116600 SDc spring bars

[Tony]

Can anyone help me locate a pair of spring bars to purchase please? I can't even locate these on Cousins.

[sickie]

You could try these. From the USA but look correct & the first link say they are for 116600.

Ask your local AD to get some in. At least you know they’ll fit 100% and you won’t watch £10K’s worth of watch tumbling to the floor!

Have you tried Rolex?

[Tony]

Thanks for everyone's input.

It seems that this is as difficult as I thought it was.

The ebay ones aren't the same as my photo, and the models listed aren't interchangeable.

I've tried a couplel of ADs but the shop assistants were a waste of time.

100% call RSC st james.
They are very good and comletetive prices compaers to ebay and cousins.
I recently bought some gold screws from cousins and thay didnt fit!

Called rolex and they are actually cheaper than cousins and the steel screws are free of charge so i learnt the hard way.

Only thing is you have to go in to the centre once they are open again with the watch/bracelet as they dont post them

Thanks, but travelling several hundred miles for a spring bar is a non-starter.

Ahh thats a hiccup... 😬
Anyone you know goes into london who could take it in?
Can an AD ask on your behalf? If they can get them sent to the AD?

I bought springbars for Explorer II 800km from my home :) OK, I was on vacation trip and that was small detour.

You should ask Rolex repairers if you have any nearby.

They're available from Everest : https://www.everestbands.com/product...mm-spring-bars

Also I believe Toxic Natos sell them : https://www.utewatchco.com/collectio...nt=17224523777

Everest: they're completely the wrong spring bars.

UTE: sold out.

Call Rolex and ask which AD near you has a parts account. WoS have a few, should be one not too far.

[learningtofly]

Goldsmiths?

[walkerwek1958]

Daft question but I’ll ask it: what’s wrong with the ones you’re replacing?

[GOAT]

I bought some for mine from Rolex
Came as a pack of 5 I seem to remember!
If I have any spares I’ll let you know
🐐

[Tony]

Thanks. A few quid to the fundraiser would be in order of you could do that. One would do the trick.

Not urgent. They're both installed in the watch at the moment but one of them sticks. I can manage to get it out but it's a pain to get back in, and one of these days it will fail. It's one of those things that's not a problem until it's a problem.

If GOAT doesn't have any I can send you a pair.

[GOAT]

Just looked but no joy. I’m sorry....
Next man on the list sounds like he can help

Thanks anyway.

I guess the problems obtaining the area a reflection of the relatively short production run.

Why don't you call Rolex directly and ask who near you has a parts account?
