Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the PEEK Watch Needle Manual Installation Tool used for?
A: This tool is designed for manually pressing and seating watch hands onto movement stems during watch assembly, servicing, or repair. The PEEK traceless needle tips allow you to push hands into place without scratching or marking the dial or hand surface.
Q: What does "PEEK traceless" mean?
A: PEEK (Polyether Ether Ketone) is a tough, non-marring engineering plastic. "Traceless" means the tips will not leave marks, scratches, or impressions on polished watch hands or delicate dial surfaces — unlike metal tools that can easily cause cosmetic damage.
