I'm pretty sure that wouldn't work, after watching the press mark was using at Newent self distruct, the above method wouldn't be strong enough.

It may not work on Omega's but is a perfectly acceptable way of doing it. To insert you use the same tool but need to be a lot more carefull to keep it aligned.
Done many in my time like that, even made a tool that screwed in to do the ones on the 80's and 90s passats etc.
