Couple of SM300P questions

I recently acquired a 2551.80 and have a couple of questions. 1. I'm looking for a watch tool kit that will enable me to adjust the length of the bracelet, and to take it off completely and put a strap on it, if I ever go that route. It's my understanding that those little bushing thingies can be tricky, so I want the kit to have what I need to deal with those. 2. In the description of the 2551.80, it's always described as having a blue dial and a blue bezel, but in all the pics I see, as well as the one I have, the dial is black, just as it was on my 2062.50 that I lost. Is it really black, or is it so dark a blue that I just can't see the blue?
Thanks for any/all responses.
Tony

Yeah, that's about right. I think that movement number is around 2006/07. That looks like it might have darkened up over time - take it out in direct sunlight and see if the deep navy blue is coming through. Agree with Archer, looks fine.

Thanks for the replies, guys. I actually like the fact thst the dial is very close to (if not actually) black. I think the blue of the bezel adds just enough color.
This watch replaces the black/black mid-size quartz model I had, which had the sword hands (2062.50). I like the look of the skeleton hands better, but I've found that they don't hold the glow as long, nor are they as bright as on my previous watch. Makes it kinda difficult to see in the dark at times. But Iove my new (to me) watch!
