Chronographs & Professional Watches
Careful Diagnosis for Complex Breitling Watches
Breitling watches can combine mechanical chronographs, rotating bezels, multiple indications, specialist quartz movements and substantial water-resistant cases. Accurate diagnosis comes before repair.
We inspect the movement, winding and setting system, chronograph functions, crown, pushers, crystal, seals, case and bracelet before preparing an estimate. Vintage pieces are approached with particular care so unnecessary cosmetic changes are avoided.

Are you an authorised Breitling service centre?
No. Marcus Tempus is an independent watch workshop providing specialist servicing and repair for suitable Breitling watches from our Barnet workshop.
Can you service Breitling chronographs?
We assess and service suitable mechanical Breitling chronographs. The exact work depends on the calibre, condition and technical requirements of the watch.
Can you service quartz Breitling watches?
Selected quartz and SuperQuartz Breitling watches can be assessed for battery, electrical and movement-related faults. Suitability depends on the model and parts requirements.
Do you pressure test Breitling watches?
Yes. Pressure testing and seal assessment are carried out where appropriate. A watch must be inspected before any statement about water resistance can be made.
Can you restore a vintage Breitling?
Yes, subject to inspection and component availability. We take a preservation-led approach and aim to retain original components and period character wherever practical.
