| Bench job | Opening and closing a case |
We machine the 5537 key to engage the fluted rims of waterproof screw-back cases without rocking across the points. The handle gives enough purchase to start a stubborn thread or run a freshly greased back down to its stop. You seat the chosen die into the drive ring before bringing it down on the watch.
Die teeth profile
The milled teeth around each die match the pitch and perimeter profile of Oyster casebacks. They bear against the vertical flanks of the case fluting rather than riding up over the crests under hand torque.
Handle and drive head
The central handle gives your palm broad surface contact while your fingers steady the outer ring. You can apply vertical down-force with one hand while turning, keeping the die flat against the back.
Interchangeable die fit
Each die drops directly into the keyed recess of the drive ring. The interface takes the turning load squarely, so the die will not cock sideways when you break loose a dry case gasket.
Bench storage
We house the handle and the matching dies together in a dedicated storage tray. Keeping the set together stops loose dies from rolling into movement trays or nicking other case tools on the bench.

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.
