And that whole buy once, cry once thing.

I'm ready to start putting together my watch tools.

Those of you that work on watches, what are you must-haves...the tools you wouldn't dare replace with something else?

I believe my first purchase will be hand levers and setting tools. Then screw drivers.

Y’all got any recommendations? What do you love? Or what should I look at first? Pretend I’m starting from scratch.
