WHY kelvanen

Thoughtful Repair, Transparent Process

Honest Assessment

We share our findings before any work begins. If a repair isn't worthwhile, we'll tell you upfront rather than proceed without your understanding.

Proper Tooling

Our workshop is fitted with Witschi timing equipment, Bergeon hand-setting tools, and Swiss-formulated cleaning solutions — the same tools found in authorized service centres.

Service Documentation

Every completed service includes a record card detailing the work performed, parts replaced, and timing results. This is yours to keep for your records.

Realistic Timelines

We give you an accurate estimate of turnaround time at the start. If sourcing a specific part takes longer, we keep you informed throughout the process.

Careful Handling

Your watch is stored securely in our workshop during the repair process. We handle each piece with the same care as if it were part of our own collection.

Central Location

Our Bangsar workshop is easy to reach from most parts of KL. Drop your watch in person or arrange a consultation during our regular operating hours.

QUESTIONS

Commonly Asked

How long does a Swiss movement service take?
A standard Swiss movement service typically takes between 10 to 15 working days. This allows time for full disassembly, ultrasonic cleaning, part inspection, lubrication, reassembly, and timing regulation. If specific parts need to be sourced, we'll inform you and adjust the timeline accordingly.
Do I need an appointment to drop off my watch?
Walk-ins are welcome during our regular hours. However, if you'd like to sit down for a consultation and discuss your watch's condition in detail, booking a time slot helps us give you the attention your piece deserves. You can reach us by phone or through the contact form below.
What brands do you service?
We work with watches that use Swiss movements from ETA, Sellita, Valjoux, and Peseux, which covers a wide range of brands. For quartz caliber replacement, we handle most standard and mid-range references. If you're unsure whether your watch falls within our scope, feel free to get in touch — we're happy to have a look and advise.
How much does a bezel insert replacement cost?
Our standard bezel insert replacement starts at RM 1,200. The final cost depends on the type of insert required — ceramic, aluminium, or acrylic — and whether custom colour matching is needed. We provide a clear quote after examining your watch so there are no surprises.
Is my watch safe during the repair process?
All watches in our care are stored securely at our Bangsar workshop. We maintain a detailed log of every piece received, and our workspace is monitored. Your watch stays in one place, handled only by our watchmaker, from intake to completion.
Do you provide any documentation after service?
Yes. Every completed service comes with a record card noting what was done, which parts were replaced, the lubrication used, and timing results measured on our Witschi machine. This card is useful for your personal records and may support future resale value.
