A customer recently requested regular maintenance.
This time we overhauled the car and gave it a new exterior finish.
Watches with large case sizes, such as this Cartier Pasha C38,
Minor scratches will occur with daily use.
This cannot be avoided, but
It's also a good idea to clean it when you have an overhaul or something.
However, the scale part of the outer bezel type watch is "inked",
In the case of vintage watches, this ink may peel off over time.
Therefore, if you bring your device in for repair, we will clean the case,
We may refuse to repair the exterior of the product.
If you accept that the ink may peel off, we will give it a new finish.
This time, the repair was for a customer, so we gave it a new finish and also inked the bezel.
The fee for this is 11,000 yen for a new finish, and the inking work fee is included.
We want you to enjoy using the watch you purchased,
Detailed work will also be included in the price.
However, this time the luminous part of the hands has deteriorated,
During the overhaul, there was an accident where the luminous element broke.
This is a common case with older Pasha models that used tritium luminous material.
Once the luminous material becomes brittle, it will eventually suffer some kind of damage.
This time, we also repaired the luminous material and the work was done within the cost of an overhaul.
Even though it was an act of God, I am unsure whether to charge for the deterioration that occurred during the work.
Just like inking, this is a customer's watch, so we do not charge a fee.
Even if we say "overhaul," there are various patterns,
Sometimes unexpected things happen, like this time.
However, I feel that it would be strange to charge a separate fee for this work,
We would like to be as flexible as possible.
If you are not sure whether your watch can be repaired,
Please feel free to contact us first.
Thank you very much for using our store this time!
