MAINTENANCE

For more than a century, L'Epée 1839 has been developing and producing its mechanical movements in its own Manufacture, currently based in Delémont in the Swiss Jura. L'Epée 1839 clocks are produced according to the most stringent quality and reliability criteria. To ensure you enjoy the beauty and precision of your clock for many years to come, the Manufacture recommends that it is serviced after a few years (between 3 to 5 years) by a specialist certified by the L'Epée 1839 After-Sales Service team, or that you contact the latter directly to determine the best possible solution for restoring your clock to its original splendor.

All our clocks are produced by hand, piece by piece, by our master clockmakers and are rigorously tested. We therefore guarantee them against any manufacturing or operational defects for two years from the date of purchase according to the following conditions: Broken springs and damage caused by incorrect usage are excluded from the international warranty, as is any possible oxidation caused by the local climate. The warranty certificate duly filled in and signed by the retailer must be sent with the clock for any repairs carried out under warranty.

The clock is then reassembled and the movement checked. Special emphasis is placed on the power reserve, the activation of any complications where applicable, and the accuracy of the movement.
All these checks are then approved by a final quality and aesthetics inspection.
