Sertec Madrid: 34 Years of Trusted Luxury Watch Repair
Official Independent Workshop for Richemont, Swatch & LVMH Groups – Since 1992
📍 A Legacy of Trust: 34 Years Serving Madrid
For 34 years, Sertec (Servicio Técnico de Relojería) has been the most trusted name in luxury watch repair across Madrid.
Founded in 1992, Sertec was built on a simple promise: to offer excellence, honesty, and technical mastery in every single repair. Not through marketing. Not through flashy promises. Through word‑of‑mouth reputation earned one watch at a time.
Today, Sertec is not just a workshop – it is a Madrid horology institution. Collectors, professionals, and families have entrusted their most valuable timepieces to Sertec for three generations. That level of trust is not given lightly. It is earned through decades of consistent quality, transparent advice, and genuine care for every watch that comes through the door.
"Confianza depositada por nuestros clientes a lo largo de los años" – this is not just a phrase on their website. It is the foundation of everything Sertec does.
🏆 Official Certifications Earned Through Excellence
Sertec's reputation opened doors that remain closed to most independent workshops. They became the first independent workshop in Madrid authorised to service luxury watches from the world's most demanding groups:
Richemont Group (Official Authorisation)
Cartier, Jaeger‑LeCoultre, IWC Schaffhausen, Panerai, Baume & Mercier, Montblanc
Swatch Group (Official Authorisation)
Omega, Longines, Rado, Tissot, Hamilton, Mido, Certina, Balmain
LVMH Group (Official Authorisation)
TAG Heuer, Zenith
Why this matters for you: These brands do not certify just anyone. Sertec earned this status through decades of technical excellence and rigorous training in Switzerland. When you bring your watch to Sertec, you are placing it in the hands of watchmakers who have proven themselves to the most demanding manufacturers in the world.
