01
Full Authenticity Assessment

The watchmaker will first verify the watch’s authenticity by cross-referencing its serial numbers with the brand’s official information. Our experts also confirm authenticity through meticulous scrutiny checks.

Diagnostic Test

The watchmaker will assess the watch aesthetically, identifying any parts that may need replacement. They will then disassemble the watch to check its internal functionality and diagnose any operational issues.
