What We Offer

Our Services

Three focused services, each carried out with the patience the work deserves. Prices and scope are always discussed openly before anything proceeds.

Movement inspection service

Movement Inspection & Service

A thorough inspection of the movement, followed by cleaning, fresh lubrication, and careful regulation. Ideal when a watch is running irregularly or simply due for care. We share our findings in plain language before suggesting further work.

  • Full movement disassembly and cleaning
  • Fresh lubrication and regulation
  • Written report of findings
  • Post-service warranty included

Dial and hand restoration

Hand & Dial Refresh

Careful cosmetic work on tarnished hands, dull dials, and surface marks. We discuss whether to restore or preserve any patina before touching anything — some aged surfaces are worth keeping. Costs are agreed in advance.

  • Hand cleaning or careful replacement
  • Dial surface treatment where appropriate
  • Patina preservation on request
  • No obligation after assessment
฿8,600 Enquire
Vintage movement rebuild

Vintage Movement Rebuild

A patient, thorough rebuild for older mechanical movements — worn components replaced, fatigued springs renewed, and original parts conserved wherever possible. Every rebuild begins with a written plan agreed with the owner.

  • Detailed movement assessment first
  • Worn parts replaced, originals conserved
  • Suitable for collectible & inherited pieces
  • Written plan agreed before work begins

Why Rattana Studio

What Sets Our Work Apart

We approach every timepiece as a guest in the studio — treated with consideration, explained to clearly, and returned in good order.

Bench-Focused Expertise

All work is performed by experienced watchmakers who have spent years at the bench — not outsourced or rushed.

Transparent Assessments

We explain what we find before proceeding. You decide what work — if any — makes sense for your watch and your situation.

Respectful Handling

Vintage, collectible, and sentimental pieces are handled with extra care. Original parts are preserved wherever they can be.

Clear, Agreed Pricing

Service costs are discussed and agreed before any work begins. No surprises when you collect your watch.

Measured Pace

Watchmaking is not a trade that benefits from speed. We work at the pace the movement demands, not at the pace of a production schedule.

Convenient Silom Location

Our studio at 159 Silom Road is easy to reach from across Bangkok — drop in during workshop hours to talk through your watch.

Is Your Watch Due for Attention?

Whether it is running roughly, needs a cosmetic touch, or has been sitting quietly in a drawer for years — we are happy to take a look and share our thoughts without obligation.

Questions & Answers

Things People Often Ask

How do I know which service is right for my watch?
We recommend starting with a consultation — either by phone or by bringing the watch to the studio. We will look at it, ask a few questions about how it has been running, and suggest the most suitable path. There is no cost for this initial conversation.
How long does a typical service take?
A movement inspection and service usually takes two to four weeks. A hand and dial refresh is often quicker. A vintage rebuild can take longer — we will give you an honest estimate once we have studied the movement. We keep you informed if anything changes.
Do you work on all brands of watches?
We work with a wide range of Swiss and Japanese mechanical movements, including many vintage and antique calibres. We are straightforward about cases where a watch falls outside our expertise and will refer you elsewhere if that is the better option for your piece.
Will you replace original parts without asking me first?
No. We document all worn or damaged parts and discuss replacement options with you before ordering anything. Where original parts can be conserved or restored rather than replaced, we will say so. The decision is always yours.
What is included in the post-service warranty?
After a movement service, we offer a warranty covering the work we have carried out. If the watch develops a fault related to our servicing within the warranty period, we will address it at no extra charge. Details are provided in writing when the watch is collected.
How are prices determined?
Listed prices cover the standard scope of each service. If additional work is required — such as sourcing a specific part for a vintage movement — the cost is discussed and agreed before we proceed. You are never committed to work you have not approved.
