Best Spring Bar Adjustment Tool for Rolex GMT

I just picked up some new tools to replace my 25 year old worn stuff. One thing I forgot to get is a spring bar adjustment tool that I can use on a modern Rolex GMT. Who makes the best on these days? Any help would be appreciated.

If you are referring to a tool to remove the spring bars I have heard very good reviews on the Bergeon spring bar tweezers, they are supposedly made to good tolerances and allow you to depress both sides of the bar at the same time and reduce or eliminate scratches

https://www.esslinger.com/horofix-spring-bar-tweezers/

https://www.esslinger.com/bergeon-78...-bar-tweezers/

The first one is a copy of the more expensive Bergeon ones, I have not used either one but have seen reviews on both and I believe a few members here have the Bergeon ones and say they are top quality, the Horofix ones are not Swiss made but come with an extra set of tips and if don’t change bracelets a lot they may be worth a shot but as I’ve said I have not used either set.

Otto Frei offers cheaper prices for the same thing and great service.

Would the Bergeon 7825 work on the 116710BLNR, 116610LV, and Explorer II? I’d like to buy one, but would hope it will work for all three.
