Year-on-year changes in the prices of the same items in the price lists of the same companies. We obtain historical prices from archived versions of company websites (Internet Archive), each accompanied by a verbatim quotation. How we calculate.

What affects the price
- type of watch: quartz (cheaper servicing) or mechanical/automatic (more expensive)
- watch brand and class (standard brands versus premium brands: Omega, Rolex, IWC, Breitling)
- scope of work: battery replacement, mechanism inspection or complete restoration of the case and dial
- condition of the watch and availability of parts (e.g. parts imported from Switzerland increase the time and price)
- whether it is an authorised service centre or an independent watch repair workshop
Usually included in the price
- cleaning and lubricating the mechanism
- inspection and regulation of the watch movement
Usually charged separately
- the cost of replacing more expensive components such as the case or bracelet, if they are not damaged
- restoration of an antique clock or watch, priced individually after inspection
Prices depend greatly on the watch brand and type: a basic quartz watch service often costs PLN 150-600, a mechanical watch movement service starts at around PLN 549, while servicing premium brands (Omega, Rolex, IWC, Breitling) can cost PLN 800-1860 or more. Comprehensive restoration of an antique watch (dial, hands, case, movement) can be a lengthy process, taking 10-12 months, and some service centres price it only on an individual basis.
Prices from customers and companies
Two types of entries: customers state how much they paid for the entire job and rate the contractor; service providers enter their price lists. Customer entries have three reliability levels: ✓ verified: invoice or receipt (the editorial team has seen a document matching the entry), ✓ verified: declaration (the author confirmed the entry using a link sent by e-mail) and unverified (how we verify entries); we do not verify company price lists. Price lists entered by companies are not included in the median at the top of the page; customer amounts are included only for services priced as a complete service.
