springbar for 16610?
i promise - i did search before asking (i'm sure it's a common question)
i need a set of replacement 20mm springbars for my 16610 sub. i went to otto frei, but there are a ton of choices. it looks like the originals are a flanged type (i'm not sure how you'd remove a springbar without a flange—what would your tool use for purchase?). but there are several to choose from. can anyone tell me which part is correct?  thanks!

I can't help you with a part number Patrick, but I'm sure Otto has the correct bars....
Personally, I'd go to an AD and pick up a set from them. As long as they have an inhouse watch-Tec, they will have spring bars at minimal cost with zero wait time!!

Older pierced (holes) oyster cases use springbars without the flanges.
Later production non-pierced (no holes) oyster cases MUST use springbars with 2 flanges. Also, the jubilee bracelet uses thinner springbars than the oyster bracelet. |
