Eventronic 16Pcs Watch Press Tool Set Back Case Closer for Closing Watch Cover Watch Battery Replacement Tool Kit

For a professional tool this would leave a lot to be desired, however for someone just looking to fix a few watches over its lifespan this does its job well, more than worth the cost. As you can see there are many sized ends to get the perfect fit, you will need to use a micro-fiber or something else for padding though to prevent damage Hinge mechanism held up fine for my repair but you can tell it is not designed for daily use. Used this to replace a scratched up crystal in a G-Shock. This plus glass was still $70 cheaper than a professional repair and over $100 cheaper than replacing the watch with an equal model.

The media could not be loaded. I needed this watch press because I wasn't able to to close the back of my skagen watch by hand after replacing the battery. There are other watches for which I was able to snap on the back with my hands, but Skagen's watch was giving me hard time. The press comes with 12 dyes with different diameters (18mm - 50mm). Depending upon the size of the watch you would select two dyes and screw them on the base and on the top arm of the press. The dyes are made of plastic but the press itself seems to be made of cast iron, so it is stable but not much. You would still have to be careful to not tip-over the press while applying pressure. The press also comes with an manual but it contains the details for a watch repair kit (which is not part of this item) as well as the watch press. The contents of the manual were not very helpful. The arm of the press is spring loaded it keeps the press in the open position (so that the arm of the press doesn't fall over the watch accidentally when you are setting up the watch in the press.) The spring is nice and does not require too much pressure to close it. I was able to operate the press with one hand only. There are two microfiber cloths also with the press which you can keep on the op and bottom of watch to avoid any scratches. I had purchased the watch repair kit separately ( Watch Repair Tool Kit, Danibos Watch Repair Tool Set Case Opener Watch Link Remover Spring Bar Tool Set. (24pcs) ) and the combined cost of the kit and this press is already cheaper than what a shop would have charged me to change the batteries for the watches I have used them with. Keep in mind that you would need other tools to open the back since this press only closes the back. HOW TO USE THE WATCH PRESS Selecting the dyes The watch press has two screws studs on which dyes are screwed (one on bottom and one on top.) The watch is kept on the bottom dye and the top arm comes over and presses on top of the watch. I kept the front side of the watch on the bottom dye. The bottom dye I choose was big enough that the frame of the watch was resting on the dye (not the glass part.) I also chose the top dye (which presses against the back of the watch) of a size which was little smaller than the back cover, so that when the top dye comes down it presses against the cover and not the watch. Placing the watch The press comes with two microfiber cloths to prevent any scratches. I placed one microfiber cloth on bottom dye, placed the watch on it (with its front/face resting on the bottom dye), and then placed the second microfiber cloth on top of the watch. Pressing the back cover Now this was the part I was nervous about the most. The first time I pressed the back cover, the cover did not snap in. I needed to apply more pressure. When I tried the second time the cover snapped in with a hard snapping sound. I guess with more experience you could get more comfortable with applying the pressure on the watch. SOME IMPORTANT THINGS TO KEEP IN MIND 1. While choosing the dyes you have to make sure that the bottom dye (on which the face of the watch will rest) is big enough so that the frame of the watch is resting on it. If you choose a dye that is not big enough and only the glass part of the watch is resting on the dye, then it's very likely that when you press the top arm over the watch, the glass on the face will crack. 2. Top dye should be little smaller than the back cover you are trying to snap back in. Otherwise it will simply press against the frame of the watch and not the cover. 3. Before you try to snap back in the watch cover, make sure that the watch cover doesn't need to be aligned. In the inside of my watch's cover there was a small notch/dip that had to be aligned over the top of the crown stem. Just look inside the cover and make sure there are no unusual indentations on the inside of back watch cover and make sure it is aligned before you try to snap it back in. OVERALL IMPRESSIONS A watch press like this did make me nervous and there is potential of damaging your watch if things are not done correctly. It has nothing to do with the build quality of this press but it was the first time I was applying this kind of pressure to the watch. My watch was relatively inexpensive so I was okay with taking the risk. If you have an expensive watch or are working at someone else's watch then you might wanna consider getting it done in a shop. But other than this I loved this press and it snapped the back in perfectly. This is a small and lightweight press that I can operate with my one hand. I have already recouped the money hat I spent on this press. Read more

Excellent product, easy to use! Read more

Buyer beware broke immediately on first use. It’s made of cheap cast metal. It’s a joke. I worried I’d crack a crystal or something. Nope. A little pressure and the base snapped. Read more
