serviced?

How often should an automatic watch be serviced?

An automatic watch should be serviced regularly so that the mechanical movement keeps running reliably in the long term.

How often a service makes sense depends on the use, model and condition of the watch. As a rough guide, a service every few years can be a good idea.

Many small components work together inside the watch. Over time, oils can age, lubricants can wear down and individual components can wear out.

If your watch is running noticeably less accurately, has stopped, or is making unusual noises, it might be worth having it checked. Our customer service team is happy to help you work out whether a service is recommended.
