jackagi Posted March 26, 2012 Report Share Posted March 26, 2012 Hey, I need help of any IWC pros. As I think that my rotor is loose I need to open the caseback to check it.

twtw1208 Posted April 11, 2012 Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 try to wear a kitchen plastic gloves and place the back case at the centre on your plam, give a little pressure and rotate your watch slowly and gentlely, it sounds stupid but really works Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FxrAndy Posted April 11, 2012 Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 Or a big ball of masking tape Sticky balls are good too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koko Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 Take a hot glue gun put the hot glue on a round block of wood (the one my children play with are perfect) press the block on the casde back let it dry and you can open the watch withaut scratches. The wooden block ist easy to remove after closing the watch. Regards Markus Former known as zett in a german forum (I miss you guys).

higginsd Posted October 2, 2013 Report Share Posted October 2, 2013 Really? Only with the palm? I cant believe. And for a BigPilot? Also use palm, gloves or sticky ball? Or would it be better to buy a case opener tool and use the round bits? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
