🔧 What it does & how to use
This bench press is designed for watch repairers and hobbyists who need to reseat quartz case backs after a battery swap or service, or to fit a flat mineral crystal into a case. The set of 12 nylon dies covers a wide range of sizes, so you can match the die to the job rather than relying on one fixed head.
-
Choose the die: select a tapered die (21mm–40mm) for stepped case backs, or a flat die (24mm–37mm) for flat case backs or flat mineral crystals.
-
Fit the die: snap the chosen die onto the press head — no tools needed to swap dies.
-
Position the watch: centre the case back or crystal squarely under the press.
-
Apply pressure: lower the press steadily until the case back or crystal seats fully and evenly.
-
Check the fit: confirm the case back is properly closed or the crystal sits flush before releasing.
⚠️ Please check your case back or crystal diameter against the tapered (21mm–40mm) and flat (24mm–37mm) die ranges before use, as the press is only supplied with dies in these sizes.
