Fitting a new jewel to a watch. Part 1 of 2. Friction fit balance jewel hole is broken. Omega watch. @WatchRepairChannel

In this video tutorial I will show how to remove the old broken Omega watch jewel. The jewel hole is damaged and is effectively much larger than it should be.

To remove the jewel I am using a jewelling tool made by Favorite, which is very similar to the Bergeon/Seitz model.

I do not have this particular size in stock so I will post another video in a few days to show you how to refit the new jewel.
