DeWitt Academis strap removal (Screwdriver???)

[jj69]

Has anyone found the proper tool to remove the strap on the DeWitt Academia?

It is NOT a standard TORX driver (TORX is a 6 pointed star, the DeWitt has 5 points)!

What a pain in the neck!

Has anyone found anything for this at Home Depot or Harbor Freight???

use a standard flat blade screw driver that grabs 2 of the points, go slow and don't force it. If you don't have a small flat blade that fits well, don't attempt.

Sorry for bumping a very old post, but I think I'm going to be having this issue and the above link isn't working. My dewitt academia is in transit, but it shipped with the wrong band. I ordered 2 bands when i purchased it, and decided I wanted the other band on it.

Is there now a tool available for switching the band? Has anyone figured out how to do it? Thanks!
