tool set recommendation?

I know how to remove a link, however I dontk now how to adjust the setting on the clasp to give me a little relief and to tight it up a bit. I assume its a spring bar tool of sometype.

1) what tool set do you recommend, and can I buy it on Amazon?
2) is there any tutorial video that you know of on how to adjust the bracelet for a perfect fit (not removing links)?

Watches I need to adjust are so my wife can wear them as well. Ceramic Daytona, GMT 2 Ceramic. Thanks for your help and advice in advance! Happy New Years to All!!!!

I may be wrong, but I believe those watches have the new style bracelet with the glide lock clasp...
If that is indeed the case, you should be able to, without any tools, shrink the bracelet to a point...
Is that what you want to know how to do...???
After that, if it's still you big, you will have to remove a link...And for that I believe you will need a 1.6mm flat head screw driver...
Hope that helps...

Within the clasp (the watches above don’t have the glide lock), but I think even the ones that do, there is a spring bar pin that allows for minor adjustments that are probably 1/4 or 1/2 that of removing an entire link. I’d like to see how to make that adjustment and what tool is used for it.
