Jewel removal an re-fitting

[Mlgboy]

Would appreciate some advice on transferring jewels to a new barrel bridge as the part is supplied new without them. Should they be re-used or new ones fitted? and if so what tools would work well for this without breaking the bank. This work is for an ETA2836-2.

Please forgive this newbie question as this level of work is new to me as I build by skills.

You really need a jeweling tool. Seitz sets can be had for 150 or less if you're patient. Worth every penny, I use my jeweling tools 3x more than my staking tool.

Finding the right jewel is the hard part. Make sure you don't crack the jewel on removal.
