Product Description
TWO (2) Extra Pins Included. Manufactured to strict quality standards this link remover is the best heavy duty twist movement tool to remove stubborn watch links. Most link removers use a small handle, but this larger model makes it easier to remove links. Link remover will push the pin out, and you will need a small needle nose plier to fully pull the pin out. Simply align the pin with the tool and carefully twist tool knob to push the pin out. Watch Band Link Remover for Bracelet Adjustments Watch Watch Band Link Remover for Bracelet Adjustments. Twist design makes it easy to remove or add links to your watch band. Every watch collector needs a watch adjuster as part of their collection. Stop wasting money taking it to a jewler when you can do it yourself. It pays for itself after 2 uses and lasts for many years. Easily alter your watch at home without scratching the band. Fits most bands using a pin system to hold links together. Comes with two extra pins for replacing bent pins. Many watch bands use directional link pins, therefore you must push in the direction of the pin. Improper use of the tool will damage the pin and your tool. Please be careful when pushing the pin. It should easily slide out with some force. If you are pushing very hard and no movement, try using some lubricant like WD40 to help the pin slide out.

 Very Easy To Use October 3, 2008
I found this tool very simple to use and very straightforward. I was easily able to remove the pins holding the links in my watch.
Now this tool won't push the pin completely out, but it pushes it out about halfway so you can easily pull it out with your fingers, at least I could.
The two extra pins are nice as well, though I doubt it will anytime soon that I will be using them. I pushed it out wrong the first time and bent the pin but was able to bend it back into it's original position.
Overall this is a fantastic tool to remove the pins in your watch and is completely easy to use.
A GREAT TOOL! September 25, 2008
I was hesitant to attempt to remove the links in all five of my watches - because of the negative reviews. But, it didn't take long to catch on. The arrows and lining up the pins really are the keys to the whole procedure. (If a retired 70-year-old woman can figure this out, anyone can.) Watches are always too big for my wrist. With this tool the problem is solved. And, it paid for itself after the first watch band was shortened.
Nice to have around, will pay for itself in the long run August 26, 2008
Before I offer more detailed analysis, essentially this worked as advertised, and I've sized two watches perfectly with this. It's nice to have, and it's already paid for itself (the Watch Hospital in Boston does excellent work, but the cost per watch makes this product quite desirable).
Now to the less appealing points: the plastic structure does suggest cheap quality and workmanship. The height-adjusting knob didn't adjust the height at all - so that element was essentially useless. To adjust the height, I used thin shims to align the watch band with the removing-pin. This may be another element that could cause a pin break: poor alignment of the watch band height to the angle of the removing pin.
It doesn't take any great pressure to remove the pins from the watch band; a little finesse is in order here. You don't need a blacksmith's touch.
Ultimately, this is a decent little unit that should work fine for you - just be prepared to exercise a little patience and a light touch, and you'll be happy with the results.
Great Product August 12, 2008
I've been looking for a tool like this for years to adjust my watches. Very easy to use.
 Bad choice. August 9, 2008
If you are not a profesional do not buy this item... Not instructions avaliable... may not work with the watch you bought.... I bought one of this items and was useless..
