Which is the appropriate screwdriver to tighten the links ?
APPROPRIATE SCREWDRIVER FOR THE LINKS
It is not a trivial question because it often happens that the screws are easily damaged if you do not have the appropriate screwdriver. Are there some indicated screwdriver to adjust the links ? or not ? I appreciate your valuable comments friends |

The Rolex 2100 tool, shown pictured, is by far the best I've used on an oyster bracelet.
They are hard to come by, so if you can't get one, look for a 1.6mm hollow ground. Good luck! |

I believe the Rolex 2100 is 1.7mm in size which is almost impossible for get from any of the vendors. There is a 1.7mm hollow ground selling on EBay right now. Not sure how good it is.
More importantly, be sure to break the loctite seal with heat before attempting to remove the screw.
