I've seen the video. Is this the tool I'll need? http://www.ebay.com/itm/Watch-Strap-Pin ... 19cff49f8d Thanks. |

Right style, but doesn't look like it's Bergeon so may well be a Chinese knock off. Bergeon 6767F is the preferred choice and about the same price. |

do the chinese knockoffs work as well? The difference in price is 30$ on ebay vs. 8.50 with free shipping from amazon: http://www.amazon.com/7pc-Watch-Spring- ... geon+6767f Thanks. |

Chinese ones are much better at breaking, slipping and scratching your expensive watch. 30 seconds with Google will find plenty of places in different stores in multiple countries (not sure where you are) that sell the 6767F for a lot less than $30 (like half the price). |

Indeed. Got mine last year for c£13 on eBay UK. Beautifully built little thing it is too. |

There is a lot of pressure on the ends of that tiny fork when removing the spring bars. If not made from high quality hardened steel the tip will just wear out in no time. But check in your dentist tray, I've seen very similar tools in my dentist tray

Can this tool be used for any Breitling to change bracelets? |

Got the same tool, Watch Nut got. Works great. Switched out the bracelets with no problems. Thanks guys. And I checked my dental equipment. Doesn't look like I have anything similar. |
