Fine Watch Repair and Restoration

ORBIS Atelier is coming to Hong Kong! 🇭🇰🔧

ORBIS Atelier is coming to Hong Kong! 🇭🇰🔧
We are teaming up with @greenauctioneers for a special pop-up watchmaking Atelier from June 17-21, right in the heart of the city.

After a successful pop-up atelier in Taiwan, we are proud to bring our Swiss expertise to a new destination, offering our services to HK collectors with our good friends from Green Auctioneers. Together, we aim to connect watch lovers with watch experts and celebrate the craft behind every timepiece.

We aim to promote the welfare of watch preservation during Green Auctioneers’ Viewings for their June Auctions. You will be able to explore their latest auction highlights, and also get your own timepiece serviced or restored—inside and out.

Because watchmaking is as much about what’s under the dial as what’s on your wrist.

📩 Book your appointment now at info@orbis.swiss or just send us a DM - slots are limited!

Not your average pit stop 🏁 This Richard Mille

Not your average pit stop 🏁

This Richard Mille RM 005-FM Titanium "Felipe Massa" just crossed the finish line of an in-depth repair in our workshop. A watch built like a race car—lightweight, aggressive, and brutally complex—deserves nothing less than precision engineering at every stage.

We fully disassembled the Vaucher-based automatic movement, addressed oxidation on key components, replaced worn seals, and brought the rotor and function selector system back to peak performance.

Case and bezel were carefully cleaned—no polishing, of course, because raw titanium doesn’t pretend. Just like Felipe.

Back on the wrist, back on track. Ready to take on G-forces - or just Monday.

Jet lag’s worst enemy is back on wrist. ✈️🔧

This Rolex GMT-Master II just came out of a full service in the workshop—movement cleaned, lubricated, regulated, and now ticking like it’s ready to cross time zones without breaking a sweat.

The dual-time complication was carefully adjusted, the bezel action restored to that satisfying click, and every seal replaced to keep things watertight from JFK to Narita.

Because whether you’re actually flying or just flexing at the terminal, your GMT needs to run smoother than your travel plans.

German precision, Swiss patience. You’ll need bo

German precision, Swiss patience. You’ll need both to bring a Datograph Perpetual back to life.

This A. Lange & Söhne 410.025, housing the intricate L952.1 movement, just completed an extensive movement repair in our workshop. A marvel of Saxon watchmaking, yes—but one that doesn’t forgive the slightest mistake.

The calibre was fully disassembled, cleaned, and carefully corrected, from the column wheel to the perpetual calendar cascade. Bevelling reworked by hand, gold chatons re-seated, and black-polished steel brought back to mirror brilliance. Regulated across multiple positions for the performance this movement deserves.

It’s not just running again—it’s singing in perfect German harmony.

From deterioration to radiance — the restoration

From deterioration to radiance — the restoration of this Patek Philippe 3970E is now complete.

What arrived in a state of deep corrosion has been brought back to life through months of patient, uncompromising work. Every component, from the perpetual calendar mechanism to the split-seconds chronograph, has been carefully restored to its original function and finish.

The movement, once covered in rust, now gleams with renewed beauty: anglage redefined, black polish mirror-finished, satin surfaces rebrushed—all executed in the spirit of Patek Philippe’s highest standards. Case, pushers, and dial have been preserved with care, allowing the watch to tell its story without erasing its past.

An iconic reference, reborn with respect and precision.

A legend, reawakened.

The Ebel 1911 Chronograph, powered by the iconic El Primero 400 movement, has just returned from a full service in our workshop—running flawlessly and ready to be worn the way it was meant to be. Timeless proportions, sculpted case lines, and that unmistakable rhythm beneath the dial.

This is a piece that speaks quietly but leaves a lasting impression.

Now sold.

A study in balance and refinement: this Jaquet Dro

A study in balance and refinement: this Jaquet Droz Grande Seconde (ref. 003196) is currently receiving a complete service in our Atelier.

The signature off-centred dial, with its famous blue hues and elegant minimalism, houses a sophisticated automatic movement that has been fully disassembled for inspection and cleaning.

All dried oils have been meticulously removed and replaced, and every component—gear train, escapement, and winding system—has been checked, adjusted, and reassembled with care. Regulation is underway to restore the smooth, graceful sweep that defines the Grande Seconde’s identity.

A contemporary classic, serviced with the respect it deserves.

Timeless elegance, meticulously preserved: this Pa

Timeless elegance, meticulously preserved: this Patek Philippe 5038G, a rare perpetual calendar in white gold, is currently undergoing a complete service in our workshop.

Every component of the ultra-thin automatic calibre is being carefully disassembled, cleaned, and inspected. Particular attention is paid to the delicate moonphase, calendar, and micro-rotor assembly, ensuring precise function and flawless synchronisation.

All dried and degraded oils have been carefully removed and freshly reapplied to ensure optimal performance and longevity. Clearances have been checked and adjustments made to restore the movement to factory-level performance. The case and dial—true to the discreet elegance of the 5038G—remain untouched, preserving the watch’s original patina.

A discreet reference, but a technical masterpiece.

A challenge worthy of the finest watchmaking exper

A challenge worthy of the finest watchmaking expertise: this Patek Philippe 3970E is currently undergoing a complex restoration in our Atelier.

Every single component—from the movement to the case, pushers, and even the smallest screws—was covered in rust. Our watchmaker is meticulously cleaning, treating, and restoring each part, ensuring the original architecture and finishes are fully preserved.

Excessively worn or damaged components have been rebuilt with respect for traditional craftsmanship, particularly in the decorative finishing: black polishing, satin finishing, and bevelling. Each surface is gradually regaining its original brilliance and perfection.

A long and meticulous process—because a Patek Philippe deserves nothing less than restoration excellence.

Precision in progress: this Richard Mille RM 005-F

Precision in progress: this Richard Mille RM 005-FM in Titanium, powered by the Vaucher 6200 movement, has undergone a meticulous restoration with us.

The movement showed clear signs of oxidation, compromising both its aesthetics and performance. Our watchmaker is in the process of carefully cleaning and de-rusting each component, ensuring the integrity of the calibre is fully preserved. Every step is taken with precision, maintaining the high standards that define Richard Mille’s engineering excellence.

Soon, this RM 005-FM will be back to its full potential—where innovation meets uncompromising craftsmanship.

Our pop-up workshop was a huge success! We had an amazing time repairing exclusive watches for our clients and friends in Taiwan ☀️

It wasn't an easy adventure though: with roughly 100kg of luggages, many fragiles machines and dozens of rare watches, a trip like this one requires months of careful planning - but it is 1000% worth it! 🤩

Looking forward to our next trips around the globe 🌍

The art of pivot planting 🔧

When restoring a cherished timepiece, precision is everything. One of the most delicate and transformative techniques we undertake is pivot planting—a meticulous process that breathes new life into worn or damaged pivot holes within a movement plate.

🔍 Before: Over time, friction, dust and wear can enlarge the pivot holes, causing instability and reduced accuracy. These imperfections compromise the smooth ticking rhythm every watch enthusiast treasures.

🛠️ The Process: Using specialized tools, we carefully bore out the worn section and expertly install a new jewel or metal pivot sleeve, perfectly aligned for optimal balance. This step demands micrometric precision and years of mastery.

✨ After: The restored pivot returns the movement to its intended performance, reducing friction and ensuring the accuracy and longevity that defines true craftsmanship. The transformation is subtle but vital—often the difference between a ticking memory and a dormant keepsake.

We take pride in preserving not just the function but the soul of each timepiece entrusted to us. ⏱️
