5 digit i.e. 18038, 18238 or early series 118238 have the red gold blade clasp. These you should not bend the "blade" as suggested above which is useless on this type but use two tools to open the notch.

Rolex even has their own tools for this but I forgot the type number.
Might try two pliers with the jaws taped up. Better buy the tools.
Don't overdo it. If you break it ...
Lots of watchmakers don't know the existence of these.
On newer models you can do as described earlier. |
Yes that’s the model and clasp I have. So that tool will widen those two oval posts that lock into the hole?
