Description

Specialized watchmaker's tweezers. Two narrow bands of medium-gauge stainless steel [?] have been joined together with a spring-loaded screw at the fulcrum. The proximal ends have been gently curved outward to form the handles. The area beyond the fulcrum has been gradually tapered down to very thin tips, each of which has a semi-circular cut-out that fits around a screw or similar object.
