SE Watch Repair Tool Kit (16 PC.) - JT6221BL

I have purchased other tools from "SE" and knew I should not believe the "Highest Quality 16 Piece Watch Kit on The Market", but figured they would be good enough to replace a couple links on a Moto360. It couldn't finish the 1st job before breaking.All though the link remover/pin press appears to be the same as the $2.53 "SE Watch Link Remover with 5 Pins" from the same vendor, it is not. The tip is not replaceable. If it breaks, as mine did, its done. For the money, the block/hammer/pin punch set for $5.95 and the Linker Remover for $2.35 is a better deal. None of the extras you get in this kit are worth the extra $1.The pin press was the tool I needed most for the task and it immediately fell apart. The handle is 4 separate parts and drives the metal pin pusher tip. There are 2 halves to the handle that are supposed to be held in place around the metal pin by a cap on one end and a ring on the other end. The ring and cap immediately fell off. After fiddling with it, I used tape to hold the 2 halves together and more tape for the cap and ring. The handle's threads are so limited that there is about 1/8" between when the pin tip is flush with the edge of the holder and the handle falls off the threads. The press body is too narrow to fit the 23mm band on the Moto360 and it had to be wedged in. Fortunately the plastic is fairly flexible, but it makes alignment very difficult. While pushing the 3rd pin, the tip of the pusher broke, and I had to finish the process using the hammer and pin punches.The most useful parts in the kit are the hammer and block. I was able to use them to drive the link pins out and back in after the pin-pusher broke. The hammer is a good weight for delicate items. The "soft" side is the same plastic used on the pin press and block. The kit includes 3 pin punches, all the same size and none of them are straight. Unfortunately they were too large for the pins on the Moto 360 (A caliper measured them as 0.99, 1.00 and 1.01 mm) I was able to turn one of them down with emery cloth and a drill and use it on the Moto360 link pins.The 3 flat blade screwdrivers are all the same size. They are decent quality, typical of inexpensive "jewelers" screw driver sets and will be added to my collection of small screwdrivers. But the Philips head screwdrivers are very cheap and coarse and headed for the junk box. The smaller tip appears to be a #0, the larger a #1 but with both have reduced blade widths. They will not fit the small 00 & 000 Philips heads found on watches and electronics; and if used on them, will strip out the screw heads.The needle nose pliers and tweezers are pretty poor quality. Neither one meets at the tip. The needle nose jaws remain ~0.2mm apart no matter how much pressure is applied. And the "tweezers" are basically flat metal strips and their tips do not align, the mis-match is ~0.5 mm. Like the Philips screwdrivers, they are headed for the scrape box.

Overall a really nice kit. Now don't expect high end tools for the price but they were a lot better quality than I anticipated. The main reason I bought this was for the hammer which is very solid and durable. I also needed a couple things like the tweezers and the extra pin remover tools were nice. I don't see a lot of the tools lasting very long but with some care they might last for a good period of time. I've used the hammer and pin removers for stubborn pins that my other link remover couldn't push through. They worked very well and even with heavy pounding the pins tool didn't break or bend at all. I have a different link remover tool but the one that comes with this kit is ok as well. I tried it and it worked. Always be careful removing pins; if you feel to much resistance and see the pin remover bending that is a sign to STOP. The screwdrivers are a little too big for most watch screws but it never hurts to have a few extra screwdrivers for other uses. For the case remover its not a bad tool but way to small for oversized watches. Smallest watch I have is 46mm and it was too small so keep that in mind if you need a case opener.The pliers are also really nice to have as well. Again don't expect super high quality from this kit but for the price it is very well worth it to have some extra tools.

I needed to resize a watch band, and this toolkit was perfect. Some people complained about the plastic link remover snapping, so I tried it. It didn't line up the pin with the pin in the link very well, so I gave up on it. I have heard that that kind of press looks easy, but is very fiddly.I then put the watch band in the blue holding block, placed one of the pin punches on the pin and gave it a few light taps with the hammer. The pin popped loose with no effort. This is how it is supposed to be. Make sure you know which direction you need to knock the pin out, and push it back in in the opposite direction.While this kit is not the highest quality contents it is good enough for the price and the purpose.As another reviewer said you should not be using any significant effort to use these tools. If effort is being required you are probably doing it wrong. The pins need to be lined up properly, and if driving a pin into the chain block you need to make sure there is a void underneath.

I paid $9.45Everything works and everything is on the cheap side, which is what I expected. It is good to work on a few watches but not for professional watch repairing.The screwdrivers did not fit into most watch screws I tried them on.The watch pin removers bend easily, like all generic watch pin removers you will find, but they will work and can take a good amount of pressure before bending. The bands I used them on were solid stainless steel 22mm.The tweesers work but are cheap metal, not high grade stainless by any means but fine if you only need to work on a few watches.The spring bar remover tool had one of its teeth damaged from the first spring bar I removed with it. It still works but I can tell it wont last for more than maybe 10 spring bars.. fine if you only need to work on a few watches.The case remover should not be used for high end luxary watches, as if you slip you can mar the case back which is not good. A 3-prong remover would be ideal.The case knife is decent but not as good as an old high carbon pocket knife.The watch band holder works, as does the plastic link remover with the handle.The hammer and pliers will hold up for a long time.So in conclusion, great price to work on a few watches, resizing bands on a high end watch, or replacing a battery on a cheaper sports watch you wouldn't mind scratching the back of. But if you plan on doing 50 you already know you need a better kit.Hope that helps!

Las disfruto bastante, me entretiene mucho usarlas con mis relojes para cambiar correas ajustar brazaletes metálicos de relojes nuevos,voy me he ahorrado dinero.

el kit no es de la mejor calidad, sin embargo es la mejor opción por el precio, hay que tener cuidado al manipular las herramientas.

La calidad es muy baja se doblan la herramienta por el tipo de acero que está construido

Muy buen kit, la calidad no es lo mejor pero muy completo está en relación al precio, excelente como primer kit de mantenimiento a relojes.

Para un principiante como yo, es ideal.
