Quality tyme.net gives a 13% discount on stuff

Just bought the Rolex Sea Dweller toolkit (mainly for the Ref. 2100 tool to make changing links and removing bracelets easier) for $163.51 shipping included! Thee little toolkits are pretty tough to find and cost more on EBay. I like the idea of having a screwdriver that matches the bracelet screws exactly. Now I just have to source some screws for my GMT II bracelet which has a couple of dinged ones.

You could have bought a very good Bergeon screwdrivers with 1.4mm and 1.6mm blade and lug pin tool for a lot less that what it cost you. IMHO thats almost daylight robbery for something thats supplied free with watches like the SD.

This could be good news for anyone who is trying to collect their SD's full set if they didn't get the original toolkit.

True. But I like the idea of having the real Rolex tool complete with the pouch and stuff. I plan on storing extra parts in it like spare spring bars, bracelet screws, etc.
