Drilling lugs holes?

This requires some expensive special tool i think. I'm working as a watchmaker and have not seen such a tool in a regular workshop.
But I'm also very curious how it's made. Probably in a milling machine i guess

Do you think a dental drill will do?
most likely a specialty CNC that the factories use but i would imagine you could use a dental or tool makers drill with a diamond burr and rig up some type of crude fixturing so that you are able to maintain circularity of the hole (assuming you cant carefully do it all by hand).

Just take it to a good watchmaker. I had some holes on a Paul Picot drilled out to fit Rolex pins, no problem done in 10 minutes

...very difficult to do this correctly without the proper tools .... AND to have a 'smith do it right, is pretty cheap .. :cheers:
