Rolex case back opener

[thealphabeta]

Hi All

What are the alternatives to the standard roles case back tools? I'm looking in the UK for something but on eBay it's £35 for the usual case back set but as I'm only likely to use it a handful of times I'd like to see alternatives if there are any.

Cheers

Dave,

Our Rolex specific set is $43.50 for RWG members.

If you don't want to spend that money, the multi point tool, when teamed with a bench mounted case clamp will do an excellent job on Rolex case backs, as well as many other styles/brands.

You do need a case clamp as this one is a two handed operation.

Don't forget that RWG members get much better pricing once signed up at

if they sell the LG style, its worth the price despite costing almost $100. you can firmly and tightly close down case backs with out burring the caseback machining from the hand held ones.

Duct tape over a sock worked great for me
