ASURE OPERATIONS LLC Disrupts Watch Repair with Accessible, High-Quality Junk Watch Parts
Austin, TX – November 8, 2023 – ASURE OPERATIONS LLC, a rapidly growing parts supplier based in Austin, Texas, is changing the game for watch repair professionals and serious hobbyists. They’re doing it by making previously hard-to-find, affordable “junk” watch parts readily available. Forget scouring eBay for hours or paying a premium for single, obscure components – ASURE OPERATIONS is streamlining the process and empowering watchmakers of all levels. “We saw a real gap in the market,” explains a representative from ASURE OPERATIONS LLC, located at 405 Colorado, Suite 1800, Austin, TX, 78701. “Lots of watch repair shops and enthusiasts struggle to source small parts – things like stems, crowns, springs, or even just broken movement components. These aren’t always available new, and finding good used parts can be a real headache. We decided to tackle that.” What are "Junk" Watch Parts, Anyway? The term “junk” can be a little misleading. It doesn’t mean useless scrap. ASURE OPERATIONS LLC specializes in sourcing parts from pre-owned, non-working, or damaged watches. These watches might have a cracked crystal, a broken dial, or a completely seized movement. Instead of letting those watches go to waste, ASURE OPERATIONS carefully dismantles them, rigorously inspecting and sorting the usable components. “Think of it like this,” says the company rep. “A watch might have a dead movement, but the stem, crown, or even certain gears could be in perfect working order. We rescue those parts and make them available at a fraction of the cost of buying new.” Who Benefits from ASURE's Parts? The applications are surprisingly broad. ASURE OPERATIONS LLC caters to several key groups: Watch Repair Professionals: Shops and technicians can significantly reduce repair times and costs by having a ready supply of common replacement parts on hand. No more waiting weeks for a specific gear to arrive! This translates directly to increased throughput and happier customers. Watchmaking Students: Learning watch repair requires practice, and practice requires parts. ASURE’s affordable pricing makes it easier for students to experiment and hone their skills without breaking the bank. Hobbyist Watch Repairers: The growing community of watch enthusiasts loves taking on repair projects. ASURE’s parts provide access to the components needed to bring old, neglected watches back to life. Vintage Watch Restoration: Finding original parts for vintage watches can be nearly impossible. ASURE's inventory often includes components from older movements, providing restorers with options they wouldn't otherwise have. What Kind of Parts Can You Find? The range of parts available from ASURE OPERATIONS LLC is extensive. Here's just a sampling: Stems & Crowns: A common failure point for many watches. ASURE offers a wide variety of sizes and styles. Watch Hands: From standard hour/minute hands to intricate skeleton hands, they have options for many different movements.

They carry parts for a variety of calibers, including (but not limited to) ETA, Seiko, and Citizen movements. Crystal Gaskets: Essential for maintaining water resistance. Dial Feet: Often lost or damaged during service. Watch Cases & Casebacks: Though availability varies, they sometimes have usable cases and casebacks from donor watches. Bracelet Parts & Links: Individual links and end pieces for various watch bracelets. Quality Control: Not Just "Junk" Anymore While the parts are sourced from used watches, ASURE OPERATIONS LLC emphasizes quality control. Every component is carefully inspected for damage, wear, and functionality before being listed for sale. "We don't just throw random parts into a bin," explains the rep. "Our team meticulously sorts, cleans, and evaluates each item. We're committed to providing parts that are genuinely usable and will help our customers complete successful repairs."
