I am looking for a watch repair kit with the proper tools to adjust my bracelet.

I would like to get this asap, so I was wondering if any of you could suggest a store where I can go in and purchase one (rather than online).

I guess if there aren't any stores that carry this in my area, I might have to go to Sears or Home Depot and look for the smallest screwdriver they have in the tools department.

I've seen them at Harbor Freight tools surprisingly enough.

Thanks for the reply, speedmaster. I've never heard of them before, but went to their site and there is one about 25 miles from me.

Anyone else know where to get the proper tools?

I went into a local watch shop to have a new crystal put on my Seiko Perpetual Calendar and asked the owner. He ordered everything I asked for and had it for me when I picked up the watch.

Good idea, but I need one asap. Might have to take the haul to Harbor Freight.

Anyone every try an eyeglass repair kit screw driver or is that sacrilege?

Yeah, you should be able to buy a nice tool kit at your nearest watch shop.

I went to the local Sears tools department and purchased some mini screwdrivers. 1.4X40 size did the trick as I was able to properly adjust my oyster bracelet.

Thanks for the help. :)
