Did you get the tweezers like Bergeon spring bar tool ? If so, what is the damage and where did you get it ?
I find it troublesome to go down to the RSC just to put on or remove the strap.
Originally posted by kenn18 View PostNo.. the original spring bars. Truth is, I took the Explorer 2 to RSC and asked them to remove the SS bracelet for me, and leave the spring bars attached. I have the Bergeon spring bar tool that can do the job DIY, but that would risk scratching the caseback. They did it for me in less than 10 minutes, FOC. Even gave a good wipe on the watch head and bracelet before returning them to me, nicely wrapped in a Rolex cleaning cloth, also FOC. Legendary service. Not a good idea to use non-original spring bars, unless you know what you are doing!
The 22mm Nato fits securely on the 21mm lug-width, I have also used a 20mm Nato, no problem.
This photo shows the Explorer 2 on 20mm Nato, night shot.

Maybe Rolex should start making official rubber straps for the Sports Model, like some of the PAMs which has interchangable straps. I bet they will sell like hot cakes. I definitely be the first few to buy.

That helps a lot.
I'll probably invest in one of those double forked tweezer type spring bar tools as I would like to wear the bracelet quite often too.
Also decided to have a strap maker custom make a few leather NATOs for me in the right size.
Thanks again!

I have a DeepSea, and I am using it with Rubber B
The lug line is much smoother now, and feels more integrated.
With the inserts/material, the heavy watch head is supported well, and does not shift around much as compared to on bracelet.
Yes the weight is significantly less (and sometimes I do miss the weight), but the comfort level greatly improves.
now I want to see how long it can last
