Thread: Watch Band Link Pin Remover

  1. #1

    Watch Band Link Pin Remover

    Has anybody any experience or recommendation for Ebay link pin removers?

    This sort of thing:

    Can they be used to both remove and push in links?

    Ta in advance.

    I have had one of these for quite a while and it is excellent. Certainly recommend it. It can both remove and refit pins.

    Maplin sell an almost identical one too. Most stores stock them I had a choice of 3 to go to last week when I needed one.

    I have the Seiko one but they are probably a bit more difficult to track down at a reasonable price these days.

    In the Sotadic Zone, apparently.

    Mine is very similar to the 2nd one you linked to. Cheap and cheerful and does the job fine.

    I always used a jewelers soft tipped hammer , a small pin tool and a hard plastic base with slits in. I had a cheapy screw pin type tool but it bent and scratched a link so never really trusted them since
