Thread: Time Factors Straps/Springbars

    Time Factors Straps/Springbars

    Quick question,

    Does anyone know if Eddie supplies springbars with his straps? Thinking of buying the Time Factors canvas strap and/or a NATO and just wondering if they come with springbars?

    Ordered a leather strap a while ago for a different watch and seem to think it might have come with some but unsure and don't want to get some nice new straps and not be able to put them on straight away :wink:

    If they don't, what's the best place to get some from online?

    Thanks,

    Paul.

    iirc the retro rubber i bought from the eddster came with springbars, but other straps such as the aviator didnt. i get most of my springbars from here, never been dissapointed by the quality, they do the thick ones too which are perfect for habitual nato-wear http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/20mm-Quality-Spri ... 19b5e5c74d
    Good luck everybody. Have a good one.

    I think all of the canvas ones I've bought from Eddie have come with springbars, but maybe not the NATOs.

    I bought a Hirsch strap from Eddie and it came with very good quality spring bars. I'm pretty certain that Hirsch don't supply spring bars with straps, so they must have been provided by Eddie.

    All the leather straps I've bought from Eddie (and I've bought several) were supplied with spring bars.

    All the straps I have bought from Eddie came with springbars (retro rubber, canvas, rally and carbon) but the Nato's don't :D .
    They always seem to be good quality ones too.

    I supply springbars with all straps that have the holes to take them, I don't supply with NATO or Rhino. I gave away more than £700 worth of springbars last year.

    If you checked under my desk, work table and various other places in my den one might find what amounts to that many that I have lost. :x

    Magnets are great for finding lost bits of metal.

    Cover the end with some tights, it makes find larger pieces much easer and you don't have to sort through lots of fluff
