Need help with VSF Pam 616 Springbar

Hi all,

I need help to remove the spring bar from my VSF Pam 616.

As u all know, the VSF Pam 616 has spring bars which can only be removed from the inside. The holes on the outer part of the lugs are faux. U cannot push the spring bars out from the outside.

While changing to this python strap, I forgot to remove the metal tubes in the strap.

Now the tubes are blocking the access to the spring bars. I have no space or any leverage to remove the spring bar from the lugs.

Would appreciate any suggestions other than to cut the tubes and spring bar.

Even if I were to cut them, any suggestions on how to avoid either damaging the watch lugs or the strap?

Thank you very much.

What tools did you use/process to actually get the original band off? I can't seem to find any info online to help me with this process

Kind regards

push the middle until it bends a slight bit to get the tool so the spring retracts or you may need to bend it all the way unfortunally
