I just put an hirsch 20mm leather strap on my speedmaster. Would you trust the springbars it comes with ?

Not really a fan of quick release springbars, you could check with your AD/OB for OEM with art.no. 068ST2208, should cost you no more than $£€4 each.

Never had a problem with quick release bars on the watches that had them. You'll be alright.

I emailed Hirsch . They suggested using the Omega Originals “for a better fit”

I have tried many aftermarket straps, especially ones with the quick release spring bars.

What I have noticed is that the aftermarket spring bars are about 0.1-0.2mm thinner at the head than Omega's. You can try it out, the spring bar would wiggle slightly after you install it.

The question is how do you remove the bars without destroying them.
