We fill this cushion with a yielding black gel that takes the profile of a case or crystal laid face down on the bench. The surface yields under hand pressure as you apply a case wrench or lever. It gives a flat, stable seat while you remove or set a movement.
Gel body support
The gel core settles beneath the bezel and crystal, spreading the downward force across the surface of the work. It conforms to domed glasses and irregular case rims without bouncing.
Fifty five millimetre diameter
We size this disc at 55 mm across to support mid-sized wristwatches and small pocket pieces on the bench mat. The outer rim holds its shape so the gel stays centered under the case.
Opening and uncasing tasks
Place the watch face down when applying a case opener or pressing a snap back into position. It provides the same steady base when extracting a movement through the front or back.
Care on the bench
Keep the black gel face free of filings, swarf, and stray pegwood dust. Wipe the surface down with a dry cloth before laying down a polished bezel or finished crystal.

A note that touches this tool
Opening a stubborn case back
Snap backs against screw backs against monobloc cases, how a case key and its dies engage a fluted rim, why the case is held in a holder rather than in the hand, and what to do when the back has been opened badly before.
