The movement is the heart of a watch, responsible for its accuracy and performance. Over time, wear and tear, irregular movement, or complete stoppage can compromise its functionality. Raykin Watch Repairs specializes in diagnosing and repairing internal watch mechanisms, ensuring that every timepiece is restored to precise working order. Whether a minor adjustment or a full overhaul is required, each repair is performed with the highest level of care and expertise.
Diagnosis and Inspection
Every movement repair begins with a thorough assessment to identify the root cause of the issue. Whether the watch has lost accuracy, stopped completely, or exhibits irregular movement, Raykin Watch Repairs carefully inspects the internal mechanism to determine the necessary repairs. This detailed evaluation helps prevent further complications and ensures the most effective solution.
Component Repair and Replacement
Worn-out gears, damaged balance wheels, and malfunctioning escapements can all affect a watch’s precision. When individual parts are found to be faulty, Raykin Watch Repairs carefully replaces them with high-quality components that match the original specifications. Every repair is performed with precision to maintain the integrity of the movement.
Complete Movement Overhaul
For watches requiring a more extensive restoration, a full movement overhaul is the most effective solution. This process involves complete disassembly, deep cleaning of every component, re-lubrication of the moving parts, and meticulous reassembly. The movement is then adjusted and regulated to restore its original accuracy and smooth operation.
Lubrication for Smooth Performance
Proper lubrication is essential for reducing friction and preventing premature wear. Raykin Watch Repairs uses specialized lubricants to ensure that the movement operates smoothly, reducing stress on components and extending the watch’s lifespan. Incorrect or dried-out lubrication can lead to further damage, making regular servicing essential.
Regulation and Accuracy Testing
After repairs and servicing are completed, every movement undergoes precise regulation to restore optimal timekeeping. Raykin Watch Repairs tests the watch in multiple positions to ensure accuracy and stability. This process guarantees that the timepiece meets expected performance standards and functions as intended.
Mechanical and Automatic Movement Repairs
Different types of watch movements require specialized techniques. Whether it’s a manual-wind or automatic movement, Raykin Watch Repairs has the expertise to handle complex mechanisms. From adjusting rotor efficiency in automatic watches to fine-tuning escapements in mechanical models, each repair is executed with attention to detail.
Addressing Water and Dust Damage
Exposure to moisture, dust, or improper sealing can lead to movement deterioration. If a watch has suffered from water damage or accumulated debris, Raykin Watch Repairs performs a full cleaning and restoration process to eliminate contaminants and restore full functionality. Preventive measures such as gasket replacement and case sealing are also recommended to avoid future issues.
Restoring Power Reserve and Efficiency
If a watch is running out of power too quickly, the issue may lie within the mainspring or winding mechanism. Raykin Watch Repairs carefully examines power reserve efficiency, replacing weakened mainsprings and adjusting winding components to ensure proper energy retention and consistent timekeeping.
A well-maintained movement ensures that a watch functions reliably for years to come. Whether a minor adjustment or a full overhaul is needed, Raykin Watch Repairs provides expert service to keep every timepiece running at peak performance.
