I know that I, a Swiss Army watch, have been crafted in the best of the Swiss tradition for technical perfection, strength and reliability and that I am supposed to last a life time.

The people who make me trust me so much that they make me carry an unconditional guarantee for three years. The probability of me giving up in the normal course of time is extremely rare. And, in the inadvertent event of me doing so, there exists a network of authorized service agents throughout Switzerland and in practically every corner of the world to repair me.

Of course, you might well ask: “If you are that good, why such a large network of authorized service centers to carry out Swiss Army watch repair?” Well, though I am built to last a life time and more, three factors contribute to my failing. Technically they are called: a manufacturing fault, an assembly fault or an usage fault. Hence the need to have Swiss Army watch repair centers to get me back on your wrist and running.

Swiss Army Watch Repair: Manufacturing Faults

To the uninitiated, a manufacturing fault occurs when the parts that make me up are fashioned. Though my makers take the utmost care in choosing the material that I am made of are flawless, the fact remains that in some rare occasions a minute flaw creeps in; something that just can’t be helped – even nature slips up at times – and I fail. Another slipup, pardon me, is that I am made by human hands and sad to say, they are not as infallible as I personally would like them to be and they do make minute mistakes while putting me together. That’s an assembly fault. Incidences like these are relatively rare. One of my relatives would tick away perfectly well if left flat on a table but stop ticking a few minutes after his owner wore him. An annoying trait, but you see one of his parts was just a little out of alignment causing the malfunction.

The last and final one is due to the fact that I do wear out, at least some of my parts do. That is natural and unavoidable, even my owner does. The unpardonable error is the way that some people use me. When they have such a wonderful creation on their hands, people should treat me with all the due respect and care that I unquestionably deserve. But humans are a careless lot and I get thrown around and at times really get under a hammer. In my opinion, I think am entitled to stop working for these kind of people. Don’t you?

Now you see why Swiss Army watch repair centers are required. Once I am sent to these places for recuperation by a tweak of a small screw or a major transplantation, the doctors there take good care of me, do the necessary tweaking or transplanting, spruce me up and out I come as good as new. Swiss Army watch repair is an art as identical to the skill that originally went into my making.
