Oyster Micro Adjust

I am curious what tool others are using beyond a toothpick to adjust the inside the clasp micro adjustment. I find my Bergeon 6767 to be tight and was curious what most people are using. On the old 93150's it was easy but these newer watches it takes more precision

I use a thin pin and collar punch tool (sorry not sure what it’s called) but works great.

I use the Bergeon 7825. Expensive, but works well and I’d rather not risk scratches my watch.

I’ve only done it once (when I set up my 116710), I used a very basic strap tool that came free with a couple of NATOs I bought. I am not at all bothered about the potential of a tiny scratch on the inside of my clasp where no-one will ever look.

Me, too. It’s a very expensive tool, but worth the money, if you need to swap out bracelets, on watches with very tight tolerances, like Rolex and Tudor. And, of course, it works well for adjusting these new oyster bracelet clasps.

I use a knackered screwdriver which I don't use for anything else. That and a thumb usually gets it done. If I'm removing/installing a bracelet I use the Bergeon 7825.
