Watch Bracelet Band Strap Link Removal Tool

I never write reviews, but seeing how the previous ones on this helped me decide to purchase this, I thought I'de leave one. This device is awesomely simple and efficient. I'm in love with Michael Kors watches, which have strap widths of 14 cm, and cannot fit into the other horizontal-laying link removal tools listed. I had bought one for my first MK, and it fixed it, but all the pins broke, with this tool, however, the pointy tool (i dont know what it's called) is sturdy and easily pushed the pins out with no more than 3 swift knocks of a hammer. There was a slight knick to one of the links, but that's because I let the pointy tool move. The trick is to guide it with your finger a bit as u knock the head. No, it won't hit your finger! But yeah, it made sense and I can use it again and again for any more watches that I buy (which annoyingly are already expensive enough).

It works well but not to strong . vey good for the price

Very cheaply made but works if you're careful. Sure wish I could find a solid one that would last a lifetime

Good price fast shipping excellent seller, bought for a friend

Not as good as the kit that comes with the hammer. You would need to buy both, it this once just isn’t really needed.

Quick and easy - works like a charm. On my watch bands the removable links have direction arrows indicating the direction to remove the pin. This tool made removal or addition of links no task at all; however,you will also need a small hammer and in some cases a pair of needle nose pliers may also be required to completely remove the pin once it has been started using the Link Removal Tool. In my case, once the pins were started they were easily pulled just using my fingers.

Got this to be ready for the replacement watch band I ordered. I used it to size the band I already had. Took me three minutes! Line up the band and pin pusher, tap, it's out. Done. 9/1-- If you are looking for a tool that you will use only sparingly, this fills the bill. Don't expect an inexpensive tool to stand up well if you need it every day. There are more expensive, higher quality, metal units.

This item is very cheaply made and not practical for most watches. It is very poorly designed for its purpose. I regularly remove and add watch links and I had high hopes for this when I ordered it but the first time I used it I knew it was not designed properly. The most important part of removing any links is that the band has to be perfectly lined up with the pin pusher. The pin pushers are very fine metal and the tips will break if they are at any kind of angle. This device virtually assures the band will be at at tilt and therefore there is a very good likelihood that the pin removal tip will break off and that is exactly what happened the first time I used it. There is almost no way to lie a watch band on this device to get a straight in push. With the Plier type link removal tool I usually use, I break a tip off maybe every 100th watch. This one broke the tip the first time. So its back to my link removal pliers! On the positive side it only cost me about $6.00 so I am not out much but I should have known it was too good to be true!
