@MisPinksunrise Hi, the original box for the BR should have come with 2 small allen wrenches that will allow you to change the strap. I am not sure of the mm size (number) off the top of my head but if you have an authorized dealer near you they should be able to order a set for you. Thanks and good luck.

Will this work for the mdv106 Casio? Bought a nato but it has the rubber strap on.. I could get the original stainless steel strap off to put the rubber on but the rubber makes it almost impossible to get off.

I have a watch I got for 30 dollars with a pleather strap and I want to put a metal strap on is it possible? and how to do that because the watch does not have holes on the outside... it is a solid piece of metal...

Can any jeweler or watchmaker dill through the lug holes of my watch? How much would this cost? Thanks in advance

Leopoldo Castañeda Hi, just curious but why would you want the holes drilled? Usually watches that don’t have access from the outside of the lugs use spring bars where holes are not needed from the outside.

TheStrapSmith Thanks for replying. The watch I wear the most is my seiko skx and I change straps and the bracelet often but it’s a pain in the $&@ to remove the thick seiko spring bars .

@TheStrapSmith I have a 50s Glycine with male lugs. I have bought replacement female spring bars, but I cannot see a way of getting a new leather strap onto the male lugs! Any help would be appreciated!

On my watch the holes in the lugs don't go all the way through....
