JOREST Watch Press Tool Set, Back Case Closer for Closing
Product Overview
The JOREST Watch Press Tool Set is a precision-engineered repair kit designed specifically for safely closing the back cases of round dial watches after maintenance tasks such as battery replacement or internal servicing. This tool is ideal for watch enthusiasts, hobbyists, and technicians who need a reliable, user-friendly solution for resealing watch cases without risking damage to delicate components. Engineered exclusively for watches with pry-opening back covers—not screw-back or multi-groove types—this set ensures a secure, watertight seal through controlled, vertical pressure application. Whether you’re working on a vintage timepiece, a daily-wear watch, or a collector’s item, this tool simplifies the often-tricky process of reattaching the back case with accuracy and confidence.
Key Features
- Precision Case Closing: The rotating handle allows for slow, deliberate downward pressure, giving you full control during the closing process. This minimizes the risk of misalignment or slippage, ensuring the back case seats perfectly without disturbing the watch movement or crystal.
- Vertical Pressure Design: Unlike traditional angled press tools that can create uneven force distribution, this set uses a straight vertical lever system. This alignment of the power arm and lever maximizes downward pressure efficiency while reducing resistance, making the operation smoother and less physically demanding.
- Enhanced Stability: One of the most common issues with standard watch presses is the shifting of the watch or back case during compression, which can lead to failed closures or even damage. The JOREST tool’s design actively prevents movement, keeping the watch securely positioned throughout the process.
- Protective Film Included: A transparent anti-slip film is included to improve grip between the watch and the back case. This is especially important for watches with narrow rims, decorative inlays, or limited surface area, where slippage is more likely. The film increases friction, stabilizes the components, and helps achieve a consistent, accurate seal.
- Secure Mold System: The set includes multiple molds designed to support the watch glass without direct contact. Proper mold selection—choosing one slightly larger than the watch’s outer diameter—ensures the crystal remains suspended above the base, preventing cracks or crushing during pressure application. Correct mold use is essential for safe and effective operation.

Benefits & Use Cases
This tool set is perfect for routine watch maintenance tasks that require access to the interior, such as replacing batteries, inspecting gaskets, or cleaning internal components. It empowers users to perform these services at home without needing professional-grade equipment. The intuitive design makes it accessible even for those with limited watch repair experience, as long as the provided instructions are followed carefully. It’s particularly useful for owners of vintage watches, everyday timepieces, or collectible models with standard round cases and accessible pry-off backs. By ensuring a secure, even seal, the tool helps maintain the watch’s water resistance and overall integrity after service.
Important Notes
Before using the JOREST Watch Press Tool Set, confirm that your watch meets the compatibility requirements: it must have a round dial between 22mm and 42mm in diameter and feature a pry-opening back case. This tool will not work with screw-down or multi-groove back designs. Always select a mold that is larger than the watch’s outer diameter but not excessively so—this ensures the glass remains safely suspended and avoids direct pressure that could crack the crystal. For watches where the inner and outer glass diameters are very close, extra caution and strict adherence to the instructions are necessary. The molds must be fully tightened before use to prevent damage during operation. When applying pressure, keep the lever centered to avoid breakage. The tool ships unassembled; refer to the included English instruction manual for proper setup and safe handling procedures. For watches with narrow edges or decorative elements, always use the protective film to prevent slippage during pressing.
