Materials & Build
Crafted from hardened 302 grade stainless steel, this tool features a non-magnetic finish that is essential for mechanical watch movements. The tips are hand-finished to ensure perfect alignment, while the body measures exactly 120mm in length. This construction resists most common acids and prevents the buildup of static or magnetic charges that could disrupt your watch's timing. The matte finish reduces glare under bright workbench lights, allowing you to see every microscopic detail of the movement.

FAQ
Why do I need an anti-magnetic tweezer?
Mechanical watches are highly sensitive to magnetism. Standard steel tweezers can become magnetized over time and transfer that charge to the hairspring, which causes the watch to run fast or stop entirely. This tool prevents that risk during repairs, ensuring your movement remains accurate after you close the case back.
Can I use this for changing a watch battery?
Yes, it is ideal for quartz watches. The fine tips allow you to lift the battery clip and handle small cells without short-circuiting the battery or scratching the movement plates. It provides much better control than using your fingers, which can leave oils and salts on the battery surface.
How do I clean the tips properly?
You can wipe the tips with a lint-free microfiber cloth or a small amount of isopropyl alcohol to remove skin oils. Because it is made from hardened stainless steel, it resists corrosion from cleaning agents. Keeping the tips clean ensures a better grip on polished watch parts and screws.
Is this suitable for removing spring bars?
While it can help position spring bars or pull them out once they are loose, we recommend a dedicated spring bar tool for the initial compression. This tweezer is best for picking up and placing the bars or screws once they are free from the watch lugs.
Will the tips bend if I drop them?
The tips are hardened for durability, but like all precision instruments, they are vulnerable to impact. We recommend keeping the protective cap on when the tool is not in use. If you avoid using them to pry heavy objects, the alignment will stay true for years of use.
