I had four costume jewelry watches with dead batteries. When I counted up the money it would take for a shop to replace the batteries, I purchased this kit instead. Four watches with fresh batteries later, I now have a suite of watch repair tools to pass on down to the kids when it's their turn. The tools are well made, so they should last, and though the directions could use a *bit* more illustration, I feel I can take on most watch challenges in the future. If you have a Rolex, you should probably take it to a jeweler. But, for costume jewelry, I doubt this kit can be beat.
Please note that I am not a professional watch repairer. I use this for sizing my watches (or the rest of my families watches) or to replace the batteries when they die out. I have several watches and so does my wife and son and I'm the lucky one who gets to work on all the watches in the house 😒. I've bought two other cheap watch repair kits for $5 a piece. Well you get what you pay for with those as the pin pusher is made of really cheap plastic that breaks easily. Not with the metal one included in this bad boy. It also comes with 3 manual pin pushers. I won't list everything as you can see what it comes with based on the images I have provided, but I will let you know what I liked and didn't like about this set.
Likes:
I really liked the fact that it came with a crazy amount of replacement springs for watch bands of all sizes. The metal pin pusher is what really sold me on this kit though and it works great because you can also adjust the height of the base that holds the braclet part of the watch while you work on the pins. The two pry tools are awesome due to the sizes available. The smaller one felt like I was able to use more force without it being uncontrollable. The watch brace was something that I didn't have in my previous cheaper kits and I really enjoyed being able to utilize this new arsenal. This gives me the ability to grip the watch better without worrying about me scratching the lens. The spring tool bars made my life so much easier as I used to have to use the prying tool to try and get these back into place which is not an easy task. It also comes with replacement tips for the spring tool bar which is a great bonus in case you damage it.
Dislikes:
I did not like the way the opening tool used to open the back of watch works. The part that is screwed in for water proof watches has notches (grooves) that you would use this tool to unscrew it. It didn't offer much surface area so it put a lot of strain on my fingers and it came loose frequently because of the way it tightens. I actually ended up putting the one from my cheaper kits in this set for future use. It also didn't come with needle nose pliers and again I used the one provided from my previous set and put it in this kit as well. Other than that I am extremely satisfied with this kit and would recommend it to anyone who needs to replace their own batteries or size their bands. Thanks for reading and I hope this helps.
I needed to change a watch battery and adjust a strap. I brought the watches to a jeweler and they quoted $40 for the services. I purchased this product and in 10 minutes had both tasks accomplished. Total cost under $15 with the new battery. The tools are not the highest quality but they do the job. I probably would. It use this for a TAG watch but it works well. Bottom line, it pays for itself in one use.
I recently purchased a band for my Fitbit Charge 3 that used a tool to adjust the size of the band. The tool that came with the band was not lined up correctly and I was not able to use it. I ordered this kit and was able to adjust my band in about 2 minutes which was awesome after my husband and I attempted the other tool for about 15 min before we gave up. I now also have the tools to change my watch batteries rather than having to take them to a jewelry store to have the backs removed. I believe these tools would come in handy for other small screws and times as well. Very happy with this purchase.
I bought this as a tool kit to try doing some of my own battery swaps for the first time. I had one pin that was slightly bent, but otherwise this kit was great. Let me do 2 battery replacements and a link removal on 3 of my watches. Also already did 3 battery replacements for my brother's watches as well. Paid for itself already in just that set of work.

One cleaning cloth.
I received this set today, and easily removed links from two watches. I also was able to remove the backs from four watches needing batteries. The quality of the tools is better than expected. The booklet isn’t the greatest, but it’s enough to get you started, and any additional information that’s needed can be found on YouTube. Definitely worth purchasing!
This item had probably the best mix of reviews from many that I looked at. It turned out to be pretty good. I have only used few of the tools in this kit, but it made my life much easier. I have shortened metal bands and replaced batteries on three watches so far, and it took me only few minutes each. I'm very happy with this kit, especially considering it's low price.
The toolkit helped out plenty when I replaced watch batteries on 3 watches. My challenge is that by being as old as I am my eyesight and hand stability isn't what it once was. When I took out a screw (which is the size of the head of a pin) for one battery replacement it took awhile to get it back in. I used a magnifying glass mounted on a stand with a led light to help see what I was doing. For someone like me, I need a head mounted loupe set that has a flashlight on it to make the job easier. I haven't gotten to reducing wristband sizes yet. But, I have 3 watches to do that with. So far the tool set has been fun to play with. I just need to understand what I'm doing and improve my skill level. The batteries are very cheap from Amazon and it cost me around $3 for the 3 watches and it tool about 5 minutes total. Pretty easy and it makes me wonder why I paid $13 for a battery replacement recently.
Since I've owned this watch repair kit, I have
- changed 4 batteries
- sized two bracelets
- repeatedly swapped multiple watch bands
I honestly can't think of anything that could be missing from this kit, it has everything I need for basic watch repair.
Wow! It’s a really good stuff. I got my watch with some water inside. With those tools and instructions, I finally open my watch and clean it.
