jmb Posted July 28, 2016 Report Share Posted July 28, 2016 I finally needed to change the battery in my extremely incorrect rep Tudor Heritage Chronograph and found the case-back tight to the point where my sticky-ball couldn't do the job. I try not to use the adjustable three-prong openers on this kinds of case-back as I will often slip and scratch it. Just for grins I grabbed the opener die for a DSSD and, to my astonishment, it fit like a glove! I spun off the back and found, not surprisingly, I did not have to correct battery. A little bit of further trivia is the rep uses a Miyota OS21 movement and an SR927W battery. Although this is a fairly chunky and heavy watch it's one of my preferred beaters when I'm motorcycle riding. So, if you have one of these, and need to remove a tight case-back, grab a DSSD opener and it's smooth sailing. I bought just the single die from Watchbitz years ago right after the DSSD reps started coming out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freddy333 Posted July 28, 2016 Report Share Posted July 28, 2016 Nice bit of luck there with the caseback. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmb Posted July 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2016 Yeah, it really shocked me when it fit. The Tudor rep case-back, I guess being rather flat, looked a lot bigger than the DSSD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
