Wellfit Watch Pins, 1.8mm Thickness Heavy Duty Spring Bar, 4 Pack Stainless Steel Watch Band Pins, 23mm

i've bought a few 1.8mm spring bars for my IWC. bought some from a very well known brand (artem) and they actually kept popping out (pin too large) which in one case caused my watch to fall on concrete.i think these are very decent. thick - they fit well in the holes of my IWC alligator leather strap, with little room for play. they are strong and i like them.

They fit and work well.

Took apart my Braun watch (BN0021BKG) to replace the battery, and lost one of the spring bars for the strap. These were inexpensive and available for fast shipping and I am very pleased with them. The size chart was accurate for what I ordered and it fit perfectly and matches the thickness and weight of what the watch came with. They seem to be decent quality as well!

I recently purchased the Wellfit Watch Pins (1.8mm thickness, heavy) and overall, I'm pretty satisfied with the quality. These pins are sturdy, and they fit perfectly in my watch, holding the straps securely in place. I like that they have a heavier build, which gives me confidence that they’ll last longer than standard pins.

The photo on the left is my Seiko "fat boy" spring bars which are 2.5 in diameter and with 1.1mm diver tips. The one on the right is this Wellfit Watch pins which are 1.8mm in diameter and with the standard 0.8mm tip diameter. 1.5mm diameter spring bars are usually considered the standard but with NATO straps, I do recommend the larger 1.8 for more security. However, make sure the bar tips FIT your watch; too big they will come out, too loose and it might mess up the lug holes on the watch over time. The original spring bars on my watch were curved and I was worried this might not work with a NATO I bought; however, it fit seamlessly.Some reviewers stated some come missing or have small tolerance issues. I haven't seen thsoe on the four I received but these are small parts and sometimes, things happen during the machining process. but for 6 dollars for 4, these are solid quality made from stainless steel and with a solid "spring/boing" to the bars. If one snaps, I'll update the review but so far so good.

Make sure you check your watch model to find out the correct size of pin you need. I did, and this item was the perfect match to my watch. Alot cheaper than buying another watch ⌚️

Quality assurance was not evident. I only tried two of them, trying to get them in the watchband was difficult. The diameter of the pins was slightly over the listed diameter. I had to bore out the watchband to get them to fit. But it was low cost so, I got what I paid for.

Great - They worked. I have a favorite watch whose wrist-strap pin failed. I measured and ordered these. After futzing around with the pin, my watch, and a pocketknife's flat blade the deed was done. The watch is back on my wrist as I write this review. I am a happy customer.
