Swapping bracelet spring bars with quick release.
Just curious if anyone has done this and if it's a straight forward swap? Most of my bracelets don't have quick release spring bars, so I'd like to slowly swap them out.

Depends on the bracelet design. Most bracelets have a very tiny slot on either side to fit a spring bar tool. Getting in a quick release spring bar into that slot is mostly impossible considering the knob for the spring mechanism is far from the shoulder and will interfere with the bracelet. Some bracelets may have a bigger slot which can make it possible.
I haven’t seen this stock. However, a machine shop could mill a slot that would allow the quick release knob to slide as it must.
You'd need to drill and machine a tiny slot in the bracelet end links,very difficult.
