A question for the wise.... will this item allow me to remove a combination of bracelets? I currently have Rolex, Tudor, Tag and Omega.

Or do I need to buy this specific Rolex indicated tool?

I see the pin sizes are different 1.1mm versus 1.08mm in the Rolex specific, is the tolerance that tight that I should order the Rolex specific? Or will the first item give me flexibility? Frustratingly I don’t see to be able to find somewhere I can buy additional pins for the first tool.

Thanks in advance for any help.

I was going to buy the first one (or something similar), but you have to double check to make sure you get the right size tips. the newer Rolex watches have smaller size spring pins which most of those tips don't fit properly (too big). So I ended up buying a Bergeon 7825

I can see that the 7825 is a solution for the Rolex bracelets. Struggling to find one shipping to Spain....... also would prefer something more flexible that I can use for multiple brands.

thanks for sharing your experience.

The "Swiss Quality" tools are probably Chinese knock offs of the Bergeon 7825, and they come with two sizes of tips. They get the job done, but practice on several other watches first, as you will make errors and scratch the lugs while learning.
