Post subject:  New Chrono Cockpit Strap help

Hi all

I have just purchased a new chrono cockpit with MOP dial on a bracelet.
I have now got a lovley croco strap to fit to it, I have a tool to remove the bracelet but have not fitted the croco strap as yet.

I am worried that there is no room to get in with the strap fitted to release the spring bar.

Is there a way of doing this or another tool for the job?

Also do I need different spring bars for the Strap?

Thanks for all your help.

Simon

You want a Bergeon 6767F and yes, you should use thicker springbars for strap vs. bracelet.

Thanks for that.

I have the Bergeon 6767F tool to remove the bracelet, however I cannot see how this would be any good to remove the strap as there is no room to get the tool in, without damaging the strap or case?

Leather gives - just press the tip between the strap and the case and compress the springbar the same way as the bracelet.
