Maintenance intervals depend on movement type, daily wear, operating conditions, timekeeping performance, and the manufacturer's service recommendations.
- Routine Checks Monitor timekeeping accuracy, crown operation, clasp security, and visible signs of wear during regular use.
- When Performance Changes Arrange an assessment if the watch stops unexpectedly, loses or gains time, or develops winding and setting difficulties.
- Periodic Maintenance Review movement condition, power reserve, seals, and exterior components according to the watch's design and service history.
- After Damage or Moisture Exposure Seek prompt inspection after an impact, cracked crystal, suspected water ingress, or a sudden change in operation.
