What tool do you guys use to get in on the rolex spring bars? I love a strap and bracelet change but I've not been able to do that on my my new rep as yet.
I've got several tools I have used without issue on my seikos but on the rolex (in this case an explorer 214270) they are too big. The watch case and strap has a very tiny opening to get into the spring bar.

On the rolex forums they all seem to go with Bergeon 7825 tweezers as they have a very fine point that fits in without the need to file it down.
I can't see that everyone with rep pays upwards of £90 for a spring bar tool? or do you?

What else have people found that fits and works well?

Always good to get something tried and tested, so much junk out there.
Will give something like that a go, thanks.
