Finally got my Bracelet back on. I took it off for a good cleaning and was really having a time getting it back on. Was afraid of damaging stuff so I purchased a Bergeon 6825. Even then, It kind of felt like the Bergeon did not want to let me clamp the spring bar. The channels in the bracelet were very snug. It finally squeezed in after a few tries. Now my baby is back on. and I have a Bergeon for future cleanings

Looks good!

I have found the 6825 to be so much more difficult to use than just taping the lugs and pressing both sides in with the wide end of the 6111. Perhaps give that a try next time. Watch looks great by the way.

I, too, have the Bergeon and gave up trying to put the bracelet back on my GMT. After a few scratches I thought 'screw it' and I'm sticking with a NATO. Kind of a shame since I would really like the option of having a metal bracelet.
