Basic Guide to Watch Repair Startup

The first thing you need to start up a workplace for watch repair is a clean room or a spare room. You will then need to purchase a bench to work on it, a flat and square edged table is recommended.

The table top should be clean and flat so that any bits (watch parts) lying around can be detected easily.

Next, you need an adjustable chair so that you can work comfortably at different heights with a straight back.

A fluorescent table lamp is needed to lit up the working place, prefer a small table lamp that is not bulky to actually fill up most of your working bench space.

You should also ensure there are no other things placed on the floor that will hinder your search if ever you accidentally dropped some parts. A clean and neat floor is recommended so that the parts can be easily located and swept up.
