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?
