Tip for swapping rubber straps.
As many will know sometimes it’s hard to remove the screw bar from a rubber strap. I find that the small 5” Vampire Tools Vampliers (clever name haha) work wonders! Or just buy a load of cheap non oem buckles hahah.

Just experienced this myself. I’ll be picking up a pair of VAMPLIERS!

Yeah, I can't be bothered to change buckles, but I don't like the idea of non-OEN buckles on OEM straps, so I actually end up focusing on non-OEM straps with sewn-in buckles since I also can't be bothered to buy an OEM buckle each time I would buy an OEM strap. ;-)

I have “a few” straps and many buckles. My policy is, one strap one buckle and one pair of tubes too.
