How much does IWC watch servicing cost?

　　IWC watches are sleek, bold, and feature strong lines, showcasing their precision and elegance. However, some friends who have recently purchased an IWC watch may not be familiar with maintenance basics and want to know the servicing costs. Below, Ya will outline the maintenance pricing and relevant care methods for IWC watches, so let us learn more together.

　　IWC watch servicing costs

　　The servicing cost for an IWC watch is generally around two to three thousand. Taking it to a specialist repair shop is shockingly expensive. Usually, if there are no faults, cleaning is unnecessary; it is only worth cleaning if the hairspring becomes sticky. Other parts include the hands—over time, the second and minute hands may oxidize and experience sticking. Generally, as long as water does not get in, they will have no issues for ten years. I have dismantled nearly a hundred Swiss watches aged 30 years or more, and most of the timekeeping inaccuracies were caused by fibers sticking to the balance wheel during assembly or cleaning. Once extracted, they usually achieve an accuracy within 6 seconds per day without even needing a service or calibration. Tissot today is not what Tissot used to be; its manufacturing precision is much lower than in the past. Professional online cleaning quotes are typically around 120. Professional cleaning also has its share of mediocre watchmakers; if left uncleaned it might still be fine, but the cleaning and assembly process could ruin the watch without you even knowing, and many issues can only be seen with a magnifying glass.

　　IWC watch maintenance methods

　　(1) Whenever possible, avoid dropping or severely colliding with your IWC watch, as this may cause the case to deform and cave inwards, or the crystal to warp and shatter, thereby causing the precision waterproof construction to fail. If an IWC watch has been worn for a long time and the exterior is severely damaged or dented inward, it can be taken to a nearby watch shop for comprehensive treatments such as watch cosmetic services.

　　(2) When servicing an IWC watch, all parts must be dismantled, the movement cleaned with petrol, and other internal components cleaned using professional equipment, followed by oiling and reassembly. In addition to the internal parts, the exterior case of the IWC watch must also be polished during the service. Because watches have extremely high technical requirements, professional servicing and cleaning is a very delicate task that typically takes 5 days to complete. After such complex professional maintenance, an old watch can generally be restored to eighty percent of its original condition.

　　(3) Naturally, servicing and cleaning an IWC watch requires a certain cost, and maintenance fees are particularly high for IWC watches costing tens of thousands. Depending on the quality of the IWC watch described, dismantling and cleaning fees vary. For instance, according to standard regulations of the watch industry association for watches worth tens of thousands, apart from the dismantling and cleaning fee, an inspection fee of one-thousandth of the IWC watch's grade and price is also added.

　　Precautions for IWC watch maintenance

　　1, avoid the watch strap coming into contact with water and moisture to prevent discoloration and deformation; avoid prolonged exposure to sunlight to prevent fading.

　　2, as leather watch straps are easily permeable, avoid contact with oily substances or cosmetics.

　　3, carry out a water resistance test and exterior cleaning on the watch once a year.

　　4, when using an IWC mechanical watch, avoid contact with water, magnetic fields, and strong vibrations, so as not to damage the movement and affect the service life. Mechanical movement watches should undergo a complete overhaul every 3-5 years.
