Leather strap change

STEP 1

TAKE OUT YOUR NEW BREITLING STRAP FROM THE BREITLING TRAVEL POUCH AND PLACE YOUR BREITLING WATCH ON A FLAT, SMOOTH SURFACE, LAYING UPSIDE DOWN SO THAT YOU SEE THE CASEBACK.

YOU MIGHT USE THE BREITLING SPRING BAR TOOL IF YOU ALSO ORDERED ONE, OR A GENERIC STRAP-CHANGING TOOL WILL ALSO WORK.

HOLD YOUR BREITLING WATCH FIRMLY AND PLACE THE FORKED END OF THE TOOL BETWEEN ONE OF THE LUGS AND THE STRAP SIDE.

PUSH THE SPRING BAR OUT OF THE LUG HOLE AND REPEAT THE OPERATION TO THE OTHER SIDE.

TIP:
CAUTIOUS HANDLING WILL AVOID FOR YOU TO SCRATCH THE INNER SIDE OF THE LUG.

INSERT THE NEW STRAP BETWEEN THE LUGS.

CHECK THE TABLE TO SEE HOW TO POSITION YOUR NEW BREITLING STRAP DEPENDING ON ITS BUCKLE.

HOLD YOUR BREITLING WATCH FIRMLY AND INSERT MANUALLY ONE PIN OF THE SPRING BAR INTO THE LUG HOLE.

TIP:
USE RELEVANT SPRING BARS FOR STRAP OR BRACELET.

STEP 4

WHILE HOLDING THE SPRING BAR IN POSITION, PUSH BACK THE SECOND PIN OF THE SPRING BAR INTO THE OPPOSITE LUG HOLE USING THE FORKED END OF THE TOOL.

ROTATE YOUR WATCH AND REPEAT THE OPERATION WITH THE SECOND PART OF YOUR BREITLING STRAP.

TIP:
CAUTIOUS HANDLING WILL AVOID FOR YOU TO SCRATCH THE INNER SIDE OF THE LUG.

STEP 5

CHECK THAT YOUR NEW STRAP IS SAFELY FIXED BY SLIGHTLY PULLING ON ITS TWO PARTS.
