What it isSomething that holds the work
Bench jobSeeing the work

This wire holder keeps your eyeglass positioned over the eye socket while leaving both hands free for the work. Formed from stainless spring wire with a coiled section, it grips the body of the loupe and wraps around the head. You set the tension yourself by bending the wire to suit your brow.

Stainless spring wire

We form the main band from stainless spring wire that holds its shape under daily bench use. It resists perspiration and wipes clean with a bench cloth at the end of the day.

Coiled wire loop

The retaining end uses a flexible coiled loop to grip the barrel of the loupe. It accepts standard watchmaker eyeglass bodies across different magnifications without slipping off.

Fit at the brow

The wire rests against the temple and across the crown of the head. You can adjust the curve by hand so the glass sits square to the movement without pressing hard into the orbit.

Clear hands at the bench

Holding an eyeglass with facial muscles alone ties up attention during delicate escapement adjustments. This band carries the weight of the optic so both hands remain steady on the tweezers.
