The spring bars on the BB are super tight and difficult to remove. Being very careful is the only way to get them out since there isn't really a shoulder or a ledge to grab onto. I used a generic spring bar tool and taped the lugs with masking tape.

On a 20mm Eulit palma perlon with OEM tudor buckle and trying out newly arrived SEIKO bezel protectors (yes it may be butt-ugly and sinful for some but it fulfils a purpose to protect my diver from rough play during my holidays which start today )

Yes.

I however did not like the BB41 and I wanted to love it. Flat crystal, gloss dial. It was just all wrong. Bought a Ranger instead.

Hadn't worn my watch for a while. When I went to grab it from my case, I noticed how the hands stopped. Figured you guys would enjoy this.

On a brand new Rubber B strap (received minutes ago, 4 days UPS blazing fast delivery door to door Miami beach to Delhi). The quality is outstanding and par to its rather pricey tag. Very satisfied with the looks and fit, particularly with the OEM deployant buckle.

Never saw an OEM rubber strap the HBB? Is there such a thing? How about the end links?
