Preserve the Character of Your Vintage Timepiece


Vintage mechanical watches carry more than time—they carry history, craftsmanship and personal stories.


Led by Swiss Federal Master Watchmaker Michael Dubs, IHT provides specialist vintage restoration services in Singapore, approaching every timepiece with respect for its originality, historical integrity and mechanical condition. Wherever possible, the aim is not to erase the passage of time, but to preserve the character that makes each watch unique.


Why Restore with IHT?

Every vintage timepiece presents its own challenges.


Drawing on more than 30 years of experience in the Swiss watch industry, Michael carefully assesses each watch before recommending an appropriate course of action. Restoration decisions are guided by technical judgement, respect for originality and a commitment to preserving the long-term integrity of the timepiece, rather than replacing components unnecessarily.


Restoration May Include

  • Movement repair and overhaul
  • Servicing and regulation
  • Case cleaning and sympathetic refurbishment
  • Sourcing rare replacement parts
  • Fabrication of obsolete components
  • Technical assessment and restoration advice


Fees

As every vintage watch differs in age, condition and complexity, restoration fees are assessed individually following examination of the timepiece.
