I recently had my Seamaster 300 ceramic serviced by the Swatch group. When I got it back, I noticed that one of the spring bars wasn’t properly in place. I have not been able to get it properly in place. It seems like the spring bar will not line up with the hole because of the end link, which is odd since I don’t recall having this issue before. Anyone had any similar issues? Any suggestions? I have tried different spring bars.

Well now that the OP’s post appears in full, my reply may possibly appear without context 😬 I think that @JimInOz and I are happy enough with this outcome 🍿

Have they installed the bracelet in the correct orientation, i.e.: when wearing, look at the clasp on the inside of your wrist, the Ω should be normal, not upside down.

If the problem is not obvious, I'd send it back. Playing around with spring bars on a ceramic case can be risky due to the possibility of the ceramic chipping.

Lol I couldn’t figure out what you two were going on about when I saw it originally with just the 3 posts, and obviously after the OP had edited. Now I’m just trying to figure out where his original post ended and you picked it up. 😁 I’m guessing after “when I got back…”

Even better!

Sorry OP, not trying to derail the thread.
Pictures of the issue would help.
(Spring bar is too long/wrong?)
