The right tools & equipment really do make things easier. DWO removal tool merged

Not really a lot just yet, but purchased a watch case holder, and a set of Rolex case opening tools from Ace Timer in the US.

 

Next up I will be getting the RWG tool kit, but alas, I have to wait until Trailboss is back on the 18th :)

 

I noticed that Ace Timer has some nice reasonable priced watch cases too.

 

They have a superb track record on their ebay account, and upon following a link to their actual webshop, I managed to save almost 20 bucks :)

 

Link to their ebay..

Anyone else purchased from them?

Luthier has been waxing lyrical about their storage/winder combos.

 

Me? I prefer Lidl tea boxes.........£7.99, and £3 to fit out. :D

I got this one from Time By Mail. It came with the larger die for the DSSD.

That Die alone is about $50.

Guys, don't forget the RWG shop. Prices are wholesale (we don't make a profit out of it) so you'll generally get much higher quality for your dough than elsewhere.

Good call, will check prices, and compare to the ones I have found elsewhere, and if the prices are similar, I will get from RWG, and hope I get a deal on shipping.

Just checked, I will stick with what I listed above from RWG, as my source for those two items saves me almost $600.

We will get a price direct from our buyer in China for an order like that.

Beware of rep timers, ours are genuine TYMC units with English language instructions and screen language.

 

If you can save 600 bucks on that timer and tester I wanna see where from mate.

Both are from China mate, here's the links, and I have done my research on both, and many rep and gen enthusiasts own these too. There's even a review I found on the 1000 model timegrapher..

Bit of an update, finally purchased the highly recommended RWG tool kit yesterday, just waiting for stock atm. Also purchased a load of goodies from red rooster on ebay, but upon checking my tracking number, it looks like my package is being delivered somewhere in France, and not here in Finland :(

I will keep my eye on this as it may get redirected, but it is worrying considering the amount I spent on this package.

 

Few odds and sods I got recently..

 

Nano fibre polishing cloth XL

Micro fibre polishing cloth XL

Packet of Cap Cod

Jewellers gloves
