EBEL watches are famous for their exquisite watchmaking craftsmanship and excellent quality. In order to ensure that your mechanical watch always maintains the best condition, regular maintenance is essential. So, how often does an EBEL watch need to be oiled and maintained?
Maintenance frequency
EBEL officially recommends that mechanical watches (including manual-winding and automatic-winding movements) should be fully serviced every three to five years. This includes cleaning, oiling and necessary parts replacement of the movement. For quartz watches, it is recommended to replace the battery every two to three years and perform basic maintenance at the same time.
Why is regular maintenance necessary?
Extending service life : Regular maintenance can effectively extend the service life of your watch, ensuring that it remains accurate and reliable for many years.
Maintain accuracy : The lubricating oil inside the movement will dry out over time, affecting the accuracy of the watch. Regular oiling can keep the movement running smoothly.
Prevent wear : The gears and other parts in the movement are prone to wear due to lack of lubrication. Regular maintenance can prevent this from happening.
Maintaining water resistance : The seals of a watch will age over time, affecting its water resistance. Regular maintenance can test and replace these seals to ensure that your watch remains water-resistant.
Maintenance content
At an EBEL watch service center (such as the Swiss Watch Repair Center ), your watch will receive a comprehensive inspection and maintenance. The specific steps include:
Disassembly and cleaning : The movement is completely disassembled and all parts are cleaned to remove old lubricants and impurities.
Grease and Assemble : Re-grease the cleaned parts and reassemble according to original factory standards.
Adjustment and testing : The assembled movement is adjusted to ensure its accurate timekeeping and tested for water resistance.
How to determine whether maintenance is needed?
In addition to regular maintenance, if your watch exhibits the following conditions, you should also send it to an authorized service center for inspection as soon as possible:
Inaccurate or stopped running
There is something wrong with the dial or pointer
Damage to case or strap
Waterproof performance decreased
Summary
The frequency of maintenance of EBEL watches is generally once every three to five years, but the specific situation depends on the use and environment of the watch. Regular maintenance can not only extend the life of the watch, but also ensure that it always remains in the best condition. Whether it is a mechanical watch or a quartz watch, regular professional maintenance is the key to maintaining its value and performance.
Through regular maintenance, you can ensure that your EBEL watch will remain dazzling, accurate and reliable in the years to come.
