alw 0 Posted September 5, 2013 No mention of the picture on eBay. And yes, it failed to open the Rolex caseback. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Del Boy 0 Posted September 5, 2013 It took me a few times to get one of my casebacks off... I used a technique of pressure then twisting whilst still making sure bit contacting caseback didn't move, then bit more pressure and then twisting and allowing it to move. Obviously take clasp off first! Not sure if that makes sense but keep trying! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kennycoder 97 Posted September 5, 2013 Mine also has this god damn sheep. As for the rolex case-back, yea it's quite difficult to open with one of those. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheTinMan 13 Posted September 5, 2013 I love how the first three comments were serious attempts to help. I think the point is to look at those annoying characters, get angry, and the rage allows you the strength to open the caseback. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LightGeek 25 Posted September 5, 2013 It's too big. Inflate it fully and try again. Be careful not to puncture it on the lugs. You went for one of the cheapest sellers didn't you? http://www.rwg.bz/board/index.php?showtopic=54432 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SSTEEL 0 Posted September 5, 2013 You went for one of the cheapest sellers didn't you? Guilty as charged. I didn't need one, but had 99p available in the wife's paypal, so thought why not, 99p delivered, so wasn't too bad, but as you say, this thing is huge, and quite deflated.

Odyseus 1 Posted September 5, 2013 I've got exactly the same sticky ball but I have let deflate by about a 1/3 and have been able to open all case so far. You need to press hard and be able to turn at the same time, without fouling on the case lugs ( when the ball is large it will do this) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sms 0 Posted September 5, 2013 I made one using a racquetball wrapped in duct tape, backasswards, of course. It works pretty well, even on Rolex if it hasn't been put on by someone with 9 inch wrists.Doesn't work very well on PAMs though. My el cheapo caseback tool that came in a kit doesn't work very well on Pams either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scorpion 0 Posted September 5, 2013 I got mine from Reg and it worked great...it did get a puncture but seems to work just as well deflated, you gotta give it some power though so don't pussy around, grip it tight and give it some muscle PS: you are going the correct way I take it :suck: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
