Vacheron Service · Munich Atelier

Vacheron Constantin service for the oldest manufacture.

From the workshop · Vacheron Constantin

Full overhaul, crystal replacement, water resistance, movement service for complications. Overseas, Patrimony, Traditionnelle, Historiques, Métiers d'Art — with Geneva standard, manufacture oils and documented rates.

Vacheron Constantin is the oldest continuously producing watch manufacture in the world — in Geneva since 1755, without interruption. To service a Vacheron is to follow a tradition no other manufacturer shares at this length. The Maltese Cross on every movement stands for that standard.

In our Munich workshop we service Overseas, Patrimony, Traditionnelle, Historiques and Métiers d'Art. With manufacture oils, to Geneva specifications, with the care the Hallmark of Geneva demands. Complications — Perpetual Calendar, Moon Phase, Tourbillon — we work to the specific VC workflows. Service, maintenance, repair, crystal replacement, polishing and cleaning, bracelet service or complication work — all under one roof, with a documented service protocol. Vacheron collectors from Munich and the surrounding area hand over directly at the atelier in Grünwald; from anywhere in Europe we accept insured shipping.

Why Time Boutique for your Vacheron

Four reasons your Vacheron Constantin is in the right hands with us.

Hallmark of Geneva, observed

01

We work to the specifications of the Hallmark of Geneva (Poinçon de Genève) Vacheron has met since 1885 — hand-polished screws, visible Côtes de Genève, hand-finished anglage. With every service the movement's character is preserved.

Experience with complex movements

02

Vacheron complications — Perpetual Calendar, Annual Calendar, Tourbillon, Moon Phase, complications combinations — require understanding of the whole mechanism. We do not open a movement without that understanding.

Polishing in Geneva discipline

03

Vacheron cases have precise lines, slim lugs, polished chamfers. We polish only on request, with absolute restraint, preserving the original geometry. The Geneva school allows no material loss at the lugs.

12 months warranty

04

Full overhaul with documented service protocol, rates measured in five positions, water resistance test. 12 months warranty on the movement.

What is special about a Vacheron

Vacheron Constantin has existed without interruption since 1755 — longer than any other watch manufacture. That continuity shapes every movement: the Maltese Cross on the bridge, the Hallmark of Geneva (Poinçon de Genève), Côtes de Genève on every visible component, hand-finished anglage. To open a Vacheron is to do so with respect for 269 years of history.

What does a Vacheron Constantin service cost?

Costs vary depending on the model, caliber, complication and scope. A Patrimony Manual sits on a different scale to an Overseas Chronograph or a Perpetual Calendar — and a single repair, crystal swap or bracelet service on yet another. A concrete assessment is made after intake inspection. Every estimate is free of charge and without obligation. For a first indication by phone we are reachable in Munich at +49 89 38164962.

What we do for your Vacheron

Six service building blocks, tuned to classics and complications.

Full overhaul

Movement opened, ultrasonically cleaned, worn parts replaced, lubricated with manufacture oils, rates re-regulated in five positions — to Geneva specifications.

Complication service

Dedicated workflow for Perpetual Calendar (Cal. 1120 QP), Annual Calendar, Moon Phase, Tourbillon, Chronograph (Cal. 1141, 5200). Complications require more time — we take it.

Crystal replacement

Sapphire crystal replaced to original specification. For vintage Patrimony also classic profiles. New gasket, final water resistance test.

Water resistance (Overseas)

Pressure testing to 150 m for the Overseas range, classic water resistance test for Patrimony and Historiques. Gaskets replaced.

Careful polishing

Only on request. Preserving original chamfers, slim lugs and the Geneva line. No material loss, no change to original geometry.

Authentication

Verification against Vacheron references: movement with Maltese Cross and Hallmark of Geneva, dial, crown, bezel, bracelet, clasp, serial number.

The Métiers d'Art line — enamel work, guilloché dials, skeletonisations — requires special discipline in service. We touch no enamel surface, no guilloché detail. For the Overseas range (introduced 1996, modernised 2016) we work to the specific sport-watch specifications — integrated bracelet, interchangeable straps, higher water resistance.
