George Town, Penang — Est. Workshop
Movement diagnostics, case engraving, and long-term storage preparation — each service carried out with a careful hand and a written record left with the owner.
Index of Services
No work proceeds without the owner's understanding and written consent. Each entry below describes the scope, process, and price of a single service.
Service 01
An initial inspection under magnification and timing machine, followed by a plain-language written report. No further work begins without the owner's consent.
Service 02
Case removal, surface inspection, proof review before engraving, finish restoration to match the original character, and a water-resistance test where applicable.
Service 03
A preparatory service for pieces being set aside for extended periods. Light service, bearing lubrication, gasket inspection, demagnetisation, and a written storage advisory included.
Why This Workshop
Each service closes with a written record left with the owner. The findings, the work performed, and the return condition are set down plainly.
No intervention is made without a proper assessment. Owners receive a clear picture of their piece's condition before deciding how to proceed.
Work does not proceed without explicit written consent. The owner's decision governs the process throughout.
For engraving work, a proof is submitted for review before any tool meets the caseback. Changes can be requested at that stage.
Long-term storage preparation includes a written advisory specific to the owner's circumstances — their storage environment, collection habits, and piece type.
Where applicable, pieces returned after caseback work are tested for water resistance before being handed back to the owner.
Bring your timepiece in, or write ahead with a description of what you've noticed. There is no obligation to proceed beyond an initial consultation.
Common Questions
Most diagnostic appointments are completed within three to five working days. The written report follows shortly after, and the owner can take time to read it before deciding on any next steps.
Yes. Each job is handled individually, so booking an appointment ensures the piece receives proper attention from the outset. Walk-ins are occasionally accommodated when the schedule allows, but an advance inquiry is always preferable.
Primarily mechanical and automatic movements. Some quartz movements are considered, particularly where they form part of a piece with sentimental or collector value. A brief description at the time of enquiry helps set expectations.
Yes. Engraving and caseback refinishing are available for any piece, regardless of origin. The case will be assessed for suitability — particularly caseback thickness — before a proof and price are discussed.
General guidance tends toward stable, low-humidity environments away from direct sunlight. The written advisory provided with each storage preparation service is specific to the owner's circumstances and covers temperature ranges, winding schedules, and suitable case types for Penang's climate.
The report covers observed condition, timing machine results across standard positions, amplitude readings, beat error, and a plain-language assessment of findings. A measured set of options follows, without any pressure to choose any of them.
