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,

Hello All.
I'm a fellow watch enthusiast from the North-East of England. I hope everyone is keeping well.
I recently bought myself a cheap watch repair kit, dusted off the old watch storage box and started to giving my watches the attention they required, it's been going quite well so far but do need some guidance with the correct steps of putting the workings and the case back on for my Accurist GMT Grand Complication, hopefully I will do a separate post on this with pics.
Anyway hope everyone is having a decent Friday night.

I've made up my mind to build a watch around the the ETA 2804-2 (28.800/Manual wind/Date complication). It's diameter is identical to the ETA 2824-2 (25.60 mm), but the height of the 2804-2 is just 3.35 mm, that is 1.25 mm less than the 2824-2. I've been looking around but it seems very difficult (impossible?) to find watch cases designed for the ETA 2804-2, but there are plenty of cases to choose from for the 2824-2. So, I have two questions...
1. Where can I find watch cases designed for the ETA 2804-2, and if that isn't possible...?
2. Would a case designed for the 2824-2 work with the 2804-2? My guess is that it would, but that the case back would be unnecessarily thick?

Hi gurus,
I'm working towards a project of making watches from scratch, and as part of that I'm considering buying a milling machine. Given the precision levels needed for both milling and boring, I'm considering a rather costly option, the Wabeco F1200. It has a 0.01mm tolerance for milling and 0.03mm for boring.
My question: would you have an opinion or experience with the suitability of such a mill? Or would you have alternative suggestions for me?

Best regards,
Stian

The outer watch case back looks as though it may have had some markings but they are long since worn away. However, the inside of the watch case back has a few markings which look hand inscribed rather than stamped. They are: addio ABABA N94P8/43 189168 SJN + JHN Do these mean anything to anyone?

Thank you nicklesilver and Nucejoe. I'll give those suggestions a try. I experienced parts flying out of the cheap ($4), stiff set of tweezers I started with. These tweezers encourage a more delicate touch.

Many thanks for this guide - its definitely way ahead of where I am right now but I'm reading it with interest!

Visual comparison of pivot's OD on new and old arbours is near impossible, I guess they are the same or about the same, since the new pivot did fit into the jewel, if the fork doesn't move freely something is wrong there. common causes are; craked jewel, thick or bent pivots, coned pivot fitted into flat jewels.

Question

Greetings All,
I hope this is not a silly question but I'd like to identify what tool(s) I might need to open this type of screw back watch case (see pic. below). This is an inexpensive Victorinox Swiss Army watch and I really don't want to spend $20-$25 at a Jeweler's to have the battery replaced. I know it's definitely not a snap/pop off case.
Thanks,
Klimi99
