The correct tool will be a Bergeon 6767F - the springbar tool. One end has the fork for getting at the springbars in the lugs and one end has a depression for pushing the ends of the springbars like in the clasp.

Ye you told me this before and i bought it big waste of money


Care to expand on that? Why was it a waste of money? Did it break? Was it the wrong tool? Is there an alternative that you found easier to use? Did you still scratch up your lugs and/or bracelet?



No it didn't break nor i scratched the watch..When you put the tool in the hole between the lug and the bracelet there is not enough space to pry the spring bar and push out that side, when go to the other side of the lug and pry that side of the bar, the other side pops back in then i have to repeat the process again, so i found that to be a little annoying so i decided to try something thinner and i happen to have some dental picks from my mechanic days and anyway it's really easy and if you don't know whats going to work try it you can buy it anywhere and it costs a buck and if you want a real thin and sharp one they go for 5 bucks so if none of it works then buy the sppring bar tool

To each his own? Was it user error?



No it wasn't, it does work but with practice and it could scratch the bracelet on the inside not going to be noticeable though, the dentist pick is way easier and more available, but only for removing the bracelet not for adjusting
