Horofix Ergonomic Angled Spring Bar Tweezers
Hello, I have looked through this forum and most people say to shell out the cash for Bergeon 7825 Spring Bar Tweezers over the Horofix.
Only thing, is many of the threads are older and I don't see any comparison to the possibly newer ergonomic style tweezers from Horofix. Anyone have feedback on these or stick with the Bergeon? Horofix: https://www.esslinger.com/horofix-er...-bar-tweezers/ Bergeon: https://www.esslinger.com/bergeon-78...-bar-tweezers/ |

I went with the Bergeon since there was no data on the Horofix ergonomic version.

I own the non ergonomic Horofix model and use them frequently. I have yet to break a tip on them, knock on wood. I went the Horofix route rather than Bergeon, because the Horofix included spare tips and I have not had very good luck with Bergeon springbar tools with their tips being quite fragile. When I was researching whether to buy the Horofix vs Bergeon at the time, the cost of the replacement tips swayed me to the Horofix and I don’t regret my purchase.

I bought the Horofix regular version and also ordered a set of ergonomic tips with it. I used the straight tips to swap out a bracelet on my GMT. I have yet to use the ergo tips but I just changed those over, and I think they are going to be very easy to use.
