I was wondering if the spring bars from the Pro II bracelet would fit the strap or would I need to get different spring bars? Also does anyone know where to get a spring bar tool in Phoenix, AZ?

Well yes, they will fit, but........

strap spring bars are larger diameter than bracelet ones and you should use the right ones for a tight fit - especially as your AD will likely give them to you.

I bought my springbar tool (Bergeon 6767F) online from www.watchtool.co.uk.

My AD gave me different spring bars when I went from the Diver Pro to a croc strap for my Skyland....
He said its just better

The thinner diameter bracelet spring bars will also start to cut into a strap over time far quicker than the proper strap spring bars. It definitely pays to use to the correct ones.
