Eye glass magnifier for watchmakers and jewellers

Lightweight plastic-mounted watchmaker eyeglasses  for various hands-free inspection and repair tasks. Comfortable for use over long periods. These loupes are very popular for close examination of watches, jewels and electronic components, even by bird fanciers who use them to evaluate pigeon eye sign and apply medication. Eye loupes have a larger lower section, designed to fit snugly into the eye socket, like a monocle. There’s a bit of a knack but once you’ve got it, you’ll be able to see intricate objects like watch batteries, mobile phone SIM cards, jewellery hallmarks, electronic circuitry and old coins much more clearly
