We recently repaired a customer's watch.
Apparently, he accidentally washed the watch in the washing machine while it was still in his pocket.
We responded to the urgent repair.
If the watch is submerged in water, the longer it remains in the water, the more rust and deterioration will occur inside the watch.
An overhaul will be required as soon as possible.
This time, the item was delivered quickly, so we were able to avoid any major repairs, but the balance wheel was damaged and needed to be replaced.
Luckily the craftsman had the parts so nothing happened.
This time, the water was from a washing machine, so the detergent removed the machine oil.
There was a risk of peeling off the oil film on the dial,
I was really pleased that there was no visible damage to the exterior.
If this was seawater, it would cause the machinery to rust,
In the worst case scenario, the back cover may not open.
In any case, you need to respond quickly in the event of water damage.
In that case, please contact us immediately!
