AI-generated from the text of customer reviews
Customers are satisfied with the quality of the product. They mention that it works well for small pieces of jewelry, and the pin tip worked flawlessly. The product is also useful for small jobs around the house, such as cementing cords and thin chain into end bead connectors. The tiny needle-type point tip makes it easy to hit the right spot, and it's like a hypodermic needle. Overall, customers are happy with their purchase and recommend it to others.

Customers are mixed about the adhesion of the G-S Hypo Cement glue. Some mention that it is a fabulous glue and easy to use, while others say that it's the best adhesive for their jewelry making. The adhesive cured in about 15 minutes, and it works well to glue a watch crystal. However, some customers mention that the downside is that there is a constant flow of glue that comes out from the fine tip, and that it will plug up the hole until you use it again.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
One concern I had was how to keep the adhesive on the knot and not get it on the beads on either side, but this has such a small applicator (like a wire or fine needle) that it is easy to dispense a very small amount of glue in a very precise area. I let this dry for a few days, never paid attention to how long (but I like to err on the side of caution). It seems clear and flexible after drying, but it is holding knots my stretchy cord pretty well.
This is best for non-porous surfaces, according to the package. My elastic cord is non porous, at least on the macroscopic level that I can see. I am also keeping this around for jewelry repair (e.g., putting rhinestones that fall out of costume jewelry back in their settings), though I have not had occasion to try that use yet. However, the precise applicator tip would definitely be useful in such a situation.
This package has a lot of safety warnings about using it in a well-ventilated area and such. I am not too worried about that because of the extremely small amounts I am using at a time, but if you are gluing in large numbers of rhinestones, cabochons, etc., you may need to pay more attention to the warnings.
This is NOT superglue (no cyanoacrylate). It is supposedly flammable and must travel via ground, so it may not arrive in two days. But, one tube is fairly large considering the amount of product you use at once, so it will last a long time.
Also, the delivery was fast and professional.
Thank you!
In my picture, the left and right small dials were the ones which came off. No glue had to be cleaned off, either, because a tiny amount did the job, as I hoped. The picture shows the successful and completed repair.
Doing research online, it was also suggested to use a toothpick for application from a puddle rather than applying it directly, because it's stringy. That was a great idea! It's very stringy and it was definitely easier to get a small amount of glue onto the tiny dials. Cleanup of excess glue can be accomplished with alcohol, but I just used a tiny amount and no residual glue existed, with the hope of avoiding tedious cleanup--success!
It wasn't easy to manage since it becomes tacky and stringy quickly, but I applied a small amount onto small spots of each dial, using toothpicks, and then pushed them into their retaining spots.
The tube spilled out glue so quickly that I couldn't easily put the cap back on without glue pouring out. I probably squeezed too hard to make the puddles to dip the toothpicks into, and it was just continuing to release the applied pressure of the compressed tube. Even if I can't reuse the tube (I have no other use!), for under $10 it's absolutely worth it for not wasting money on watch repair for this.
If you're a careful and patient person, you can very easily repair your own watch if the problem is cosmetic, like pieces falling off of the face. It turns out that the inside of the crystal wasn't perfectly clean, either, so it looks better now than when it was new!
