Replacement spring bars

Hi all,

I've tried searching the forums a few times to find this out but couldn't find much to go on. I've got a 1608 'Red' Sub. I've just ordered a new NATO strap and I'd like to get new spring bars as the ones I've got are a little old and worn. Where's the best place to get these in the UK. I don't want to end up buying bad quality ones which might fail.

As you are in London, the best place to go would be Rolex HQ in St James's Square.

I'm actually outside of London just to the West but I might make a trip in and take it for a service anyway.

The spring bars you want are the ones specifically for the holes-lug cases. the solid body is almost the 20mm of the width between the lugs, the two end spring pins are the same diameter as the hole and fit almost all the way through..

They are Rolex # 23-9291

That would be the ones on the left...
