Also, even as expertly done as yourself, those springbars are scratching the back of the lugs with each install. A non-slipping screw leaves no marks.

I love optimism, but Panerai took a step back in my humble opinion.

For the record, I'm a big Panerai fan, but won't say springbars and snap back cases are ok.
Many thanks for sharing your opinions.
