The equipment need
A young independent watchmaker had acquired several CNC machining centers and a second-hand precision tower from popres and wanted to replenish its liquidity through a leasing operation.
The case required a rigorous valuation of recently paid and partially acquired machinery on the second-hand market.
- Office CNC machining centers
- Used precision tower
The support described in the project
We arranged a sale-leaseback on the entire workshop fleet, for a period of 48 months with a nominal purchasing option at the end of the contract, after valuing the equipment.
The reported operational outcome
The factory recovered its investment while retaining the use of its machines to support its development.
