🔧 What it does & how to use
This press fits crystals and case backs onto watch cases by applying steady, controlled pressure through a screw-down top handle, rather than a sudden hammer or hand-press action. Because you wind the pressure on gradually, you can stop the moment the crystal or back seats — reducing the risk of overtightening and cracking the glass or distorting the case, which makes it a good choice for hobbyists as well as more experienced repairers.
-
Choose the die: pick the plastic die from the set of 8 that matches the diameter of the crystal or case back you're fitting.
-
Position the case: place the watch case centrally on the press base.
-
Fit the die: set the matching die on top of the crystal or case back.
-
Apply pressure: turn the top handle slowly, increasing pressure a little at a time.
-
Check the seat: stop as soon as the crystal or back is fully and evenly seated.
-
Release and remove: unwind the handle and lift the watch clear.
⚠️ Please check that you select a die matching the crystal or case back diameter before applying pressure, as the dies are double-sided with different sizes on each face.
