124060 and 126610 springbar mix up

Hi all,

Had a little springbar mix up between my 124060 and 126610 while the bracelets were off. Can anyone definitively confirm if the 124060 and 126610 Submariners share the same Springbars (same part #). Both look the same, but honestly there might be a small difference that I’m not able to see. Just want to make sure I use the correct ones on the correct cases when reinstalling the bracelets.

I’d appreciate it if anyone can confirm that both use the same Springbars.

Thanks in advance

Case is the same in both ref, bracelet too. I just can’t see how they could not share the same springbars.

Can get that for you tomorrow

Does anyone know where I can find Rolex spring bar part numbers? Rolex makes it really hard to look this kind of stuff up. I know they don’t openly sell parts to customers but still…. Is the AD my only resort for this?

No, your only resort () is to fit the spring bars and get on with your life.

Seriously?

Sorry, but this is overthinking in the extreme. I really hope Padi doesn’t see this….

You really think Rolex uses different spring bars, for a watch which is identical apart from one have the date and the other being time only?

Happy to be proved wrong of course, but c'mon man!

most of you are mentioning that the case is the same between the sub and sub-date. is the (slight) difference in thickness solely attributable to the case-back, then?
