Hello, Watch Repairer Newbie Here

No pin in the link above the spring. I presume the half if the dies are designed to push on the upper ram, if not it hasn't been threaded to take the dies.

Yes Geo, lol. The upper part hasn't been threaded to take the dies. Ah well- easy mistake to make I suppose they must be churing them out by the millions over there.

Hi Kees,

 

Welcome from me too. Hope you are enjoying our place.

 

As far as the press, I would rather get a better one that those. I've had already enough mishaps with cheap presses. It eventually saves money to have the right one. Just MHO.

 

Cheers,

 

Bob
