H&S Alliance Watch Repair Tool Kit - Watch Link Removal Kit - Watch Tools Set for Sizing w Pin & Back Removal Opening Tool - Strap Band Pins Adjustment Screwdriver - Box Case

I was absolutely blown away when I opened the tool kit, I just did not expect such a quality piece of kit for the amount paid. The quality is excellent and the kit contains all the items required if you wanted to set yourself up as a watch repairer. I've already used to repair one watch and replace the battery in another. Excellent value.

I have not had this set for very long so I really need more time to make a complete review. That said, this is a very nicely presented set of tools at an amazing low price. There is a helpful, although somewhat limited, guide to get you started. I would suggest a good look at YouTube for the newcomer to learn more about the mysteries of watch repair before attempting anything too complicated. The box is very nicely put together looking professional and there is a plethora of new and unusual tools. I have so far opened up one watch to changed the battery. I have also replaced a watch strap using push pins. I am no expert, but so far this set has proved to be very useful.

The main issue I had with the kit, is that I ordered it believing it was from the UK and not from China like most of the other kits of the same price, and it was one of my main criteria for purchasing this one instead of any other. Upon opening it, the plastic bag had a "Made in China" label. A couple of tools have the company's logo on them. I' m not sure what to make of it, but I would like potential buyers to know that perhaps this is not a UK made product. You get a nice looking box though. Now that this is out of the way, I will review the kit itself. After using it for a few weeks I am pretty satisfied with the kit (always keeping in mind the value for money factor, given that it is very affordable and you can't expect high quality). I have used every tool, even those that other reviewers say that broke way too easily, managing to take apart a couple of automatic watches down to the last bit. Nothing broke. Some tools feel a bit flimsy indeed though. Also, the screwdrivers needed sharpening right out of the box and the screwdriver blades can get loose in their slots (you can easily sharpen them with a sharpening stone and fix the blades in the slots with a small flat screwdriver, so for me it isn't such a big deal, I think you have to sharpen and tighten even the more expensive screwdrivers at some point). That said, you need to keep your moves very delicate. If you try to use the tools with the force that you would with your other tools then of course they will break, but then perhaps it would not a good idea for you to tamper with watches. Overall, I don't regret buying this kit, but I would take the country of manufacture into consideration, as well as the case (the box looks nicer than the tool bag that most kits come in, but is bulkier and harder to store, and possibly increased the delivery price substantially for me) Finally some advice for fellow beginner enthusiasts. In comparison with the other kits I considered buying before deciding on this one, this is a fuller set, including a hand removing tool and a magnifier loupe which you will find very useful (unless you only want to change bracelets and batteries, in which case you would be better off with a much simpler kit anyway). The tools included here suffice in kind and quality to take apart an automatic watch, but then perhaps you would like to go one step further. If I were to buy a kit knowing what I do now, I would search for a set that also includes a movement holder (it is not the same as the case holder included here mind you!), a pin vice, a component probe, oiler, bellows and hand removing levers (the "presto" hand remover is easier to use but it didn't fit under the seconds hand on a watch I took apart, so I had to use the spring bar tool and screwdriver like levers). More tweezers, including some brass and plastic ones would be useful additions as well. Lastly, here are some other potentially useful things that come to mind (that I don't think you will find included in a repair kit but perhaps would like to include in your order): a sharpening stone, a parts tray, rodico, oil, oil holding pot, finger cots, peg wood, demagnitizer. Have fun!

This contains pretty much all the tools you could need to carry out basic watch repairs. If you don't know what you're doing I would recommend taking your watch to a jeweller rather than risking causing damage to your watch. However, for most people the basic task of changing a battery or altering the strap should not be too challenging. These tools will certainly allow you to do that. There are tools here for other tasks as well for those who either know what they're doing or don't mind a challenge. The tools are good quality, nicely constructed and clean of burrs and edges. The whole thing is nicely presented in a faux wood cardboard box which can also be used to keep the tools tidy and organised. There is an instruction leaflet inside the box which shows the basic tasks that the tools can be used for. As far as I can tell, this set covers the larger proportion of tasks needed in watch repair. You will of course need to separately source cogs, batteries, circuit boards and/or watch hands. This is a nice investment for people who want to save themselves some money on basic repairs or alterations, and is a good starter set for any beginning jeweller.

A great little kit for the money, I was very surprised and still can't believe I only paid 10pound for this kit

It wasn't packaged properly items loose inside. Nice kit and the chap delivering was lovely

I bought this in 2021. Since then it has more than paid for itself with the savings made by me changing watch batteries, shortening straps etc. not just for my own but family and friends rather than a jewellers. Nice presentation and a full range of needed kit. Plus a certain kudos for being able to do so!

Tutto perfetto grazie mille...

Schönes Werkzeug noch sehr gefällig in guter Sortierung und ordentlich dargestellt,Preis sehr gut Qualität sehr gut,schneller Versand

Jakość narzędzi przyzwoita, jak na cenę, pudełko również na plus. Kupiłem na początek przygody z zegarkami, do regulacji bransoletki oraz wymiany mechanizmu. Bransoletki nie udało się skrócić, ponieważ dołączone śrubokręty są zbyt duże (a informacji o ich wielkości nie ma w opisie produktu), natomiast aby wymienić mechanizm, przydatny byłby zestaw do montażu wskazówek. Zestaw zawiera narzędzie do demontażu wskażówek, a nie ma do montażu z powrotem, co wydaje się być nieco schizofreniczne :)

profesyonel ürün diye getirmiyorlar. illa gelsin derseniz astronomik gümrük bedeli istiyorlar. ama gelmediği halde satılmaya devam ediyor. 1 ayda iadesini zor aldım.
