Strap change tool

Recommended Posts

I saw a DIY strap changing tool somewhere but can’t remember what it looked like. 
AP makes one but I think it’s $100 or so.

I just used these pliers with a driver bit, in a pinch, and can not believe how easy it makes this now.

Kicking myself for not trying this years ago.

I may have to make a better more permanent thing, but in the mean time this worked great.

I use the one from AP Bands for $90.   But yeah, the vice grip pliers/bit works too

how do you ensure you don't scratch?

I had one AP which I moved on, but I remember trying to change the strap. Not a great memory. Had a real bloody struggle with a Cartier Santos too. Give me spring bars any day!
