Can anyone please tell me which Bergeon tool is appropriate for spring bar changing / strap changing for a Seamaster 2254 & a Moonwatch Pro? Many Thanks, J
I owned both Bergeon 6825 and 7825. Personally I feel the 7825 is of a much better grip, tighter and better handling.
No problem. These tools might be a little pricey but in my opinion worth the investment and handle the watch with ease. Protecting the precious watches from scratches in a Long run, especially changing of steel bracelets from time to time.

I use the fine 6767 tip for bracelets and the 6111 spatula tip (don't recall the exact part number) for straps.
Provided that does not result in the spring bar flying across the room into oblivion, then you sir are a genius (or at least the guy in the video is, but even then you still get partial genius credit).
You don’t have to pull as hard as the goose in the video. Been doing it before he was born. Most of the time the spring bar is still attached to the braid/floss
