Professional 13 Piece Watch Press Set - Watch Back Press - Watch Back Case Closer Include 12 Dies with Metal Inserts (Blue)

Easy to use

I have so far used this only once. It took me a few tries to get the right discs needed to get the case back on but was happy that it did end up snapping back on. My main complaint is that it came with no instructions.

Usually I have to take my big watch to a jewelry store to get them to put the back on, and it cost me $5.00 just to press it on. So, I figured I'd buy a presser to save money. Once I figured out the size needed for top and bottom, it worked and was so easy. Plus, I watched a youtube video. I'm really glad I purchased this item!

it gets the job done

I bought a different watch clamp off Amazon years ago, and it broke the crystals of several watches before I realized it was junk and replaced it with this one. This clamp is better in three key ways.First, the clamp comes with brackets/mounts that actually fit my "broadface" oversized watches. The prior clamp only came with smaller sizes that would work with ladies watches or the smaller, older-style 1950s-size Timex or Seiko watches. They were too small, so the pressure came down on the glass/crystal portion too hard and broke the crystal. Happened to about five watches before I just stopped using it.Second, a thick watch actually fits between the clamp even with adaptor pieces on both sides. There is at least an inch clearance with bracket/mounts on both sides. My previous clamp had about a quarter of an inch clearance with brackets on both sides, and thus could not fit some of my thicker watches. So I had to clamp those watches with a plastic piece on only one side, and the empty center-prong on the other. I put the crystal on the plastic-bracket side, but the other "pointy" side would sometimes dent the metal back of the watch case when clamped. This one has enough space so a thick watch fits between the clamp brackets just fine.Third, the adaptor pieces screw into place instead of just fit loosely on the center spindle piece like an LP-record on a turntable. On the prior clamp, the spindle was just an unthreaded spindle, much like on a turntable. It wouldn't hold the bracket in place, making it difficult to fit the watch in without everything falling apart, especially the top bracket. With the screw-spindle/centerpiece, the brackets fit fine, watch goes in, presto!I changed the battery and clamped several watches without a problem. Easy-Peasy.

Made quick work of a timex watch.Snapped on with one push.very satisfied

It took me a bit to figure it out, but finally got it to close the back on 2 watches. I watched the Youtube video as suggested but the information was slightly off regarding the top plastic parts (the dies). Video said to use a flat die for the top. There are only 2 plastic pieces that are flat in the watch press I received (as shown in the amazon description). These did not work for my rather large men's watches. But using one of the other dies worked fine. I feel like a pro now.

Bought it to close two watches I replaced batteries in, both new Calvin Kleins. Wasn’t strong enough to snap the backs on. Not a terrible design, just more suited for lighter duty jobs. The caps screwed on and off easily. Just didn’t work for me.

I had to replace 3 watch batteries. 2 of the backs snaped on easily, the 3rd would not snap on. With this tool I had it on in 10 seconds after figuring out how to use it which was not difficult. Saved so much $$ doing this myself, plus traveling to and from the jewelry store. Worthwhile investment!

Didn’t get any of the nylon dyes to actually work on the watch.

Not a good product!! It broke the first time I used it!!!
