Thinking of buying the Alpha Caseback Tool for opening my speedmaster professional. Don't say take it to a jeweler....LOL....took it recently to 3 top (so called) notch jewelers.....none could open it with their little tools.... but they had probably $10 Million in Rolex, Omega, Breitlings, 18k, 14k, etc watches & diamonds.....amazing I had the same tools.....would have done it myself if I could......case hasn't been open in probably 40+ years & is very tight.....none of these jewelers had more than adjustable hand wrench & vise...LOL......seen the Alpha Caseback tool on Lunar Oyster website....any help here would appreciate.
Why not buy Pahawi's case opener? https://omegaforums.net/threads/pah...die-caseback-opener-highly-recommended.39120/ The "LunarOyster" one is a direct ripoff of his design... so much so, it got its purveyor kicked off this very forum... https://omegaforums.net/threads/pah...seback-opener-highly-recommended.39120/page-9
That tool is a copy of the tool that @Pahawi designed and still sells. Buy from him instead. There is a long thread about this here somewhere(I am a bit internet/computer challenged so cannot find it and link to it properly, sorry) And @ewand was faster than me...
ok...thanks to all.....I didn't find Pahawi's on my first google search for Speedmaster caseback removal tool.....looks good... probably get me one
Just message him directly on here, very easy to get a hold of. Waiting on mine to be delivered any day now.
Don't worry. We won't tell you to take it to a jeweller, because you need to take it to a watchmaker...
