Frequently asked questions
How do I open a screw-down watch case back?
Use a case back wrench whose pins fit the notches in the case back. For snap-on backs, use a case knife. The 16-piece watch repair kit includes both.
Can I open my watch myself?
Yes, for battery or strap work. For movement service, non-magnetic tweezers, a proper case holder and a clean workspace matter, or hand it to a watchmaker.
Do you dispatch the same day?
We aim to. Orders placed before 2pm UK time, Monday to Friday, are targeted for same-day dispatch; later orders are dispatched from the next working day. It is a target, not a guarantee. Most UK orders arrive 2-3 working days after dispatch.
