Taidda- 5pcs Movement Adhesive, Watch Dial Sticking Waterproof Watch Adhesive, Super Durable for Watch Repair Watchmakers

I hadn't had a project that made use of these adhesive dial pads before, but when the need came up I ordered these from Taidda. I wasn't sure what to expect, so when they arrived it took me a few minutes to figure out exactly how to remove the actual "adhesive pad" from the bulk sheet and remove the protective top cover from it. I actually destroyed a number of them working out the process to get a pad free and ready to apply to the movement top plate. The way I found success turned out to start with using a sharp edged tool (in my case an Exacto knife with a standard blade) to get between the adhesive pad and the slick surface of the bulk backing-sheet. Once the pad was off the sheet and still sticking to the knife blade on its edge, I then used another sharp tool (in this case I used either a disposable scalpel I had or one of my Bergeon screwdrivers in one of the really small sizes) to catch the edge of the paper top cover and get under it to peel it back off of the pad itself. This usually left just the adhesive pad, clear of all covers and ready to place on the watch movement plate where I wanted it to go. Since both sides of these pads are sticky with adhesive (after all, if they weren't how would they hold the watch dial to the movement?) it takes some careful maneuvering of the pad to first place it so it will lay out just where you want it. You don't want to cover any jewels or pivot points, otherwise you will have difficulty oiling those points. If the pad doesn't lay out how you want it, it is possible to gently lift the pad up and off and reposition it, as they don't leave any adhesive behind. If you somehow screw-up the placement and destroy the pad (they do have a propensity to bunch-up and need to be "tossed") Taidda does fit a "shipload" of them on the backing sheets, so you have a lot of replacements. This allows you to place the pads just where you want and need them to be. So, a little trial-and-error to learn how best to work with them and these dial pads turn out to be an easy to work with, mostly forgiving, easy-to-correct any mistakes with and a very affordable way to attach a watch dial to a watch movement. Oh, the project I used these on was a vintage, no-name European pocket watch my wife bought and the movement turned out to be trash. It only worked occasionally when she got it, and when I went through servicing it there was no way to save the movement due to multiple problems. The case is lovely, as is dial, which is why she bought it. She didn't care what made it work, she just wanted a pretty vintage watch. So I ordered an ST3600 manual wind movement and found it fit the case perfectly, and despite the movement and the pocket watch having been made about half-the-world apart as well as 100 years different in time, everything fit. That included the original dial that has a sub-seconds hand, and the Taidda dial pads are holding the dial in place on the new movement perfectly. Thanks to luck, and these dial pads, my wife has her beautiful, working-and-keeping-time-better-than-new, vintage pocket watch! Check out the photo!

I used these after modifying a watch dial that was designed for a 3.8 crown to a 3.0 crown. These allowed me to stick the dial to the movement after removing the dial feet. I’ve used these on two different watch builds and they make the dial stick to the movement very well.

Works as advertised, I have enough to last a lifetime. Thank you

Works great and helps me when I'm trying to repair and build some watches

I had an Alaskan leathers seat cover before, but it was a smaller size and had many years of wear and weathering. Cool in summer, comfortable in winter. I wouldn't want to ride without it.

There's not much to say. It doesn't feel like these stickers are extremely permanent, at least upon initial placement. I was able to lift my dial from my movement and re-position it multiple times, which is a good thing. Would recommend!

I have been putting together a Captain Willard clone, and with the NH35 movement and a 6105 dial, they do not match up using the dial feet. Using couple of these held the dial just fine. As a plus, I have a lifetime supply of these dial dots.

Does the job of glueing the watch face to the movement. Arrived within a week.
