Zlatoust mechanical timepieces are crafted to the highest quality standards, engineered to serve you for decades. However, like any precision instrument, they consist of numerous moving parts that rely on lubricants and gaskets. These components require periodic maintenance to ensure flawless, long-term performance.
To maintain the precision and integrity of your timepiece, we recommend a comprehensive service at the Zlatoust Watch Factory every two years. Our master watchmakers perform a meticulous inspection of every component, verifying movement accuracy and testing all operational functions. Based on your watch's condition, we will provide a detailed estimate for the restorative work required to return your timepiece to its original factory specifications.

What is an Overhaul?
In high-end watchmaking, an overhaul (or repassage) is the process of disassembling, cleaning, and recalibrating the movement. We adjust the balance wheel, mainspring, and other critical components to achieve the highest possible accuracy.
Personalization & Restyling
Beyond maintenance, we offer exclusive customization to evolve the appearance of your timepiece. Options include custom engravings on the dial or case, or replacing your current dial with a unique face crafted from Damascus steel, mokume-gane, or authentic meteorite. Our craftsmen are dedicated to fulfilling your vision through a professional restyling of any ZWF timepiece.
