Although not spring bars I just got the pin and screw that fits the same place as a spring bar on the Montbrillant Legende and it cost £35 for one so in comparison the spring bars are dirt cheap
That was from an AD

I was taking my watch off the other night and noticed that when I moved one strap up and down I could hear a noise coming from what sounded like inside of one of the springbars - a sound like something was loose and grinding a bit (though am not concerned as it has nothing to do with the aesthetics) Has anyone ever had this issue before? This strap/bars have been on since I've owned the watch - perhaps it's time to get them replaced. |

Thanks Roff - it's probabaly been said a million times but do you have a suggestion as to where to purchase - from Breitling or third party |

I wouldn't go cheap on a spring bar - 'high end' is going to cost a couple of bucks - why go cheap and risk it. |

So as a follow up to this - I stopped by an AD and the lady who worked in the part department wasn't sure exactly which springbars were the correct size. She gave me a 22mm lug size "Medium". Can anyone tell me if this is the correct size for a Navi 01 strap? |

If it fits snugly in the strap then medium is correct, if it's loose then you'll need large diameter. 22mm is right. |
