AP crystal AR offering

[chris3007]

Tried to search eBay for ap tool bit, found nothing. Guru is it possible if you make us a simple ap tool bit and send it together with the crystal?
Anyone else with suggestion (I don't have cnc/dremel) ?

You dont need a dremel. Just a screwdriver, a saw, a file and 30min time.

A saw and a file? How do I saw the screwdriver until it makes a hole like that?

 

[SSTEEL]

Use a vice.

Buy from rg member or ask someone make for you. Once buy vice bench or tools you spending lot of money

S.Brunei, to be honest, if it fails already on a easy tool how you want to replace the crystal then??
Replace a crystal at a AP is not the easiest thing. So you better think about it twice before you crack your watch.

Agreed, the right tools are indeed needed for these AP's..

How can you say it is an easy tool? It certainly is not so easy to buy because it is not available anywhere.
Secondly, making the tool maybe looks easy for someone used to crafting or someone with the right tools, but it certainly does not look that easy for me as an amateur in making special tools.

Replacing a crystal is easy, crystal press is available for sale at my local watch repair shop. I can also ask them to do the crystal replace for me.

Okay, now I'm getting confused what should I do? Buy vice bench and saw my screw driver? Use regular needle for the job? Hmm...

long thin tweezer a try. Factory bolt not always tight so some tweezers work. If no luck opens a wanted thread and maybe local guy or nice man can help you

Are there any members in EU that would offer do this for those that don't wish to experiment by self, or the 8+ week wait from the modders? (for a small fee, of course)..

(PM me if you'd rather keep it secret, obviously I'd only send to VIP's/well known members)

I can help, and have a 2-3 day turnaround, not 8+ weeks lol.

Buy high quality tweezers if you don't have the toolbit
