Normally this piece of magnet is very strong, as I had hard time taking it off from the ladder I was using.

Now, I am thinking of getting a 5 times bigger magnet (10cmx5cmx4 cm), but do you think this will damage the watch, I am asking because I know that magnets can damage some stuff. I have always been bad at psychics and chemistry, sorry if this sound silly.

Also, do you have any idea on how to pull a watch from a tiny hole?

Do you have access to 18kg's of organic carrots and a cup of pumpkin seeds?
