Three Services, Clearly Described

Water-resistance resealing, movement cleaning, and case rebuilds — with listed prices, written findings, and no work begun without agreement.

How Every Job Begins

Our Methodology

Every watch that comes to Geartha starts with an inspection before any pricing is discussed. What we find is written out and handed to the owner. Work begins only when scope is agreed and noted.

Depending on the service, jobs may run in stages — particularly case refinishing, where checkpoints let the owner review condition before the next phase begins. Movement cleaning is typically a single-pass job with a defined scope that doesn't change mid-process unless something unexpected is found, in which case we stop and discuss.

Parts sourcing, when needed, is discussed before ordering. The replaced components are kept for the owner to inspect on collection.
