[Drell]

Hello, i have a SCG sea dweller blaken and i need to find a fliplock bar/sprint. Can anybody help me find what i need, i have tried to search for it everywhere.

Many thanks.

Pictures of the clasp would help to provide you the correct information.

It´s the big hole there on the clasp

Search for 17mm flip lock clasp spring bars for 126660 model watches. That's what you're looking for. The thing is, I'm not sure if there's a sheath that goes around the bar itself or if the spring bar itself is coverend in the DLC coating for the Blaken models.

I know that the spring bar will be the 17mm though.

Thank you, will check it out. But the clasp width is 18mm, are u sure it´s 17mm?

That 18mm measurement is the width when measured to the outside surface of the clasp, the inside of the clasp is 17mm (where the springbar holes are located.)

Ok, sorry im pretty new to this

My blue line is 17mm but the red line is 19mm

But I'll probably have to press the fliplock together a bit, see that it's not completely straight, so then your measurements are correct

Still cant find out exactly what spring bar i need…

I’m curious as to how exactly this is measured as well…perhaps one of the OG’s will chime in and let us know, bc this is a perfectly valid question!!!

Yeah it is, and i wonder if there is some site where people can buy spare parts for replicas? Would be cool.

Just search for a 17mm springbar. I would also get a 16mm in case there is some variance in how they are measured. For example a 20mm springbar is not 20mm, it's longer so the tips can extend into lug detents or holes. Your fliplock detents might be less deep by comparison and a compressed 17mm bar may not fit.

I ordered it, both 16mm and 17mm. Diameter 1,5mm, i hope it´s not 1,78 in diameter because they had that too, but i think 1,5mm is the right measure.

 

[KJ2020]

The holes in your clasp are quite large, they look like they could handle 2.0mm diameter bars. Bigger is better as there would be less play when the fliplock is loose.

Measurements from two of mine

 

[Drell]

They look bigger on the pictures, but if 1,5mm is too small i will order the 1,78mm. 2,0mm is going to be too big.
