Step by step instruction on how to replace the watch crystal (glass) on a wrist watch. This video shows the tools required, how to remove the crystal, measure it for replacement, and how to install a new crystal. To perform the crystal replacement the watch movement must be removed from the watch case - which I also demonstrate.
In this video I make extensive use of the Horotec Precision Press MSA06.135. I bought this press as part of a kit which included a number of the Delrin type dies shown in the video under the part number MSA06.136.
