I usually entrusted anything I need done in the capable hands of les ambassadeurs... having joined this wonderful group I feel confident I may find the confidence in taking up the venture my self plus learn from my watches rather than having a pure paid for service....
thank you in advance




The watch was my grandfathers and I would love to restore the movement to an impeccable state... leaving the the watch in current state just some spa cleaning

Authenticity I would use Zenith. They have stocks of original period parts.

That’s wonderful and makes it a very special item…

At Zenith you could visit and see your watch being restored and tour the Factory. This would be the actual place that the watch was made in! They may have a record of the watch in the archives and retailer that sold it. I urge you to take it to Zenith.

I like pocket watches too. Such important thing to you

they will definitely restore it and do an impressive work. They are well known for restoring antique watches and even if some parts are missing they can easily reproduce them. That’s a wonderful piece by the way. Good luck on the restoration. Laurent
