Hi everyone, I have been failing to open this Wittnauer watch using prying tools. Does it need special tools or techniques to open it? Thank you, -

Hey Guys, Back again with a new piece of equipment. I found this whilst researching what to buy for refurbishing bands and cases. It's called the JoolTool, and was invented by a lady named Anie, a jeweler with over three decades in the trade. One of the main issues when polishing bands and cases with a standard wheel buff is the skills you need to develop to maintain the lines of original factory finish. One wrong move on your typical round wheel buff, and you can devalue a piece considerably ... well not any more!! This is one smart lady, and she has designed a simple and affor -
If I am not mistaken, brass tweezers are softer, hence better for handling more delicate parts to avoid scratches or marks, is that accurate? If that's the case, why not just use brass tweezers all the time? What are your understanding about the usage of brass versus stainless steel tweezers? Thanks
