Try 1.3mm or grind off at the sides of your 1.6

Yes, they are smaller. You need this exact screw driver for both Oyster and Jubilee as it has both size bits. It is a must if you don’t want to bugger up the screws on the Jubilee. It is what I use.
Don’t try to use a Burgeon chisel flathead bit of 1.3mm. It will fit but it’s too thin and rounds off the inner jubilee pin. A flat wide/square 1.3mm is the proper fit. It’s a specialized tool but will make your life incredibly less complicated.
