What to do if you break your watch face?

Whether it is a new or old watch, we always feel a certain attachment to it. When, through clumsiness or bad luck, it falls or hits an object with enough force, the glass that protects the dial may break or crack. When such a shock occurs, the mechanisms of the watch may have been damaged, which is why it is urgent to have your watch face repaired.

Have the dial of a watch repaired by the brand's after-sales service

Faced with such an event in the life of your watch, contacting the manufacturer should be your first instinct. The objective here is to obtain an initial diagnosis and a repair estimate.

Have your dial repaired by a specialist watchmaker

The second option is to call on a specialized watchmaker.

The latter, like the brand's after-sales service, will examine your watch and offer you a repair estimate. Do not hesitate to consult several specialists if you wish to refine the amount of repairs.

However, remain vigilant about the professionalism and seriousness of the specialist.

Repairing a watch yourself (not recommended)

If you have a repair kit and also have the skills to perform this type of maintenance, don't hesitate. Be careful, however, if your watch is still under warranty, it will be canceled. A watch being a jewel of precision and technology, such an attempt is risky.

When you break the dial of your watch, the best solution is to contact the brand's after-sales service. Delivery times may be longer, but you have the guarantee of a well-done repair.
