Hello everyone, I'm not sure I translate what you write correctly. I made a video which is not famous because I don't really have what it takes. From there my message took a little time to be validated by a Moderator and I haven't come back here since. So, I do exactly the same way as on the video that was posted with just in addition my little "anti-loss" plexiglass box that I use as soon as I fear that a part could jump in a distant galaxy ! 🙂 Contrary to the photos which were only there to show the "principle", obviously I temporarily fix the movement holder to the table with rodico so that it does not move otherwise nothing can be done of course ! All this works perfectly for me in complete safety and without risk of loss. Exactly as on the video, I perform this operation when the movement is completely disassembled. If I understand correctly, I believe that when you touch a movement there will always be a risk of damaging it, even for an excellent watchmaker, right ? The risk becomes smaller and smaller the better you get, but it will always exist, in my opinion. When I was a complete beginner and wanted to learn, I broke a few, lost parts, and I knew the risk was great. But that's also how I learned from my mistakes and it hasn't happened to me for a while now, even if the risk is still there ! -
That sort of tool was around way back when those horrid battery movements started to take off they were free The usefulness would be to anyone starting out repairing those movements replacing batteries not being able to keep a vast stock because it will be expensive, not being able or not aware of tec sheets or helping with the ID of a battery for a odd movement providing the old battery is still available, some batteries have no I D on them. -

👍bob on Nucejoe. The watch you are working on somebody may have used or you may wish to use Maxcell, Energizer, Rayovac, JCB, Duracell, Varta, Citizen, Seiko, Timex, AG, IEC, Panasonic, Eveready, Toshiba, Sony etc, etc. Although some use the same codes. Charts are available and a pair of insulated calipers to double check the size, but a beginner might want something simple and convenient , whats more convenient than this ? -
