Our expertise
At Babla’s we specialise in TAG watch repairs. We are able to carry out partial repairs such a crown replacements on a range of TAG Heuer models including TAG Heuer Formula 1, TAG Heuer Aquaracer, TAG Heuer Carrera and all other models.
We only use original TAG Heuer parts and all repairs are carried out on-site in our swiss standard workshop using the latest equipment.
Common reasons
1) The threads of the crown/case may have worn out - therefore there is a problem screwing the crown down tight
2) The crown has snapped at the winding stem due to excessive force whilst adjusting the time
What does a crown replacement involve?
1) Replacing the crown/screw down crown with an original TAG Heuer replacement
2) Replacing the winding stem (part which attaches crown to the movement) if this has snapped and is necessary
3) Resealing and pressure testing the watch once the replacement has been carried out to ensure it is water resistant to the required standard
4) A battery replacement can be carried out at the same time if required
How long does it take and what are the costs?
The cost for a crown and stem replacement is dependant on the exact model and how the crown has broken. The repair can usually be turned around in 10-14 working days depending on availability of parts. We can provide a more accurate estimate after assessment of the watch.
