Expert care for your watch

Every four to five years, depending on the age and kind of movement in your watch, we advise servicing it. The original manufacturer will frequently advise you to get your watch maintained every two years, but this is not required; only when it is necessary may your watch be serviced.

When your watch starts to drastically lose or gain time, stops performing after routine maintenance, or suffers major internal damage, you will know it requires service.

How does it work?

Depending on the age and movement of your watch, we recommend servicing your watch every 4/5 years. The original manufacturer will often suggest to have your watch serviced every 2 years but in actuality this is not neccesary - your watch can be serviced only when it needs one. You will know when your watch needs servicing when it starts to lose/gain time significantly, if your watch stops working after regular maintenance or if the watch sustains signifcant damage internally.

A full service entails your watch being opened up and fully stripped, any damaged or defective parts will be repaired or replaced, all the necessary components will be oiled and lubricated to ensure the parts move correctly. The watch is reassembled then finetuning, regulating and testing is done so the watch is accurate and running smoothly. If applicable, the watch will then be polished to look as good as new.

Servicing your watch involves a lot of intricate and precise work. Watch servicing is a complex repair so it's important to bring your watch to qualified technicians. At Watch Battery Replacement & Repair we employ certified watchmakers and technicians with accreditations from leading brands such as Rolex, Cartier, IWC etc. Bring your watch to our Central London shop to be serviced today.

Frequently asked questions

This depends on several factors such as the movement of the watch, how old the watch is and when it was last serviced. It can take anywhere between 4-12 weeks to service a watch.

Yes, if the client requests, we can exclude watch polishing from the service. We understand some clients may not want their watch polished for several reasons.

We accept payment via cards, cash, and direct bank transfers. For more information or to discuss flexible payment options, please contact us.

Vintage watches can be significantly hardler to service as components for odler watches are not as readily available. If the parts are available then we can service the watch. If they aren’t available an alternative could be using some non-original parts that function the same way.

I’ve now used them three times and every single time it’s been perfect. From simple links removal, to a corroded battery replacement for a very precious watch (thankfully still working!) to a repair of a metal strap… it’s always been done with a smile, at a rate that was lower than expected and just an all round lovely experience. There’s really nowhere else I’d take my watch to than here, thanks for a great retail experience.

Great place to have the watch battery replaced, honest, quick and competitive priced, I collected my watch after 45 minutes, Bvlgari requested to leave the watch for 3 weeks, I also dropped my mum Omega watch and the turnover time was quick. They also have a great selection of strap, will visit again when one of my watches needs repairing

A pleasure to walk into this small centre of professional excellence. I only needed a replacement battery for my watch, but was delighted by the courtesy of my reception and the swiftness of the service. So many places make a meal of battery replacement - "have to send the watch away," and "it'll take about 6 weeks." In WBRR in Blandford Street the whole operation took less than 15 minutes while I waited, and was a joy. Beautiful watches all around - I only wish I needed to buy one, and if ever I do, I shall be back.
Came just before their closing time to get a couple links removed from my watch, and was also in a rush as I needed to make it to the post office before it closed. In 5 minutes with £5 it was all done. They were friendly and professional as well.
