Help identifying this screwdriver

I saw this screwdriver in one of the rubberB strap videos. They were using it to attach strap to EXPII 42. Boy did they make it look easy.
Anyways hoping someone can tell me the brand of the screwdriver and if it works to take screws out of Oyster bracelets.

I have used the Horofix with the 1.7mm blade.

Not badly priced at about $65 for the set of 3?

I have a $20 watch tool set I bought on amazon last year. It's been more than adequate for my $200 citizens all the way to my 116710blnr.

I've got a few bergeon screwdrivers which are the best about imo. Not that expensive and you normally get replacement heads too.

Buy cheap at your peril imo. Just not worth the potential hassle with stripped heads etc. Invest in a decent set.

FYI I've got the black and orange rubber b strap on my 226570 it's great and really suits the watch. All done thanks to the bergeon ����

I literally have just been trying to find these 'T-fit' screwdriver online and I couldn't find anything on amazon, even the bergeon ones don't have that T-fit head. I have what I think is a 1.6mm but this was too big for the 5 link style bracelet on the new tudor monochrome. So I found it on aliexpress of all places.

Looks much like a Nam Hing FM-Q set.

They also sell a so-called T sharp 1.6mm blade which is seemingly meant to be for Oyster bracelets.

Not sure how well they all work.

The set appears around 4:08 in this video:

It becomes much easier to remove bracelet screws, when a heat gun is used first to loosen the thread lock compound. A hair dryer may also work.
