Manhattan Watch Service

08/08/2026

Full service on this Patek Philippe tourbillon minute repeater Moonphase, perpetual calendar, tourbillon, and a full minute repeater striking train, all in one movement.

The repeater is the hard part. Hammers have to strike the gongs perfectly in time with the actual hour and minute or the chime is wrong. Tourbillon has to run in beat completely on its own without dragging on the repeater train. Everything cleaned, oiled, adjusted, all in our shop.

🔋 Swiss Battery Replacement Done the Right Way

A lot of people don’t realize how important a proper battery change is on a Swiss quartz watch. The movement in a Cartier, Omega, Longines, Ebel, TAG, or any other Swiss quartz piece isn’t something you treat like a $20 drugstore watch. One wrong battery, bad seal, or sloppy install can easily ruin the entire movement.

Here’s what we do on every battery job:

• High-capacity, fresh-date batteries (NOT the cheap ones that leak)
• Proper case sealing + gasket check
• Movement inspection under the microscope
• Terminal cleaning if there’s any corrosion starting
• Express service available — perfect if you’re traveling or rushing through NYC
• Done by certified watchmakers, not random mall kiosks
• No shortcuts, no guesswork

If your watch runs on a battery, we take care of it the way it’s supposed to be done.

Customer Diving Accident - TAG Heuer Complete Rebuild Needed

Just received this TAG Heuer Link in today and wow, what a story. Customer was diving when the watch couldn't handle the pressure - basically exploded underwater and filled completely with saltwater.

**The Damage:**
Looking at this thing, you can see exactly what saltwater does to a fine timepiece. That brown discoloration on the dial isn't aging - it's pure corrosion. The crystal separated from the case, and salt crystals formed throughout the entire movement.

**What Needs to Happen:**
This isn't your typical service job. We're talking complete reconstruction here:

• Full movement disassembly - every screw, every gear
• Deep cleaning to remove all salt deposits
• Sourcing genuine TAG Heuer parts (only available to certified workshops)
• Complete case restoration
• New sealing system installation
• Pressure testing to factory specs

**Timeline: 3-4 weeks**

Why the wait? Genuine TAG parts take time to get, and this level of damage can't be rushed. When we finish, this watch will perform exactly like it did when it left the factory.

After 35+ years in this business, I've seen plenty of water damage cases. Saltwater is always the most challenging because it's so corrosive. But we've brought watches back from worse conditions than this.
