4. Installationsanweisungen
Erforderliche Werkzeuge: A small flat-head screwdriver or a dedicated spring bar tool (not included) is recommended for safe and easy installation.
Schritte:
- Remove the old watchband: If replacing an existing band, use a spring bar tool or a small flat-head screwdriver to depress the spring bar on one side of the watch lug. Carefully pull the old band away from the watch case. Repeat this process for the other side of the watchband.
- Prepare the new watchband: Insert the spring bars (either from your old band or new ones if provided) into the small channels on the ends of the new watchband pieces.
- Attach the new watchband: Align one end of a watchband piece with the watch lug. Insert one end of the spring bar into the corresponding lug hole on the watch case. Using the tool, depress the other end of the spring bar and guide it into the opposite lug hole. Ensure the spring bar is securely seated in both holes. Gently tug on the band to confirm it is locked in place and cannot easily detach.
- Repeat for the second watchband piece: Follow step 3 to attach the remaining piece of the watchband to the other set of watch lugs.
