Timegrapher info:
Rate: Will be within -10 and +10 s/d on average across 5 positions, but I aim for -3 to +5 s/d. Free sprung movements and genuine movements make it possible to get even more accurate.
Amplitude: For most movements an amplitude between 250-310 is healthy.
Beat Error: Less than 0.5 ms.
Date change: will be within 10mins of midnight, while I aim for less than 5mins as that is within Rolex spec.
Only greases and oils from Moebius is used. For waterproofing, Silicone grease from Moebius is used. These greases and oils are the standard in watchmaking.
Warranty for 12 months.
Because your satisfaction with your watch is my priority.
Rep parts are not always machined to Swiss standards. While high end replica movements are quite well made, I do try to be reasonable and cover it under warranty may a rep break under normal circumstances, such as the reversing wheel breaking, cannon pinion issues, date change issues or sudden accuracy issues just to give an example.
Warranty covers labor only. Does not include costs related to failed parts, unauthorized modifications or repair.
Warranty does not cover issues due to misuse such as drops or water damage. Misuse such as, screws and levers being broken due to pulling too hard on the stem or broken pinions/pivots due to drops. Pivots do not break from normal wear. If self inflicted damage is found, the repair will be charged for. Changing date between 9pm and 3am for some models may damage the date mechanism. Out of warranty repairs will be charged for according to the service prices listed.
Shipping costs for warranty repairs are to be paid by customer.
Water resistance
Waterproofing means greasing the gaskets of the sealings such that the case and caseback keep their seal and the gaskets do not crack. Sealings are made of rubber or other materials that may deform or wear after time and due to exposure to harsh conditions such as salt water or steam. It is recommended to check the conditions of gasket sealing every few years. A water resistance test is a momentarily snapshot of the water resistance and the condition of the gaskets. Water damage is not covered by warranty.
