Pins that came with the strap were too short! With some difficulty was able to use the pins from the old band. Looks great!

I have tried about 40 times to install my lovely yellow strap on my adorable Woodstock watch. I have the toolkit and I am wondering if it’s possible I am off by 1 teeny increment on the measurements? Of course I cannot find my original paperwork but I believe you must have the order at your end. If you can find it and tell me what size I ordered, I will order another yellow bad one little teeny number down. Is that possible? I would rather spend on another band from you than pay a jeweler to try and install the existing band. I have gouged myself a few times and suspect I could use a third arm to make this work, but I can also just get a penny bit smaller band. If you know how many bands I have changed without problems before – you would be amazed. I am just frustrated.

Thank you for your time and help

Worked great! Thanks for the step by step. The tool was very helpful. I got the larger one.

You need to include the step where you removed the pins which are preloaded in the strap. What a painful process that was.

In reply to Joann. Hi, I use the Bergeon Swiss screwdriver the "Red" banded which I think is 1.2mm, which usually works just fine removing spring bars and installing the spring bars back onto the watch case.

Please give tips on what other tool can be used if you don’t have the little strap tool instrument.

I have taken off and put on several straps. No 2 straps are the same and sometimes can be very difficult to take off and put on. Maybe you could make a video that shows some ways to handle these difficult straps.
