Good morning.  I have a dualmatic that requires full service.  I have received an estimate for full service (apparently because it has the compressor mechanism) it had to be sent to Switzerland) and it seems quite high.  what might a "full service" run on a watch like this?  thanks in advance

I'm curious, as I have a Dualmatic as well, and wonder what the service cost will be in the future.

Did it include refinishing the bracelet? That can be a lot of work (time-consuming=costly).

My guess is that it would be around 500 Euros, depending on what has to be done on your watch.

For example, so you have to change the sapphire, one or 2 compressor crowns, and so on.

Best,

I had a full service on my EWC in 2007 and paid around $800.  I currently have my Master Compressor Geographic in for service and was quoted $1030.  It was also suggested that I replace the Compressor crowns (3 of them) because the paint is yellowing for an additional $1070!  This is the first time I have used this AD to facilitate the service, and I wounder if I am getting gouged!  I opted not to replace out the crowns, as they were in my opinion, in good condition.

How three pieces of crowns can cost you more than $1000 is beyond me. They don't feel ashamed ripping off their own loyal customers like that?

I received the answer from my contact at the Manufacture, and I have received the confirmation that a small complication like the Dual Time or the Dual Matic would cost 525 Euros for a complete service ( movement service and polish ).

It can be more important if you have to changr the dial, the glass and so on...

Best,

Nicolas
