Spring bars quick release 1.5mm
€14,00
Set of two Swiss Standard hardened steel quick release spring bars. Pin diameter: 1.5mm. The difference lies in the flange with the integrated lever: the strap can be removed without a fork tool — simply pull the small lever with a fingernail or a thin awl. Designed for those who change straps often, even several times a day.
They are a compromise. They hold well under normal use, but the movable flange adds an extra stress point compared to the smooth pin. For heavy sports watches, NATO straps on a large wrist, or demanding use, the traditional pin is preferable. For casual straps changed frequently, quick release is the right way.
I keep them in my drawer for clients who rotate five different straps on the same watch.

The joy of little things
Changing your strap should be as simple as changing your shoes. With us, it is.
Every strap has integrated quick-release spring bars: swap it in one gesture, no tools, no risk of scratching the lugs. The same watch shifts mood with the moment.
Domande Frequenti
Is the 1.5mm quick release compatible with my watch?
It depends on your lug width. These are universal for any distance between lugs, but the 1.5mm pin must fit into the existing holes in your watch. If your watch holes are already drilled for standard 1.5mm pins, they work fine. If the holes are wider or narrower, they don’t fit. Check the hole diameter before ordering.
How well do they hold compared to a traditional smooth pin?
They hold well under normal use, but the movable flange with lever adds a mechanical stress point. On heavy watches, NATO straps worn tight, or rough strap changes, the traditional pin is more reliable. Quick release is the compromise between convenience and durability: choose it if you change straps often, not if you use it under stress.
Can I use them with my leather or rubber straps?
Yes, they work with any strap material. The important thing is that the strap has holes drilled for the 1.5mm pin. If the strap has larger or misaligned holes, the pin won’t hold well and slips. Check that the holes are precise before installing them.
How do I install the quick release? Can I damage anything?
Insert the pin from under the lug, push it all the way in. The lever engages automatically when the pin is in place. To remove, pull the small lever with a fingernail or thin tool and the pin slides out easily. You won’t risk damaging anything if the holes are the correct size: the stress point is on the lever, not the watch.
