For my EXP I ordered a NATO strap to switch out on occasion. How difficult is it to remove the Rolex bracelet and do I need a special tool?

Thanks
Russell

If you have lug holes, use a wooden toothpick. If not, there's a tool that fits the groves on the ends of the springbars.

I'm sure someone will come along with info.

Welcome to The Nylon Nation and can't wait to see the pics.

Eventually I guess I will have to join the crowd and buy some Nato bands but right now I still enjoy the SS bracelet. But you all can turn me without much prodding!!!

Thanks for the tips on the tools. I'm going to get a NATO strap for my big arse Seiko!

Not hard to remove the bracelet as long as you have the proper tools. I have a brief tutorial at http://www.minus4plus6.com/maintenance.htm#removal
