    Bell & Ross BR01 strap screws

    I’ve unfortunately lost one of the PVD end screws out of the strap on my Bell & Ross BR01.
    I can find replacements of the whole lot of 2 bars and 4 screws from both B&R and ‘aftermarket’ suppliers but as I only want/need 1 screw I wondered if there’s a route to source just that, anyone know what size thread they are?

    Ask nicely at a Bell & Ross AD or boutique? They must occasionally do strap changes for customers and may have screws available.

    Or much simpler, buying these https://www.watchobsession.co.uk/pro...-bar-screw-set would mean you have three other spares for the future?

    I had actually tried one local AD and got fobbed off quite quickly, and told to contact B&R direct and I can’t see how the original screws can be worth £40 more than the non-OEM ones....looks like I’m going to have some spares that you can be sure I’ll not be able to find if I ever need another.

    The nice staff in their Burlington Arcade shop sorted me out with some curved springbars a couple of weeks ago, superb service.

    I visited that store last time I was in London. Trying not buying, but they were very pleasant.

    Yes, it’s done well and they know their models (why is the bellytanker called the bellytanker...) and back catalogue.

    It certainly looks like the ying to my yang. :)
    My threaded bar is 30.6mm long and 1.8mm in diameter the Cap Head screw has a head 2.5mm in diameter and the head is 1.5mm tall and has a 1mm Allen socket.
