Recommended Posts

Dear experts,

i need a caseback opener for my rollies.

when i buy a set bergeon 5537 i get a set of 6 dye's.

I only have a Noob Mariner an Explorer II and a MBW 1665 is it right that i only need the 29,5mm dye ???

Carpe Diem,

Cats

Hey Cats,

I got myself a cheap set and bought a bergeon 29,5 only.

This way I have the arm and I can fit it to the die.

It's important to get a high quality die because the cheap ones will scratch you cases for sure :(

Cheers

im PRETTY sure thats what i used on ALL my oyster style rep casebacks.

careful of stripping the teeth tho, i find on the reps its easy to come out of mesh with the caseback when applying pressure and trying to turn.

I found holding the wrench tool closer to the middle allowed for greater control but at the expensive of some torque.

Thanks guys.

@ Stephane if i understood you correct, you bought the cheap one for the let's say handle bars and the original dye to open the case.

Exactly !

The rep/low quality dies will strip on the teeth of the rep case backs. Don't even try them pls :)

Thanks all for the good advise.

It maybe the case that the watch caseback is of a poor quality but i do know that there is a difference between the cheap China copied Bergeon tools and the genuine Bergeon tool.

I will not distroy my MBW with lots of modds by using a 50 dollar cheaper tool.

@ Stephane Offei is selling the original Bergeon 5537 - M and the 29,5 mm dye.

The only thing i don't like is the EMS shipping for 30 bucks but i think they are also willing to ship it with reg airmail.
