"Not worth repairing"

This watch is leaving our workshop and will be returned to its owner today. Unfortunately, it's all too common for local jewelers to deem such watches unworthy of repair. Often, this dismissal masks their lack of expertise in servicing vintage timepieces.

Yet, this watch, like many others, holds immeasurable value. How can we assign a price to watches passed down from our fathers, our grandmothers, or those gifted to us on significant milestones like our 18th birthday?

Today, a cherished timepiece—once belonging to someone's father—is being returned, now in perfect working order and ready for daily wear. For a watchmaker, there's no greater satisfaction than restoring such precious pieces.
