16610T spring bar size?
Want to get some new spring bars for my 16610T (no holes Sub) but I'm getting conflicting info on the spring bar size. I believe its Rolex part #23-44200? I know its 20mm wide, 2mm thick, but does anyone know the pivot (end) size? I've seen people say 0.8mm, 0.9mm or 1mm, but am unsure which one it is. Thanks!

Ends on the 23-44200 bars are 0.90mm.
Get genuine spring bars. Your AD should be able to help you. |

Do you know if Rolex makes any shoulderless bars that would fit? Would the 23-9290 work? |

I'm not near my desk right now but believe the tips on the 23-9290 are also 0.90mm. If memory serves the "290" in the part number denotes 20mm x 0.90mm.

Agreed. It could be purely coincidence. I just happened to remember that the 23-9290 number matched its dimensions. Clearly Rolex needs a better part numbering scheme.

Thanks for the info guys! I'm going to try a set of Marathon spring bars which should also be 20mm x 1.8 x 0.9. If that fails I'll see if I can get ahold of a set of 23-9290. I think they came on the older DJs, so it probably won't be easy to order.
On a related note, I came across this site while searching for more info about spring bars: https://rlxwizard.herokuapp.com/barette It has the part numbers and dimensions of a lot of the different models, which I thought was pretty cool (doesn't look like its been updated for the 6 digits yet though). |
