Thor Posted March 20, 2006 Report Posted March 20, 2006 Have you heared about the duck-tape method? If not click here It really works Or you can just do it ih the common way with an case opener for Rolex as this one for example from Bergeon FB-225, there are also cheaper ones to get: Click here
sailadams Posted March 20, 2006 Report Posted March 20, 2006 If you're going to do it a lot, get the LG Openall case opener (Otto Frei is a good source). It comes with six rings to open all sizes and types of Rolex case backs. It also works with the regular LG case wrench for non-Rolex type backs. Order the optional non-scratch case-holder for <$10; it's much nicer than the metal holder that comes with the unit.
t Posted March 21, 2006 Report Posted March 21, 2006 never use a standard watch case opener... they scratches your watch ONLY the Bergeon watch case opener make it good... all watchmaker worldwide used this opener.
yt74 Posted March 22, 2006 Report Posted March 22, 2006 Just be careful with the duct tape method because it will trash your hologram sticker!
