slai Posted February 23, 2007 Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 Alright, dumb newbie question - I had no problems removing a bracelet with a springbar tool but before I pop the leather strap on, how do I go about removing the springbars when the strap is on? There's no hole in the strap like there is for the bracelet. What am I missing here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi, you just use the spring bar tool to push the strap a little bit to the side and push the tool onto the spring bar. Straps are not that stif. Good luck.

slai Posted February 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 Perfect, it worked. Note to self: springbar tools hurt when jammed into flesh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slai Posted February 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2007 After stabbing my finger with it, I knocked it off my desk and it landed straight into my foot fork down. The watchgods are not happy with me today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
