Spring Bar Diameter Question

[JWR]

what is the correct diameter spring bar to fit inside a panerai deployant clasp (on the semi-circular end)?

I have had one just bend and I can't find a suitable replacement anywhere in my box of tricks...

Additionally, where might one procure said appropriately sized springbar?

i dont know the answer but europelli sell buckles, maybe they would have spares (like tubes and screws).

Is this for a 44mm PAM? If so... My guess would be that the strap tapers down to 22mm (i.e. a 24/22 strap), so the deployant would probably be 22mm as well...

yeah, i know it's 22 mm, i meant the diameter of the actual spring bar -- like, is it 1 mm, or 2 mm thick? all the ones that i have won't fit through the hole in the buckle

Ahhh... Good question. I dunno?

It's not a spring bar, it is a component of the deployant. I think you'd be hard pressed to find a replacement as it is made for that model only.

I think trusty and river both sell deployants (with rubber straps) and they won't break your bank.

It is actually a spring bar that has two small sleeves that cover it on either side of the 'post' -- i have ordered a selection of diameter bars from The Watch Prince and will report back -- I have the two side sleeves, but the actual spring bar has bent ...

I fixed one of mine that broke with a 22 x 1.5 mm spring bar from my local watch shop
