This worked on my Tag watch that 2 places couldn't do - but it was too small for the Apple Watch strap.

Works fine on my Invicta's and Accurist's and a good bonus to have all of those extra pins. I would have bought it at this price just for the pins, which is exactly what I have just done for a little more than this cost; but all the way from China! - Rats. Be aware it's not 'professional' quality but it certainly does the job (only mostly though, from other comments). Heated.

16pc set is a bargain even if you only use it once.I think this will come in handy as I've just bought the deal for the Seiko kinetic on here .Good timing op :sunglasses:

Any advice on which kit to buy if you are just adjusting links on a sony smart watch 2? I went to just plum for the 16 pc kit but the £1.43 pin remover has 12 spare pins (is that important? do you need spares?)

I got this before; it's absolute garbage. The screwdriver handle started spinning independently of the head, and, I still can't change a strap on a cheapo casio that I've got... Just FYI.

My brother bought the larger set posted in the first comment. He asked me to use it to replace the battery in his watch and shorten the strap on his sons new watch. I'm usually good with intricate jobs (like soldering phone and laptop motherboards). I too found the screwdriver failed and began to spin in the handle, I proceeded to use the long-nose pliers to help pinch the shaft and rotate only to find not only did the screwdriver head deform but the end of the pliers also deformed so much so the jaws no longer mated.
These are really tiny tools and need to be accurately crafted from strong materials to take apart well crafted timepieces unfortunately they are rubbish made from the poorest quality plastics and cheese grade metal. I threw the lot in the bin and advised him if he had any love for his watch he would never allow such crap tools or parts anywhere near it.
Its cheap enough to have a pop if you like screwing around with £$%^ tools but I would seriously think first before you use one of those el-cheapo pins to keep your watch attached
