I've bought over three thousand items over the years, with only a couple of real problems. My criteria are a reasonable number of feedback as a seller and and a near 100% positive, plus common sense & avoiding those with generic photos rather than the actual items. -
It does protect the hole from deformation! If you punch it out in a staking set the stake will (most likely) follow through and damage the hole. Not so the Platax and similar tools. However, a Platax tool may still damage the hole depending on how hard the rivet is. I wouldn't use the Platax on a really expensive watch, but for all normal mass-produced movements - which make up 100 % of the movements I'm working on - I have no qualms.

yes there is always a chance. or have enough friends and send the image and get the answer back I have below. then if you are in the Seattle area the person who gave me that occasionally gives lectures on these watches yes I remember the watch with the rubber clutch just didn't remember what it look like. This is a Pierce 130. Good luck with it. It has an internal rubber clutch that must be replaced when it is serviced. then now that we know what it is we can search for it. a little information is found at the link below https://mb.nawcc.org/threads/pierce-130-and-134.178909/

I always remove capstones for visual check, how else can one be sure. In case of rub- in jewels, relevent pivot is roughly indicative of the capstone's condition.

@Neverenoughwatches Rich I am so saddened to hear this bad news. Mum comes first and I hope to see you back here sometime. I am around if you ever need someone to talk to, I’ll DM my number mate. Tom
