Materials & Build
This tool is constructed from hardened 316L alloy steel to provide maximum rigidity under pressure. It measures 95mm in total length and features a 0.8mm tip clearance, allowing it to slide under the smallest hand stacks. The internal spring mechanism is calibrated for consistent tension, while the polished finish resists corrosion and wear over years of use in your workshop.

FAQ
Will this fit my Samsung Galaxy Watch?
This tool is designed for traditional watch hands found in mechanical or hybrid movements. If you are modding a hybrid Samsung Galaxy Watch or a traditional analog timepiece, this tool will safely remove the hands. For digital-only models, this tool is not required for standard maintenance.
Is it waterproof or shower-safe?
The alloy steel construction is rust-resistant, but we recommend keeping the tool dry. Moisture can affect the internal spring tension over time. If the tool gets wet, wipe it down with a soft cloth and allow it to air dry before placing it back in your toolkit.
How do I install it?
Place the twin tips under the watch hand you wish to remove. Ensure you use a dial protector to shield the watch face. Gently squeeze the side plungers to lift the hand straight up. This prevents the center pinion from bending during the removal process.
What if it doesn't fit?
We offer a 30-day return policy for all our tools. If the tips are too wide for your specific vintage movement or if the tool does not meet your repair requirements, you can return it for a full refund or exchange it for a different sizing option.
Does the steel cause scratches?
The alloy steel tips are polished to a smooth finish to minimize friction. However, we always recommend using a plastic dial guard between the tool and the watch face. This ensures that even with high pressure, your watch dial remains in pristine condition.
Once you have finished your repair, you can follow our watch band replacement guide to refresh the look of your timepiece. If you are working on a modern wearable, we also offer a variety of Samsung Galaxy Watch bands and tips on how to replace a watch buckle to complete your project.
