·For the record, I ordered a new spring bar about three weeks ago for my SS LE11 after my watch fell of my wrist as I undid the clasp. At the time I slide the spring bar back in to its hole, when the AD inspected it he said he will get my a new one just in case. I can get a photo of it as and when it arrives.

·I'm thinking he is asking if the springbar is black in colour?

·You're not making use of the spares which are in the springbar tool?

·Did not know about these !! Will get the box out and have a look, cheers.
specific to the Velcro strap/leather as a leather strap requires a slightly different springbar

·They question is whether you think it's the same or it's

Ah OK, so the SB's could be different for the additional "cork" strap, which looks and feels crap BTW.

··Omega Qualified WatchmakerI need an extra pair of eyes to confirm the extra set springbars (left on the picture),which are stored in the tool ,are same as the ones already installed on the bracelet (068ST2207). Took a picture but not sure as I suspect the additional set could be specific to the Velcro strap (068ST2208).
Free lengths...
2207 = 22.428 mm
2208 = 23.317 mm
You can simply measure to determine which you have.
Cheers, Al

··Omega Qualified WatchmakerTypically, Omega recommends the 2208's for watches with 20 mm lugs, and straps. However when I look up all the accessories in the box, it only mentions the 2007 bars, along with the cork strap.
Personally, I use 2208's on my own Speedmaster with straps.
