Need a watch case holder

[gplracer]

I am ordering some tools because I have none. I have a case opener on the way. I would like to get a movement holder. Some of the movement holders are really cheap. Does it matter? What would be a good one that is not much money? Thanks!!!

Anything from Bergeon should be fine (ofrei, julesborel, cousinsuk, etc). I would steer clear of the cheap off-branded tools.

I see no need to spend a lot of money on one.

Also, I'm very happy w/ my economy tool kit that I bought 3-4 years ago:

You can shop around and find it for less- I've seen them for $50.

Also, I bought a nice set of screwdrivers from Offshore recently- $15 incl shipping to USA. Good quality blades.

Then you can add specialty tools as you need them.

Thanks guys I really appreciate it.

i'm not going to create a new topic for that but does anyone know what tool to use to take out a bracelet from a 16610 (without lugholes). I have a cheap sub that i'd like to put on a nato and i might do the same thing with the WM9 V3 i'm going to order soon.

Is this tool the one (the first one bergeon 3153) or one of the followings: http://www.cousinsuk.com/catalog/6/1107/1305.aspx ?

That is a real simple tool. It is basically a flat screwdriver with a notch in the middle. Harbor Freight has them for almost nothing. You could make one or just use a screw driver as well.

These are also available at www.watchbitz.com.au. along with many other quality and specialist tools.
