He has 15 years’ experience in the jewelry and watch industry, including nine years as a certified watchmaker. Fall 2015 57 Retail Link Raising the Bar Spring bars: The crucial connection between watch and strap By Jordan Ficklin, CW21 Spring bars are those springy metal rods that connect a watch bracelet or strap to the case. Relatively simple and inexpensive—costs vary from a few cents to about $75 for an 18k bar—they nonetheless are essential: Good quality spring bars keep the watch from falling off the customer’s wrist. Using the wrong ones may cause the watch strap to disconnect, force the bars to break prematurely, or make it impossible for the next repair person to remove them without damaging the watch case. Consequently, it’s important to choose the right spring bar for the job, beginning with the correct diameter and length. Always use the largest possible diameter that will work with the strap or bracelet. Common sizes are 1.3 mm, 1.5 mm, and 1.8 mm, although spring bars for Rolex and other high end brands are sometimes as big as 2 mm. To determine the needed length, measure the space between the watch-case lugs with a digital caliper, micrometer, or similar device. A spring bar that is labeled as 15 mm should fit lugs with 15 mm between them. (The spring bar may be much larger when expanded, but when fully compressed it will be slightly smaller than the labeled size.) In addition to the correct length and diameter, you need to choose the correct type of spring bar. As shown here, there are several from which to choose. Shouldered: For use with lugs whose holes penetrate all the way through. These types of spring bars have no flange: To remove them, you push on the tip of the bar through the open hole. deeper and provide more support, although the blind hole is more visually appealing. (Note: Shouldered spring bars shouldn’t be used with blind holes, since there is no way to grip the shaft of the Double flanged: For use only with lugs in which the holes bar and compress the spring.) do not penetrate to the outside of the watch case (blind holes). The second flange allows you to better grip the bar, so it can be more easily removed. 58 Fall 2015 continued on page 57 ©istockphoto.com/JuergenBosse.
