Is the Bergeon 6825-PF spring bar tool that much better?
I've recently been considering the purchase of a Bergeon 6825-PF spring bar tool. It's on sale right now at Otto Frei for $30 off the regular price.
See it here... http://www.ofrei.com/page252.html I was hoping that those of you who have one may be able tell me whether it's that much easier to use than my Bergeon 6767-F or, should I just save my money? |

Save your money and just work one side at a time. I have several Bergeon tools but now just use an old screwdriver.

Thanks guys.
As I said in my OP, I already have a Bergeon 6767F spring bar tool. I'd like to hear from those of you who have a 6825-PF. How well does the more expensive one work? |

I obviously work on watches all day everyday, and I only use the 6767-F. It works on everything, and is a breeze to use.
