Same as Bergeon 6825 Pliers to Fit Spring Bars, but comes with Bergeon 6825-FF Fine Fork Points instead of the standard fork end. Not For Omega!

Just a joke Don but bet someone makes a chinese tool, sure it wouldnt work as nice but i'm not spending that kind of coin on a spring bar tool even though i'm sure it's worth it!

Trev,

I have never seen a knockoff of that tool. The argument, from some, is that if you own a $4-10k watch then $150 is little enough to avoid scratches on the lugs and keep the value of the watch. Also, with some of the really tight solid link curved end pieces this tool makes changes a snap.

Thanks for getting my hopes up. That is a cool watch tool, you would think with the trouble he was having removing the bracelet he would have rerecorded to video. It was entertaining to say the least.

Just think how he might have butchered the lugs if he had tried it with a standard spring bar tool

Yes, I thought so too. No reason it shouldn't work just as well as the all SS model.
