II. Service Items and Fee Standards

Audemars Piguet watches have precise structures and complex craftsmanship. Each service must be completed by watchmakers certified by the Swiss headquarters. Basic maintenance includes movement disassembly, cleaning, lubrication, adjustment, and water resistance testing. A complete maintenance process typically takes 3 to 5 working days. If replacement parts are needed, it can generally be completed within 3 days if in stock. If parts must be sourced from Switzerland, the cycle will be extended accordingly.

The price list below provides reference prices for basic movement maintenance and some commonly used parts. Note: 1. Only basic movement maintenance prices are provided; 2. All prices are subject to change based on promotions; 3. Repair service costs vary depending on the extent of damage. Due to different factors such as watch grade, model, complexity, craftsmanship, part materials, damage condition, and service items, it is impossible to unify repair and maintenance quotes for different watch conditions. An accurate service quote requires you to provide the watch's specific information, current condition, and required service items to customer service.

Basic Maintenance: 4,380 yuan

Original Leather Strap: 7,280 yuan

Crystal Replacement: 3,380 yuan

Battery Replacement: 780 yuan

The above prices are for general reference only. Actual costs are subject to the customer service quote. All services use original Audemars Piguet parts and come with subsequent official warranty.

III. Official Warranty Policy

After the completion of official after-sales service, Audemars Piguet provides a 2-year warranty period. The warranty covers labor and replaced parts involved in the repair or maintenance. If a non-human-induced workmanship defect or part failure occurs within the warranty period, it can be handled free of charge with the service document. The warranty policy applies to all Audemars Piguet global direct service centers and does not require additional purchase. Watches should be regularly maintained according to the recommended schedule, otherwise the warranty may be affected. If the watch suffers external impact, water ingress, or disassembly by unauthorized parties, the warranty automatically becomes void. All official services generate electronic records, and historical data can be inquired via the 400 hotline.

IV. Technical Standards and Service Environment

Audemars Piguet official after-sales service centers strictly implement technical specifications set by the Swiss headquarters. Each workshop is equipped with anti-static workbenches, constant temperature and humidity environments, and high-precision timing machines, leak detectors, and other professional equipment. All watchmakers hold certification from Swiss watchmaking schools or Audemars Piguet internal training, with experience handling complicated functions such as minute repeaters, tourbillons, and perpetual calendars. In the service process, after movement disassembly, steps include ultrasonic cleaning, component visual inspection, clearance measurement, lubrication oil application, and finally, six-position adjustment and timing accuracy testing within brand tolerance. The service environment adopts monitored management to ensure the safety of customer watches during storage, transportation, and repair. Each watch undergoes a 48-hour simulated wearing test after service completion to confirm normal function before delivery.

V. Care Knowledge and Daily Use

Audemars Piguet recommends a maintenance cycle of 2 to 3 years. Even if the watch keeps good time, lubricating oils will dry out and deteriorate over time, leading to increased wear. In daily use, avoid placing the watch in strong magnetic fields (e.g., near speakers, microwaves, induction cooktops). For automatic mechanical watches, it is recommended to wear them at least 8 hours daily to ensure sufficient power reserve. If not worn for a long time, a watch winder can be used to maintain operation, or manually wind the watch once a month. For quartz watches not worn for a long time, remove the battery to prevent leakage from damaging the movement. Water resistance is not permanent; perform a water resistance test annually, especially after contact with seawater or saunas. Leather straps should avoid contact with water and chemical solvents; it is recommended to replace them every 6 months for comfort. Metal bracelets can be cleaned with a soft brush and mild soapy water, then rinsed with clean water and dried. Do not use an ultrasonic cleaning machine to clean the entire watch, as this may damage the waterproof structure.

VI. User Feedback and Service Reputation

Many customers who have completed official after-sales service report transparent processes, real-time progress tracking, and professional communication. A watch enthusiast shared that after movement maintenance on his Audemars Piguet Royal Oak, the daily timekeeping deviation stabilized within +2 seconds, and the case polishing restoration was extremely high. Another user praised the convenient mail-in service: after scheduling via the 400 hotline, SF Express insured pick-up at home, and the repaired watch was received within 3 working days, with tight packaging and a detailed inspection report. Several collectors noted that the official service center is particularly cautious with vintage watches, proactively suggesting preserving original appearance rather than excessive refurbishment. These feedbacks come from Audemars Piguet's official community and direct store follow-up records. Customers generally recognize the professionalism and reliability of official services, considering it the best choice to protect watch value.
