Got a set of watch tools in the mail, thanks to my lovely wife. \u00a0A nice assortment of tools including:<\/p>\n

A pin remover, which is great for resizing most metal bracelets. \u00a0It is easy to use and works well.<\/p>\n

A hammer with nylon tip. \u00a0Used to put pins back into place<\/p>\n

Jeweler’s screwdrivers. Handy for many reasons.<\/p>\n

A springbar tool. \u00a0 Makes removing bracelets and bands a breeze.<\/p>\n

A caseback opener. \u00a0Now, I don’t need to stop at a jeweler or Wallyworld to change a battery. \u00a0It is used for screw on casebacks.<\/p>\n

A case knife. \u00a0Opens cases that snap on.<\/p>\n

A nylon band holder. \u00a0For knocking out pins.<\/p>\n

So, all in all, the basic tools for resizing bracelets and changing out batteries and bands. \u00a0If you have a small watch collection, especially if it is quartz, the tools will pay for themselves in no time at all. \u00a0If you like to swap out bands a lot, it is really necessary.<\/p>\n

Also, in more important news, I am getting a watch in the mail today. \u00a0Yes another one. \u00a0I what has become a tradition, I picked out several watches and let Tiffany pick one out in secret so what I am getting is a mystery. \u00a0 I shall see what it is this evening. \u00a0 All I know is that is probably an Orient and an Automatic.<\/p>\n\"Facebook\"<\/a>\"twitter\"<\/a>\"mail\"<\/a>by <\/span>\"feather\"<\/a>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
