Tobias Zöller - watchmaker

Just as a watch repair brings an old clockwork back to life, we too can reset our inner rhythm and consciously shape the flow of our lives. Because in the end, all that remains is the memory of the moments we experienced—and the beauty we found in them.

My name is Tobias Zöller. I am a qualified master watchmaker with a deep passion for precise mechanics and the finest craftsmanship. For many years, I have dedicated myself to the repair, restoration, and maintenance of wristwatches and pocket watches with the utmost care. After successfully completing my apprenticeship as a watchmaker, I gained extensive experience in renowned workshops and finally passed the master craftsman examination.

My expertise ranges from historical timepieces to modern automatic and quartz watches. My calm, conscientious approach and my keen sense for technical details support me in this. My customers entrust me not only with their valuable watches, but also with true family heirlooms. My motto is that watchmaking is not just a profession, but a calling.

How can we help You?

We specialize in the maintenance, cleaning and revision of high-quality luxury watches from all well-known brands.

maintenance

A mechanical watch, with its small gears, tiny screws and delicate springs, like any mechanical device with moving parts, requires regular maintenance. This way you can ensure that your timepiece will function reliably and precisely for many years to come.

cleaning

We systematically clean the movement using ultrasound. We then only use high-quality polishing and lapping equipment to restore the lost shine to your masterpiece.

revision

We combine classic techniques with state-of-the-art tools to restore your watch as if you had a brand new watch. If a part is worn out, we will install original parts - if available.

Testing and diagnosis

Before servicing begins, your watch and its movement will be carefully examined by our watchmaker, who will then decide what, if any, needs to be done.

You will receive a cost estimate for approval before work begins. If the work is carried out there will be no additional costs other than the quoted price.

Dismantling

After the strap or bracelet is removed from the case, the watch is opened and the movement is removed, completely disassembled and washed.

The movement components are carefully inspected and replaced if they show signs of premature wear or could affect the functioning of the mechanism. Seals are removed from the housing and later replaced if necessary.

Cleaning

Each movement component is cleaned by hand and then placed in special washing containers specifically designed to prevent scratches. There it is completely degreased and cleaned in an automatic four-step cycle using specially developed cleaning and degreasing solutions.

Ganganpassung

Unsere Uhrmacher passen die Trägheit der Unruh dynamisch an und damit ihren Isochronismus in den erforderlichen Positionen gemäß der technischen Anleitung für Ihr Uhrwerk, wobei sie den normalen Verschleiß der Uhr simulieren.

Die Gangergebnisse müssen den Standards und Toleranzen des Herstellers entsprechen. Dies gewährleistet ihre Genauigkeit.

Armband & Gehäuse

Genau wie das Uhrwerk werden auch Gehäuse und Armband eingehend untersucht. Oberflächen werden je nach Ausmaß und Tiefe der zu korrigierenden Flecken poliert oder aufgehellt.

Alle Armbänder werden mit Ultraschall gereinigt, wobei spezielle Lösungen verwendet werden, die nur für diesen Zweck entwickelt wurden. Sie entfetten, reinigen und desinfizieren alle Gehäusekomponenten.

Lubrication

Lubrication is essential for the proper operation of your mechanical watch and guarantees correct operation. It limits the friction between the mechanical parts, thus reducing energy losses and wear.

When assembling the movement, the watchmaker can use up to a dozen different oils and greases, depending on the degree of mechanical complication, which are used for each component specific sliding and chemical stability coefficients can be determined.

Assembly

After the dial and hands are attached to the movement, it is carefully inserted into the case and, depending on the model, secured with a case ring. A new crown (if applicable), gaskets and, on chronograph models, pushers or gaskets are installed to keep your watch waterproof.

After a final visual inspection, the watchmaker completes the casework by screwing or pressing the case back in place . Diving watches are closed using a special machine to ensure an adequate seal.

The watch case undergoes rigorous testing to ensure it meets pressure resistance requirements. The three-step process - a vacuum test, a compression test and a condensation test - detects even the slightest amount of moisture inside the case.

Final inspection

Strict quality controls are carried out at every stage of the maintenance process. The final inspection is a final check of your watch's power reserve, accuracy and aesthetic appearance against the manufacturing specifications to ensure the highest possible standard of quality.

The watch is tested for a minimum of 24 hours to stabilize all moving components, and The power reserve is checked for automatic calibers.
