Handcrafted Straps
Spring bars Rolex Submariner 16613 — 20mm
Set of two spring bars for Submariner Date reference 16613, in hardened Swiss Standard steel.
Size: 20mm between the lugs. Pin diameter: 1.5mm. Compatible with all variants of the 16613 — two-tone steel and gold, production period 1988–2009.
Spring bars are the smallest part of the watch, but if they are wrong the strap shifts. For the 16613 this size always works. When I fit a new strap, I replace the spring bars as well. It is standard practice: the pin works every day, sooner or later it gives in.
The same ones I fit in the atelier on the straps I stitch for clients.

Frequently asked questions
What size are these spring bars?
20mm between the lugs, 1.5mm pin diameter. This size is always correct for the Submariner 16613.
Do they fit all versions of the 16613?
Yes. They cover all variants of the reference, steel and steel-gold, from 1988 to 2009.
Why change the spring bars if the strap seems fine?
The pin works every day and wears out. Whenever I fit a new strap, I always replace the spring bars as well. It's standard practice, even at the Casati Milano atelier.
What material is it?
Hardened Swiss Standard steel. These are the same ones I fit on the straps I make for customers.
Why not reuse the original spring bars?
They're the smallest part of the watch, but if they're wrong or worn, the strap will wobble. It's better to start with a new pin.
