Tool for easylink anchoring point adjustment

[Goose 104]

Hi all

Can anyone advise what the best tool to use for adjustment of the easylink anchoring position? I can see that there are 3 diveted holes and it is currently in the central position, but not sure if a standard Bergeon spring bar tip is the right size and if there is a technique to it?

Any advice welcome. Thanks.

This tool has everything you need as a Rolex power of multiple watches. The spring bar fork on the other end of the tool works perfectly.

I like the tweezers Bergeon 7825 which is almost a one on one copy as the Rolex tool 3200.
Designed to handle modern shoulder spring bars including the one on the easy link for Rolex watches.

I also have the one recommended by Mystro but prefer the tweezers.

Thanks both

I am planning to get the 7825 for bracket removal but just to clarify I was asking about the adjustment of the easylink anchoring points for microadjust - not the main spring bars. I just wasn't sure if inside the easylink the spring bar is the same size and therefore what the best tool for the job is.

It’s just a smaller Spring bar. That’s why I use just a simple spring bar fork. When doing it, keep a finger on the easy link so it doesn’t pop up because the spring bar will shoot out across the room. What I do is I pull or push the easy link in the direction I want to take it and compress each side of the spring bar in and then just slide the easy link in the direction until it pops into the next set of holes.

You can see on my Daytona I moved the micro adjustments to the last hole making the bracelet 5mm tighter.

This is my own little invention I came up with a few years back. I did several threads on this.
They are nothing more than green felt pads cut in half. I should’ve patent the idea. I have been using them on several watches over the years and the felt holds up on all my dive watches. They keep the clasp from scratching the Oyster link and the Jubilee links when tucked inside the clasp. You can find them at any hardware, Walmart, home improvement store, etc…

Tweezers work fine in this location

Thanks for all the input everyone - love the easylink protector idea!

Last question - I have the Bergeon 6767 F - is that the same tip as the 7825 and will it work on the smaller easylink springbar?
