I guess I had been under the impression that sapphire was harder to scratch but easier to shatter than mineral glass. Wrong?

Hello from South Carolina. We like pictures here…and Hamilton pocket watches. Here’s my grandpa’s 972 that he used to carry on a shoe lace…

I actually saw this Boynton tool on ebay just a few days ago but had no idea what it was for. Thank you - I'll hunt for it again. Well before I shellacked the stones, the watch did tick long enough for them to become dislodged and long enough that the impulse jewel fell out. So I want to get back to that point first.

I got into watch repair a few years ago but it kind of fell by the wayside. However my wife's Omega Seamaster strap could do with having some of the pins and tubes replaced to remove stretch from the bracelet. I have found some for sale here- https://thewatchlink.co.uk/products/pin-and-tube-set-for-omega-seamaster-ladies-6501-827-watch-bracelet However will I be able to fix these myself with the basic watch movement tools I have lying around? The tubes must only be a few mm across and look fiddly to handle. Should I just take this to my local watch person or attempt it myself?
