Precision at Every Step
1. Battery Type Identification
We determine the exact Swiss battery or movement configuration for your Zenith — whether quartz or mechanical — ensuring correct voltage, compatibility, and energy efficiency for long-term reliability.
2. Careful Case Opening
Using Zenith-specific tools and torque control, we open the case safely to protect gaskets, threads, and seals, maintaining the watch’s waterproof integrity and precision assembly.
3. Movement Service & Calibration
We perform a complete mechanical overhaul on calibres such as El Primero 400, Elite, and Zenith Defy movements — including cleaning, oiling, and regulation — or fit premium Swiss batteries for quartz references.
4. Timing & Precision Testing
Each serviced Zenith undergoes timing accuracy, amplitude, and chronograph calibration tests on Swiss timing equipment to ensure it meets or exceeds chronometer-grade performance.
5. Waterproofing & Pressure Test
We replace seals and perform pressurised water-resistance testing to factory standards — vital for models such as the Defy Extreme and Chronomaster Sport.
6. Final Inspection & Finishing
Each Zenith is subjected to a meticulous final inspection — verifying power reserve, hand alignment, and finishing quality. We restore the case and bracelet to its original Zenith factory sheen for a flawless return.
