Horotec or Bergeon screwdrivers
Narcissus replied to matabog's topic in Watch Repair Tools & Equipment
Screwdriver preference is quite a personal thing round here so good luck getting a consensus I’ve had Bergeon and wasn’t that happy with them so I got a set of VOH. Now they are amazing. Can’t speak for Horotec but I’d skip Bergeon for screwdrivers. Good luck -
Removing Sheared Off Screws grrrrr
Narcissus replied to jnash's question in Watch Repairs Help & Advice
Agree with all above. The Bergeon extractor has been hit/miss for me as well. Good luck! -

Watchmakers Lathe Or Mini Lathe
Narcissus replied to jdrichard's topic in Watch Repair Tools & Equipment
Same as mentioned. Gears, stems, precision you'll want a watchmakers lathe. Case work, movement rings, etc you'll get more mileage out of a minilathe. Or better yet, as my watchsmith mentor suggested to me, a vertical mill -

Yeah bud, The crystal retainer is still on there. You'll need a good four bladed bezel remover or something very strong. It looks like one piece when installed but it does come off. Good luck.

Did you take the crystal retainer off first? There shouldn't be a "groove" that has any gasket in it.

Very cool!
