Why are there screwdrivers with my watch slate strap

Former Member over 5 years ago

Just received my 22" Slate grey watch strap for my Fenix 6 Pro.

Why are there 2 screwdrivers (T5 and T6) in the box?

There is no need for them and the strap has spring pins not screws.

I'd rather there be a link puller in the box instead. Would make more sense!

Any suggestions?

Thanks

They are needed for devices like the 945 that don't come with quick fit bands.

Thx.... So strap in wrong box perhaps?

Then I am guessing that Garmin don't provide link pin pullers? So why put the screwdrivers in the box of a product that doesn't need them? What a waste.

Does the strap have the quick fit ends? If so, you don't need the screwdrivers. But if they don't you need then to unscrew the bar to attach the strap.

Thx Jim

Yea got quick fit ends. So not a problem.

My question is more about why put drivers in a box when the product does not need them at all... It's confusing. Well... I was until I read up on it

Also drivers seem to be used when shortening a strap. Not mine because it has spring pins... More perplexing. For a spring pin strap give a puller and not a driver...

Basically I cannot adjust my strap without purchasing a service or puller... If drivers are being supplied for one type of strap, then supply a puller for the other type...
