Comprehensive Diagnostic & Mechanical Overhaul
Mechanical clocks rely on intricate escapements, mainspring barrels, and calibrated train wheels that undergo natural wear over years of continuous movement. In our dedicated horological workshop, every timepiece begins with an exhaustive inspection to isolate gear train friction, pivot wear, and escapement timing errors. We meticulously disassemble movements, run components through multi-stage ultrasonic cleaning baths, polish steel pivots, and re-lubricate pivots with synthetic Swiss horology oils specifically rated for temperature stability across Canadian seasons.
Specialized Quartz Caliber & Movement Restoration
Quartz timepieces feature integrated circuits, electromagnetic stepper motors, and precision gear trains requiring specialized electronic pulse testing and delicate gear alignment. When a quartz clock experiences erratic ticking, battery contact oxidation, or motor stalls, our technicians replace degraded coil assemblies, clean oxidised contacts, and install high-torque movements designed to drive substantial architectural hands reliably.
Workshop Protocol & Restoration Standards
Our workshop strictly adheres to traditional watchmaking ethics combined with advanced diagnostic instrumentation. Every clock submitted for restoration receives comprehensive bench testing before return delivery.
- Full ultrasonic parts cleaning and non-abrasive ultrasonic degreasing of brass plates and steel pinions.
- Precision bushing installation using hard bronze bushes to correct worn pivot holes and eliminate wheel wobble.
- Extended 7-day continuous timing regulation on digital quartz and mechanical timing stands prior to dispatch.

Care & Guidance FAQs
A standard mechanical overhaul typically requires 2 to 4 weeks. This timeframe ensures complete disassembly, ultrasonic cleaning, replacement of worn bushings, proper reassembly, and a mandatory 7-day timing and strike synchronization test on the bench.
Always remove the pendulum bob, weights, and decorative finials before packing. Secure internal strike hammers with soft tissue paper, wrap the clock body in double-walled bubble wrap, and place it in a rigid shipping container with generous padding on all sides.
