Perpetual Time, Doing Their Bit to Repair & Restore Classic Swiss Watches

Owning a classic watch is something of great pride to their owners, and it is an unwritten rule that they are wearing a treasure on their wrist and it is up to them to keep it in good working order during that lifetime. 

Classic watches like Rolex, Audemars Piguet, Omega, Breitling, Baume & Mercier, Blancpain, Breguet, Vacheron Constantin, etc., are all Swiss-made watches; they have been in the business for hundreds of years, perfecting their craft. Fortunately for watch owners in the United Kingdom, companies like PerpetualTime are on hand to maintain, repair, and restore these classic watches back to their former glory. Perpetual Time Reviews for their work showers praise on the quality of craftsmanship that is used to maintain these classic timepieces. 

Classic Swiss watches use automatic or analogue movements, though some makers have started parallel quartz or digital movement lines to be in-tune with modern techniques. Perpetual Time was started by a certified Swiss watchmaker, Alex Photi, who has worked for the best Swiss watchmakers of our time. His repair/restoration workshop in Manchester has received high praise with Perpetual Time Reviews in horologic publications in the UK; it is now easy for classic watch owners to find someone who cares and maintains their watches with great love and attention.

Restoring a classic watch that has not been used for a long time requires a lot of respect and knowledge about the watch movement. Perpetual Time Reviews in magazines have praised Alex Photi for restoring many of the old masterpieces as well as refurbishing them at much lower costs than sending them to the original manufacturer in Switzerland or elsewhere. There is an unwritten law that owners of classic watches are just holding them for the next owner, and that is indeed the motto of Perpetual Time.

Horological emojis were the first

The best emoji of all time is the first emoji. Of course nobody knew that it was an emoji. It is the watch face advertisements showing 10:10. This rule is almost sacrosanct. The reason is simple. It is aesthetically pleasing to watch. The hands do not overlap. The 10:10 position has symmetry and a balance. It also allows for a clear look at the logo of the manufacturer. The reason why it is the world's first emoji is the hands look happy. The company Timex tried out the hands in the 8:20 position. The feedback was it looked grumpy as if the watch face had a frown.

All brands now sport the 10:10 position including the luxury and upmarket brands. Flipping through the website portal of Perpetual-Time ( www.perpetual-time.com ) you can come across the picture of a Rolex Submariner with the hands positioned at 10:10. Perpetual Time had showcased this watch as an example of their restoration service. Not only this is a fine example of a  classic watch restored to its original finish the hands are positioned in true traditional styles that reflect the values of Perpetual Time and its owner Alex Photi.

Alex Photti has imbibed this horological culture after a number of years of working with the Gods of Horology in Switzerland. As a certified WOSTEP (Watchmakers of Switzerland Training Education Program) watchmaker Alex is right up there with the best of the best. Apart from this exacting credential he is also BHI (British Horological Institute) certified, BHI established in 1858 still stands as a testimony of time (pun intended) going about the work of setting national standards and provide training and education for the future generation.

Alex Photti is the Managing Director of Perpetual-Time Limited www.perpetual-time.com. Based in Manchester in the United Kingdom this company specialists in watch restoration and watch servicing. This is not the jeweler-in-a-mall variety of watch repair organisation. Perpetual-Time handles vintage and classic watches that have stood the test of time (again the pun is deliberate).

You could ask who wears watches in this day of digital frenzy all around us. The plethora of cell phones, tablets and watch devices that do everything but tell the time (seriously a millennium will pass before you can discern the time on a 'wearable'as they are termed) are enough to validate the earlier statement of 'who wears a watch in these days?

The answer to that my friend are the countless millions who wear a watch on their wrist not only to tell the time (yes they do- all it takes is a turn of the wrist and without pressing a multitude of buttons or fish out a cell phone) but also because it is an attachment of their self. A watch is an emotional appendage that many have embraced and are proud of it. The vintage watches are mechanical devices that need maintenance. The ilk of Perpetual Time Reviews and others (there are many) provide this service with a degree of professionalism that is a joy to behold. Perpetual Time reviews are witness to the joy-de-vivre that comes through in words expressed by happy owners of watches - they are happy because they have the time.
