Do any of you guys use spring bars instead of the screw in lug bars? If so how is the fit on the case?

Spring bars

They work, fit, and look great. I've had a couple dozen PAMs over the years and the ones I used then on I preferred over screw in or the quick release.
Thats awesome! It's annoying having to unscrew the strap everytime you want to change and i always manage to slip on to the case eventually so i wanted to give the spring bars a chance but was worried about the quality. Any recommendations on which ones to get?
either these or from panatime, ive had cheaper ones and the don't fit to the end as the pins are slightly too large - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Custom-M...hash=item59166e5437:m:m4dPE-LDWIfqKHzYiBnNPyg - these fit perfectly
I get mine from here: https://panatime.com/accessories/spring-bars-and-other-small-parts/spring-bars/
I guess it depends where you are. Those are even slightly more expensive than the ones from panatime. But if you're in the UK, then shipping would be faster coming from the ebay link.

Side note the ends are different sizes for the different size holes in the case. Large screw head looking end goes on the side of the crown guard if you do it the other way they can come out as they do not seat correctly

Although I don't have any springbars currently, I imagine it would be impossible to fit the screw head portion of the screw bar into the threaded hole. On a side note, does anyone make springbars that would fit the QR equipped PAMs? Like proper, with no slots on either end.
I picked up a watch M2M once that he used some fat spring bars or something like that (he told me but have forgotten) and ground the lip of the flanges. Looked slick and like a dumb ass I accidentally sold them with the watch. I've always wanted to duplicate it.
