Strap tool

Hey guys, I'm looking to change the bracelet on a breitling. Would this tool do that? I know it's just the tip and not the actual bar. I have a spring bar pusher already. Just need a smaller for for th breitlings. Any help is appreciated. http://www.amazon.com/Bergeon-6767-AF-Replacement-6767-F-Spring/dp/B00PGR73ZM/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1422482561&sr=8-1-fkmr0&keywords=bergeron+6767f

I suppose you could grab it with a pair of pliers ghetto style. I use a gen Bergeon 6767 but I think there are cheaper knock offs that will accept that tip as well. Just get one of those instead. Its fraught with peril if you just get the tip.

Like my dad always said, "use the right tool for the job. Don't shortcut."

. I can't find any third party ones with that tip. Know of any?

I sometimes use a dental pick on bracelets with tight confines. Even a push pin has been able to remove spring bars in a pinch. Just grab the shoulder of the spring bar and pull it away from the lug hole (carefully).

I bought one of offshores tool kits here on the forum when I first joined and the spring bar tool that came with the kit takes bergeon 6111 replacement pins which do not have threads and are two sided.  http://www.amazon.com/Bergeon-6111D-Replacement-Pins-Spring/dp/B00PGUV4JU/ref=pd_sim_a_2?ie=UTF8&refRID=0P65058EAT40B9MGD153 works great easy to flip from small to large or v blade to pin.

Unless this is the last strap or bracelet you plan to change, I would get the one from Ofrei. These are nice high quality tools and the ends are interchangeable, so if you break a tip or fork, they can be replaced.
