Guides
How to measure, match and choose watch repair tools and parts: case openers, movement holders, case presses, capacitors and crowns.
A snapped stem in a movement with no caliber name is still a solvable order: measure the thread, pick an extender or crown, then send us the numbers. Tables come from our catalog listings.
We do not sell the strap itself — we sell the spring bars and tools. Sizes, thickness options, quick release vs double flange, and how to measure a lug width before ordering.
Removal tube tools bite — they do not torque. This guide separates the three case tube jobs (remove, tighten, replace) and matches each to the right tool, with tip sizes from our listings.
How to choose a watch case press and the right die: screw versus lever mechanism, how to measure the case back, and the presses and dies we list.
Crowns, winding stems, crown tubes and the O-ring seals behind them: what each part is, how to measure it, and the sizes listed in our catalogue.
Which movement holder fits your calibre? Holders listed for ETA 7750, 2892-A2, 2892-5100 and 2894-2, the 7 in 1 and 3 in 1 sets, bench clamps and the cushion sizes underneath.
Which watch case opener do you need? How to tell snap-on, notched and branded case backs apart, what to measure, and the Jaxa sizes, friction balls, knives and BRL/PAN dies we list.
Which Citizen Eco-Drive capacitor do you need? Movement codes and battery sizes for 295-38, 295-55, 295-5100 and 295-5600, with what each listing states.
