Bringing classic timepieces back to life

DEDICATION TO AUTHENTICITY

Steven Hale watchmakers can repair and restore even the most demanding and difficult watches to ensure many years of invaluable use.

Watch repair and restoration is an entirely different discipline from servicing, since it is about bringing historic and classic timepieces back to life – often from a poor, damaged or derelict state. The watch repair and restoration process demands an intimate awareness of techniques used in traditional horology, as well as extensive knowledge of the aesthetic and mechanical designs used throughout the history of watch-making.

Our luxury watch repairers and restorers are highly trained specialists in vintage and antiquarian horology – and their understanding of the original style and appearance of many different kinds of historic watches ensures that they can accurately bring these fabulous timepieces back to their former glory.   

To keep their skills expertly honed, our watchmakers regularly attend international training courses with top international horological schools and watch houses. Specialising in vintage and complicated high-end, high-value watches, we blend traditional horological methods with state-of-the art digitised machinery and Computer-Aided Design (CAD), allowing us to re-manufacture bespoke components that most other repairers would consider impossible to reproduce.
