Trouble fitting Strapcode bracelet
I fitted one today to a new Seiko Turtle - it’s not the first one I’ve had, not even the first I have fitted to a Turtle, but bugger me if I could not get the springbars to sit into the lug holes....
It took me probably 30 mins and some serious levels of force and levering, some damaged tools and the risk of gashing the new watch before they would sit properly.
I could see they were ever so slightly misaligned (parts of a mm) if I put together the end link and case without springbars and sighted through it - but once you got the bars there, they do not give at all, and it was a ‘mare to get them in without wrecking anything.
Anyone had probs with Strapcode tolerances before?

A fine thread - bugger, that’s excellent problem solving! And is way better then going full Norman Bates-style at it with my burgeon!!!
Almost want to remove it and try that. Ended up with one original fat Seiko springbar, and one that came with the Strapcode, as the “nub” was thinner on the Strapcode
