How to Install
Switching up your watch straps options can make a watch more comfortable, practical and can give you the confidence to express your personality and style.
Removing straps mounted with classic spring bars takes time and requires tools, whereas quick release spring bars don’t, allowing owners to change their straps in a few seconds. Quick release straps have spring bars with a noticeable pin to help you separate the strap from the watch’s lug unlike the normal strap with plain spring bars. This feature makes your mix and match styling super easy.
In this guide, we demonstrate how to easily change a quick release watch band, from removing the old strap to installing the new band and everything in between.
This is How you change a Quick Release watch straps :
Step 1 - Remove The Old Strap
Lay the watch face down on either a padded mat or soft cloth, ensuring there is a firm surface such as a table or bench beneath.
Pull the quick-release lever towards the middle of the watch strap, and pull the watch strap away from the lug on the side of the lever.
Slide the other end of the spring bar out of the other lug, and remove the watch strap completely.
Repeat this step with the other side of the watch until both halves of the watch strap have been removed completely.
Step 2 – Installing The New Strap
Before installing the new quick-release strap, note that the buckle end of the watch strap will be installed in the watch’s top lugs, and the long end of the watch strap will be installed in the bottom lugs.
Slide the end of the spring bar that is opposite the quick-release lever into one side of the watch’s lugs.
Pull the quick-release lever towards the middle of the watch strap while aligning the spring bar with the hole in the watch lug. Release the quick-release lever and the spring bar should lock into the watch’s lugs.
Repeat the previous steps for the other half of the watch strap so that both halves of the watch strap have been fastened securely to the watch.
The installation is now complete. Gently pull both halves of the watch strap away from the watch to ensure a secure installation.
