Is there a tool you can buy to make the micro adjustment on the inside of the GMT and Daytona clasp? I don't want to keep going back to the AD to see if I want to make slight changes. the extra half link is a little to much, want to try going from the middle hole to outside hole. If there is a common household tool that would be great, but I am willing to invest in the tool that won't scratch my collection. Thanks

A fine Bergeon springbar tool works for me. Otherwise a paper clip works in a pinch.

Toothpick works well on my sub's clasp

I've used anything from a small paper clip to a small pin to adjust the micro-adjustment on my DateJusts....

I would recommend a dedicated tool that is right for the job, though.

If you're concerned about scratching the clasp, a toothpick is great for moving the spring bars.
