Three Areas of Work

What We Do at This Bench

Each service is scoped, priced and described before work begins. Prices are stated from the outset; additional parts require your approval.

Methodology

How Each Service Is Carried Out

Every job at Detik Warisan follows the same intake sequence: visual examination, documentation of the condition as found, communication of the findings to the client, and approval before work begins. This applies whether the piece is coming in for a full overhaul or a simple strap change.

The three service areas are kept distinct rather than bundled. A client needing only a new crystal does not pay for movement work they did not ask for. Where we find something else worth addressing during an inspection, we note it in the condition report without incorporating it into the scope unless asked.

Across All Services

Shared Technical Standards

Client Data Privacy

Contact details and service records are stored securely and used only for the relevant job. No marketing distribution without consent.

Pre-Work Documentation

All work is preceded by a written condition report. No task begins without the client's decision to proceed.

Reference Library

Manufacturer service bulletins and calibre-specific lubrication data inform each overhaul. Applied viscosity matches the specification for the individual calibre.

Pressure Testing Equipment

Calibrated dry pressure testing applied after gasket work. Results recorded numerically, not restated as a general performance claim.

Timing Machine Records

Post-overhaul rate measured in six positions. The trace is provided with the piece — a factual record rather than a verbal assurance.

Walk-In Policy

All clients are welcome during workshop hours without prior appointment. Bracelet work is typically completed while you wait.

Pricing

Starting Prices by Service

All prices are starting figures. The condition report confirms the total before any work is approved. Additional parts, where required, are quoted and approved separately.
