— What We Offer
The Case for Choosing
Escapement
Sound work, clear communication, and results you can verify — that's the basis on which we ask for your trust.

Six Reasons to Bring Your Watch to Escapement
Each of these reflects something we actually do — not marketing language, but working practice.
Honest Assessment
We look at the piece before we quote, and we tell you what we find — including things that may not need attention yet. No pressure to approve more than is warranted.
Calibrated Timing Checks
Mechanical movements leave us regulated and verified on a timing machine. The rate is recorded in your service documentation.
Actual Pressure Testing
Resistance is confirmed with equipment, not assumed from a gasket change. If a watch doesn't pass, you know before it goes in the water.
Full Service Documentation
A written record of every job, covering what was done, what parts were used, and any observations. Valuable for your records and for future watchmakers.
Surface-Respectful Finishing
Refinishing follows original surface geometry. Brushed areas stay brushed; polished bevels stay polished. The character of the piece is maintained.
Vintage Experience
Older movements require different handling — slower, more careful, with sourcing networks for period parts. We've done that work and know what it takes.
02 — In Detail
Each Benefit, Explained
Professional Expertise
Over a Decade at the Bench
Watchmaking knowledge develops slowly — there's no shortcut to understanding how movements age, why certain failures occur, or how to approach a calibre that hasn't been opened in thirty years. The work we do reflects time spent on real problems, not theory.
- Mechanical and quartz movement experience
- Vintage calibre identification and handling
- Parts sourcing across European and Asian markets
12+
Years of hands-on watchmaking experience across multiple movement types

Equipment & Method
Workshop Tools That Match the Work
Ultrasonic cleaning, dry and wet pressure testing, calibrated timing equipment, and a proper watchmaker's bench. The tools exist because the services require them — not as a display.
- Ultrasonic movement and case cleaning
- Dry and wet pressure testing to stated ratings
- Electronic timing for rate regulation verification
Customer Service
Clear Communication Throughout
We tell you what we find, what we recommend, and what it costs — before work begins. If something changes during a job, you hear about it before it affects the price. The vintage restoration program includes staged updates specifically because that work takes time.
- Pre-work evaluation and written quote
- Progress updates for extended restoration work
- No work proceeds without your approval
"No surprises on the invoice"
Our standing policy — the price we quote is the price you pay, unless you approve a change.

Pricing & Value
Transparent, Fixed-Scope Pricing
Each service has a defined scope and a stated price. You know what's included before anything starts. Parts sourcing for vintage work is the one area where cost can vary, and we discuss that openly before proceeding.
- Three fixed-scope service options
- Prices stated in Thai Baht, no hidden additions
- Parts costs discussed and approved separately

04 — What Sets Us Apart
Distinctive Features of the Escapement Approach
Staged Restoration Photography
For vintage work, we photograph the piece at key stages — disassembly, mid-overhaul, and reassembly. A record of the process, not just the outcome.
No-Pressure Evaluation
You can bring a piece in for assessment without committing to any service. We'll tell you what it needs; the decision is entirely yours.
Parts Network Spanning Asia & Europe
For vintage pieces, we work with suppliers in both regions — expanding what's achievable for older calibres significantly beyond what a single-market workshop can offer.
