Bracelet removal at Rolex UK

Hi, I watched a none lug hole bracelet being removed at Rolex UK on Tuesday and was interested to see the tool involved.
It consisted of a fairly substantial pair of tweezers with very fine fork ends. Both ends of the spring bars were compressed at the same time as it was squeezed inwards.
The technician said that the tool was not available to buy.
This is the nearest to the Rolex tool and is significantly more robust than the one that I saw and handled. The Rolex tool had the fine forks coming straight out of the end with no facility to have them angled down as in the photo.

The PF tool comes with the very fine fork ends with the replacement tips being the FF models.
This tool has just been upgraded by Bergeon to have a smoother action on the hinge.
