my experiance.
I paid around $1200 to have my Compressor Geographic serviced 3 years ago in Fort Worth, TX. I was not happy with the additional quote of $1000 to replace the crowns, which JLC stated had dis-colored white paint. I declined the crown replacement. $450+ usd per crown is crazy!
I have had my EWC serviced twice, I think it was around $800, but took 4 months each time.
General cost of service
My JLC grande date reverso is in need of a service, running a bit fast. I want to get a general ballpark figure for a standard service. A USD figure from the U.S. is fine. I'm currently living in HK and I'm hearing 4000-5000 HKD, which is possibly well ov...
I am in Bangkok and was quoted last year around HKD 4,075 for...
... the overhaul of my Reverso Grande Sun Moon which is not very different from your Grande Date. I did not care to ask if it included polishing. The watch remains unserviced at this time because I have been too busy paying for new watches. Besides, it is...
Complete Service
Hi, it should be something like 770 USD for a complete service in New York (including polishing). 230 USD for a maintenance service. (I did a service for my Reverso Grande GMT 3 month ago)
600 / 700 USD doesn't seem too exagerated.
Compared to Rolex, which will charge you quite the same for a less elaborated Watch, or to Patek, which is more than that. Best, Nicolas.
My Memovox E855 is ...
... currently - well, during the next 7 month that is - getting a complete service of the movement at Le Sentier for about 1.000,- €. Adding the - in JLC's discretion necessary - extras on the case I may as well have gone for a new one! ;-) Cheers Christi...
I just had my Dualmatic serviced...
Sent it to JLC/Richemont in Texas. While it was done quite quickly, the service charge has caused marital problems (and that's not a joke) and made me rethink whether I ought to own a JLC (the service for my independents appears to be much less expensive)...
The JLC Service Center Prices Seem Somewhat High
I recently had my 1955 P800/C powered JLC and my 1963 K819/C serviced by my Castro Valley, CA watchmaker, Randy Vortman for $325 each. Completely disassembled. cleaned and re lubricated, reused the mainsprings, new crystal for the similar to Ref 1901 SS "...
Yes, servicing a vintage can be expensive, if you send it to the Manuf.
But it is the same for Patek, Vacheron, Rolex ( yes, yes, a big service on a vintage can be very expensive, most of all if you send it at the appropriate service at the Manuf ), and so on. The local and competent watchmaker is an excellent solution, indee...
600 USD sounds about right...
I was given a ballpark figure of ~900 SGD (~700 USD) for service of a calibre 899 by the JLC boutique in Singapore. Strangely, I was pleasantly surprised, as this is in the range or even lower than service charges for Omega. In saying this, I guess the re...
