Watchband release button spanner push tool

Abstract

A watchband release button spanner tool includes a central spanner body and two watch pin engagement tabs that extend from opposing sides of the spanner body. The spanner body generally comprises a substantially disc-shaped body. Each pin engagement tab includes a raised knob member that protrudes from the pin engagement tab, and each raised knob member is surmounted by a watch case release pin engagement probe configured to interact with a wristwatch case release pin in order to engage the release pin so as to permit separation of a band segment from the watch case.
