Zenith Watch Repair & Service

Zenith publishes its service rates, so you know the factory price before you ask anyone else, and registering a watch bought since 2022 stretches its warranty to 5 years.

Zenith factory service

Zenith recommends checking a watch's water resistance and accuracy every two to three years. Its published rates are in Swiss francs:

  • Complete service: CHF 500 for a simple mechanical watch up to CHF 750 for a complicated chronograph.
  • Partial service: CHF 200 to 300.
  • By estimate: El Primero haute horlogerie pieces and historical mechanical watches.
  • Declined quote: CHF 100.
  • Service warranty: one year.
  • New-watch warranty: 2 years, plus 3 more for watches bought from January 1, 2022 and registered on Zenith's website.

The warranty applies at authorized Zenith service centers worldwide, with the guarantee certificate and proof of purchase from an authorized dealer.

Independent Zenith service

Use Zenith while the warranty runs. Once it ends, an independent with Zenith experience is an option, especially for vintage pieces that Zenith prices only by estimate. Ask which Zenith calibers they have serviced, and compare their quote with Zenith's published rate.

Before you ship, ask

  • Is my watch still under Zenith's warranty (5 years if registered)? If so, use Zenith first.
  • How does your quote compare with Zenith's published rate for my watch?
  • Have you serviced this Zenith caliber, such as an El Primero, before?
  • For vintage pieces: will you keep the original dial and hands?
  • Are you authorized by Zenith for service, and where does that show on Zenith's own website?
  • Will the work be done on site, or sent elsewhere? If it is sent on, where does it go, and does the quote add a fee on top of the service center's charge?

Providers on this page were researched against our Standard at the time they were listed and are rechecked periodically. Details can change between checks, so confirm terms, pricing and turnaround directly with the provider before sending your watch.
