The fabric covered, zippered hard case makes a satisfying impression. It's easy to hold in one hand and there is additional space inside for additional tools or wiping cloths. The friction pin remover tool is easy to use. Unfortunately, the push pin cannot be replaced. If you snap it because you have misaligned the push pin with the bracelet's friction pin, the tool is useless. In fairness, it will not snap easily. If bent, it can be straightened with long nose pliers a number of times before metal fatigue will take its toll. My impression from a phone call to the company is that they might replace a broken tool on an 'ad hoc' basis. Caution: some pins are partially threaded and need to be unscrewed rather than pushed through. My advice is to buy an ocular loupe to review every different watch band before you 'operate'. The pin remover kit includes a flathead screw bit, a nail set (very useful to reset a friction pin just below the braclet link surface), and two specialized, notched-head bits. These bits are used to disengage and adjust a spring-loaded clasp pin where needed. The business end of the tools is protected with small plastic 'nose' guards. Hold onto them. When you are using the nail set, you won't want to hammer damage the other, notched end of the tool. If you have an Invicta watch, this is a great accessory. If you have any other watch brand and anticipate adjusting a band, this is an excellent entry level kit that should satisfy your need.

Great for the occasional adjustment!

This kit is great for making the occasional adjustment to your watches. The carrying case is nice and the cleaning cloths are a nice way to keep your watches beautifully polished. It comes with a pin pusher for metal band watches, a tool for removing leather bands, and a standard screwdriver. The only negative thing I have to say about it is the little tool thats used to push the pins out of metal watch bands is a little on the flimsy side. It has a long pin that pushes the pin out of the link, but just a little resistance and the pin on the tool can bend. I've had to straighten it out on mine at least 6 times now. It hasn't broken yet, but it seems to just be a matter of time before it does.

It could be more complete...

br /This kit is very good for use in trips. If it had a small hammer and 1 or 2 tools more, it would be much better!

If you are a watch collector like me, you have to get one of this very nice repair kit from Invicta. A famous brand watch maker and one of the best. And if you are not, at least you can do sizing your watch by yourself and save your trip to jewelers. Trust me it's easy and worth it.

The kit is a handy little kit that is a fit in the case if you are going somewhere and are taking a couple of watches as well, also you can keep this in you office drawer as well if something happens to your watch at work and you can fix it there.
br /I also suppose if you buy invicta it is another little gadget to have hanging around.
