Invicta Watch Sizing Tool

I got a new watch (not an Invicta, by the way) and with my thin wrists I knew I would have to remove some links. I didn't want to take the time to take it somewhere to get if fitted and figured, how hard could it be? Well, after 30 minutes with a hammer, jeweler screwdrivers and paper clip pieces I had removed one link! I read the reviews for this and although there were some less than enthusiastic reviews took a small chance (it really isn't that expensive!)and ordered it. In less than 5 minutes, I had removed links from both sides, put the newly sized watch on, realized I needed to put a link back, did it and I am done. What a pleasure after trying this without the right tool. Like the reviews say, watch for the arrow on the link, take your time and get the positioning right and don't rush and you will be fine. Also, it does seem pretty cheap and flimsy, but it get's the job done. I just used that for another reason to work slow and deliberately.

Your better off buying a watch tool kit. I'm a huge fan of Invicta. I have always taken the watches to a Jewler to have the band sized. I finaly decided to purchase the Sizing tool in order to save time and money. Thing is, This tool is worthless. First of all, absolutely no directions are included. Not that it is overly complicated, but it would be nice to have a little info with it. Next, the tool and the pushing pin are very flemsy. Last and most important, The rail that the watch band is supposed to sit in while you push the band pins out, is too freaking small!!! It would work perfect for normal watch bands, however, anyone that owns an Invicta knows that the bands are extra wide. Why they would retail something that has the Invict name on it that doesn't work is a mystery to me... Dont Buy!

There is another "Invicta Watch Sizing Tool" on Amazon with many more reviews. The main point from half of those reviews is that it is easy to break this tool. The only difference I see from that tool and this one is that this one is yellow. There are no instructions included with this product. With a little research online, in 5 minutes I removed 2 links from my new watch and I am wearing the watch right now. I am going to give you the valuable piece of information that I found online. When you look at the pins in the links of the watch's bracelet, on one side there appears to be a split in the pin, as if you were going to use a small screwdriver on it. The other end of the pin is solid. This is the key to not bending or breaking the pin on this tool. Line the tool's pin up with the solid end of the pin in the bracelet, making sure it is in the hole, and slowly turn the knob on the tool. It will push it out enough so you can grab the pin with tweezers of pliers and finish pulling it out. When you remove the links and put the watch's bracelet back together, you can by hand push the pins back into the links. They will not go all the way in, so you can use this tool to push it all the way in.

i've seen many bad reviews about this particular piece of equipment, and i'm sure the reviewers had good reason to crib about it, but i personally found this to be a decent tool for sizing watches. i have 2 metal watches, one invicta and the other a gift from my dad and i used this tool to size the links for both watches and it worked fine for me. sure the plastic is flimsy and squeaks a lot, but i've kind of used it to my advantage as an indicator of when i'm applying too much pressure in the wrong spot. if you've aligned the watch band just right and you're sizing pin makes good contact with the link pin on the watch then the link pin should come out on applying just a little torque to the sizing handle. for putting the link pins back in, i would recommend putting them back in by hand and then applying pressure on them against a desk or some solid object ( hammering with a rubber mallet is the best, but i don;t have one of those). overall, the build quality leaves a lot to be desired, but the tool does its job

I gave this tool only three stars because I ordered it one day after receiving my Invicta Men's 15491 Subaqua Analog Display Swiss Made Automatic Silver Watch. This watch needed to be sized down. There is no indication by anyone that this tool will not work on my new watch. It does not. The watch band on the Invicta Men's 15491 Subaqua Analog Display Swiss Made Automatic Silver Watch is too wide to be used in this tool. I own other Invicta watches that this tool will work on the bands. I have other brands of watches that this tool will work on. It will not work on the watch I bought it specifically for. Amazon, Invicta and the sellers of these tools should run a disclaimer on this tool as to not fitting watch bands above a certain width. Other than that, the tool does perform as described. do some research or watch a YouTube video on how to use this tool and you will not have some of the difficulties that others have described.

I rate this one star because you can use it to a certain extent. But don't think you can use it on watch bands wider than 24mm or watch bands that have pins that are tight in their place. Nowhere does it state that. It is also made of the cheapest, weakest, most fragile plastic that has ever been invented. If you put pressure on it, the plastic bends and creaks and wants to break. The pin pusher on mine broke while sizing a bracelet. I was left to do it the old fashioned way, with a thin paper clip. It does come with extra pin pushers so I guess they expect the pins to give out. There are many excellent watch sizing tools out there. No need to waste money on this one. Invicta should be ashamed to put their name on such a tool.

This is great for sizing your watch band and not have to scratch the watch. Glad I bought it.

Tried to remove links from my wife's TAG. The pin bent and broke off midway through the process. The tool is very cheap and I recommend saving your money and paying a jeweller to remove links for you.

Muy mala calidad , se ve separada cada pieza , y tiene rebabas en todas partes , malísima calidad , fue un error comprarlo, está mejor la calidad de la envoltura .

I am sure it worked well but never had to use it. Give it as a gift with the watch.
