I recently passed a landmark (?) birthday. Amongst the expressions of Congratulation, and a really nice prezzie or two, some friends gave me a couple of things. The first is a rather nice and eye-candy stuffed book :-

However, and this is where the danger lies, I also was given this:-

Try to remove your cat's gallbladder first. If you are successful, you can reasonably attempt to service some vintage watches with a modicum of confidence. 🙄

Don't see why - I've already got the needle-nosed pliers for all my caseback opening needs 😁

... and this all comes in a convenient zipped leather pouch so you'll be able to take your kit with you on vacations for those essential watch repairs.

Stick it on the sales forum quick.
Or your life will be way more expensive going forward with straps, clasps and all other modifications you can do yourself with your kit 😀
