Maintenance Advice
Quartz Lorus Watch
When a quartz watch stops ticking, the typical solution is to replace the battery. However, if you own a good quality watch, the process is not so simple. You cannot simply take it to your local market. As the Marketeer there likely lacks the experience and knowledge to handle luxury watches. Unlike other watches, water resistant watches require resealing and pressure testing when opened in order to maintain water resistance. If a watch is opened without undergoing these processes, all the protective seals are broken, allowing dirt, dust, and moisture to enter the watch. These contaminants can cause significant damage to the internal mechanism and ultimately lead to an expensive watch servicing bill. Hence, it is always best to get the Lorus watch battery replacement done professionally, as this can delay the service intervals and save you money in the long run.
Frequent watch battery changes
It's important to replace the battery promptly to decrease the risk of potential damage caused by battery leakage, which remains the primary reason why Quartz watches may require servicing. Even top quality Swiss batteries are susceptible to leaking, and even cheap quality batteries can leak while they still have battery life. Thus, it's crucial to use professionals who use the best materials to provide quality watch repairs.
Finding the "cheapest" option may save you money in the short term, but it can cost you more down the line. Keep in mind that regular maintenance is crucial for your watch and is a better solution than waiting for potential damage or issues to arise.
We offer a new Premium watch battery option that guarantees a 100% leak-proof battery, so you need not worry about the battery leaking into your watch. Opting for this option will extend the battery's life and delay watch servicing. Remember, in the world we live in, you pay for what you get, so choose quality over savings.
Watch Polishing and Cleaning
Frequent use of the same watch can lead to complications caused by wear and tear. Among the typical issues are light scratches and the build-up of dirt between the links, which trap dead skin cells, sweat and other debris. This accumulation of dirt between the links can cause corrosion of the pins, resulting in a weaker bracelet. Fortunately, ultrasonic cleaning offers a simple solution that removes all trapped dirt and restores the watch's shine.
As time goes on, watch bracelets are likely to acquire surface scratches, particularly on the clasp, which is the most visible component of the bracelet. For watches that have two tones and contrasting finishes, scratches can diminish the distinction in tone. This is why a full watch polishing service can be an excellent option for bringing the watch back to its original condition. This service is effective in removing scratches from most surfaces of the watch, and it also renews the two-tone finishes, transforming the look of the watch.

Lorus Pressure Test
To ensure that a watch is water-resistant, it is imperative to carry out pressure testing. This process can identify any potential issues that could cause moisture to penetrate the watch. There are several reasons why moisture can penetrate a watch, including worn-out and deteriorated gaskets around the crown, glass, or case back, and poor conditions of the crown or glass. Therefore, pressure testing is an essential aspect of maintaining a watch's integrity.
Watch owners who frequently swim or engage in water sports should be particularly diligent about pressure testing their timepieces. Failure to do so can result in significant damage and financial loss. Moisture penetration can cause several hundred or even thousands of pounds in damages. Hence, regular pressure testing can be a worthwhile investment to prevent such issues.
Lorus Watch Cleaning
On a daily basis, watches come into contact with dirt, and debris starts to accumulate particularly between the links and clasp. Therefore, it is of utmost importance to get your watch cleaned regularly as it helps maintain the life of the watch bracelet and prevents dirt from corroding the pins that hold the bracelet together. Our ultrasonic watch cleaner is perfect for removing all accumulated dirt from your watch, leaving it shiny as new and extending its lifespan by preventing the risk of corrosion.
Lorus Watch Polishing
Watches are meant to be worn and cherished, but the inevitable scratches and signs of wear can leave even the most expensive and luxurious timepieces looking tired and worn-out. That's where our expert watch polishing service comes in. With years of experience in both hand and machine polishing techniques, our skilled team of watchmakers can remove the majority of scratches and restore your watch to its former glory. Trust us to give your cherished timepiece the attention it deserves and that it will come out looking like new again!
Lorus Watch Bracelet Repair
As the age-old adage would have it, "you're only as strong as your weakest link" - A principle that very much applies to the world of watch bracelets. These essential accessories often rely on many different types of pins and spring bars to secure your prized possession onto your wrist. Over time, however, these metal components can weaken and become less effective. In order to keep your watch safe and secure, it's important to take regular preventative action and change out these weaker elements before it's too late. By stepping up and tackling this issue proactively, you can keep your watch in tip-top shape, maximise its lifespan, and enjoy the peace of mind that comes with knowing your watch is always secure.

Lorus Glass Replacement
As a watch owner, it's essential to stay vigilant for signs of wear and tear on your timepiece. One such issue that can arise is a cracked or scratched watch glass, which can lead to even more significant problems if left unaddressed. For instance, a damaged glass can allow moisture and other unwanted substances into the watch, compromising the mechanism and accuracy. Additionally, small glass shards may land on the watch dial, posing a hazard to the user and potentially causing further damage to the watch. Thus, if you observe any signs of a glass issue on your watch, such as a crack or scratch, we strongly recommend seeking professional repair or replacement without delay.
