    Last week when I changed the dial and hands over on my Invicta I tried to use my movement holders but just could not get away with using them

    What alternatives  M38222Group_cmyk

    what alternatives are there ? what do members use ??

    are these any good and if I used them would I have to remove the stem to make the movement sit correctly ?

    What alternatives  M0984_pic1_cmyk

    they may work, but you might find its case of "fits everything but fits nothing" a bit like an adjustable spanner;) they are cheap enough though

    they look to be tapered inside so may work, but you will have to keep the stem installed to prevent the movement from tipping over which it may still do.
    cousins are easy to use, when you make your account tick trade account
    its expensive to buy one item though as the post is min £2.50
