Worked well enough to get pins out and put pins back in the Watch Band. However, I bent and broke off 2 of the Tool Pins because they were too long and thin (and the Steel too soft), and because the pin in the Band was too tight to get started pushing it in. I had to cut off and shorten the small end of the Tool Pin to just long enough to get the stubborn Band Pin started pushing it in (without bending), then I changed to a long Tool Pin to push the Band Pin out the rest of the way. This metal Tool works much better than the another model that is made of plastic. I would have easily given this Tool 5-Stars if they had included more Tool Pins including a couple of shorter Tool Pins, the Tool Pins could also be made from a harder/stronger Steel that doesn't bend and break so easily. Still trying to find more Tool Pins to replace the ones I bent and broke.Read full review

This little device works well for what it is but be prepared to do alot of hand alignment with thinner bracelets for the pin will not line up with the little ram unless you put some folded up paper to raise the link. Worked great with no problem for a Rolex President type watch band. For the price you cant go wrong even for adjusting 1 band is less than a jeweler.

This tool is very cheap, but it does the job with two tiny modifications. First, I greased the threads slightly to make the screw turn easily and more precisely. More important, I trimmed about half off one of those push rods they give you to push the pins out with. The steel is very thin and flimsy, and it will often bend rather than push out the pin on your watch. By cutting it down to half length, it became much less likely to bend, and it pushed out the pins with ease. If you really need the full length to get the whole pin out, just switch the short rod for a full length one after you get the pin started out. I found that once it started, the rest was easy. Very good with those slight modifications.

Simple, affordable and effective. It must be correctly aligned or the the tip will bend and probably break. It also must be used on the correct side of the link pins or they will not come out fully. Properly done it is very easy, quick and effective. A great value for anyone with a smaller wrist and multiple watches. Additional tools are a bonus. Pays for itself with one use. A pleasant surprise!

Works as intended. Took a little getting use to the use of it. But when I got the actuaal use of it - Worked like a charm - Most likely not a professional watch maker tool - But for the home hobbyist or the occasional home use - I totally recommend the product.
