If you see Kay Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 yes I have, but you gotta watch out for sharp lug corners. I popped by ball that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You prob go thru a lot of tape. It's so cold there, it probably just cracks and breaks anyway. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cougar1 Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 (edited) Sticky balls are one of the best caseback openers, for some reason they open 99% of casebacks without bother, only the odd time they require a bit more than usual torque. No need for those ones that slip and put marks all over the place, they are a pita. I think mine came free from from a dealer with a watch purchase a few years ago. Great tool!

Watchmeister Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 I'm too cheap to buy a sticky ball so I use a wad of duct tape. +1. I always scratch the case or caseback with those fancy Bergeon adjustable caseback openers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thealphabeta Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 I'm amazed how good these are. I just bought one and they are so useful. +1 to scratching with the metal case back opener.

panermaniac Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 I just got one and it's the next best thing to slice bread. I think it's better. I once tried to open a PAM187 case with sliced bread, it didn't work well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
