Wrapping and Packaging Advice
How To Safely Package Your Watch
At Precision Watch Repairs, we understand how important your timepiece is to you. To ensure your watch reaches us securely and without damage during transit, we recommend following these simple packaging guidelines:
Wrap Your Watch Securely
Use bubble wrap that is at least 3cm thick to completely wrap your watch, ensuring all parts are cushioned. If bubble wrap isn’t available, rolling your watch in a plastic bag can provide sufficient protection for transit.Choose a Sturdy Container
Place the wrapped watch in a robust and rigid box or container. The container should ideally fit the watch snugly. If there is extra space in the box, fill it with additional bubble wrap, packing foam, or crumpled paper to prevent the watch from moving around during transit.Include Instructions and Contact Details
Enclose your completed repair form, packing sheet, or written instructions inside the box. Be sure to include your name, contact information, and any specific details about the repair or service required.Seal the Box Securely
Use strong nylon or vinyl packing tape to seal all edges and openings of the box. This ensures that the package remains intact during its journey to our workshop.Label Clearly
Write or attach the delivery address clearly on the box. For added peace of mind, we recommend sending your watch via Royal Mail Special Delivery. This service ensures your package is tracked, signed for, and fully insured during transit. It provides the highest level of security for valuable items like watches, reducing the risk of loss or damage. Retain your proof of postage and tracking number to monitor your package’s journey and confirm its safe arrival at our workshop.
By following these steps, you can help protect your watch during transit and allow our skilled technicians to focus on restoring your timepiece to its best condition. If you have any questions about packaging or shipping your watch, don’t hesitate to contact us for assistance.
