Odd-sized spring bars

Post by germy_wermy » 05 Apr 2015 22:41

Hi all SCS bros.

I am looking for 23mm spring bars for my Orient M-force so I'm wondering if Bencoolen sells them, since Orients are sold there.

If not, anyone knows where to get weird sized spring bars such as 23mm or 21mm?

In a worst case scenario, would it be better to try to squeeze in 24mm, or use 22mm?

Thanks in advance!

P.S. Why can't there be standardization?!?! Hahaha

Definitely cannot squeeze other size. I get mine from taikonaut or strapcode. They have every size.

Measure the end pin tip diameter.
If its around 1.1 - 1.2mm, probably can use the Seiko ones.

Otherwise for safety sake, go BigTime go buy an original one.
