New replacement tools are now available

At NorteSpring, we know how difficult it can sometimes be to replace a watch strap without damaging the watch. That is why we have recently added new strap replacement tools
to our product catalogue.

To make it easier to replace watch straps, the watch industry has developed and refined small tools and accessories that make the process quick, simple and damage-free. A recent example is the new Quick Release straps
, which allow you to change the strap in a matter of seconds. We are already preparing an exclusive collection featuring this functionality, to be launched very soon 😊

Unfortunately, the leading watch brands do not yet offer the “Quick Release” option on the original model, which means you will always need a good replacement tool if you want to change your watch strap to give it a look more suited to the occasion.

Our replacement tools

We currently offer our customers four different models of strap replacement tools
, and an exclusive model for metal straps. Although all models have the same core features, we know that watch enthusiasts have their own preferences, which is why we’ve decided to offer a wider range to meet our customers’ needs.

So, we have everything from a more basic tool costing €2.50 – ideal for those who don’t replace their straps frequently – to a premium, high-quality and extremely durable tool costing €9.90. We also have a tool with a ruler to measure the strap size, and a gold-coloured tool, for those who also care about aesthetics (like me).

How to use our replacement tools

The replacement tools feature two hardened steel ends for added strength. One end has a fine needle tip (0.8 mm) for pushing the springs in the watch strap, and the other end has a fine fork (3 mm) used to press the spring in order to remove or attach the strap to the watch case. The image below illustrates this final step.
