Any hacks to easily convert straps to quick release ?
Hey everyone! I'm looking to convert my regular watch straps into quick release ones. Has anyone found a simple and effective way to do this at home? I’ve watched some videos and they actually didn’t help that much. Any tips or methods would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

I don't think there's an obvious shortcut other than buying a tool to make a clean cut. Here's my recent post after I converted all of my straps.

I've done it with an X-acto knife. As long as you know how to insert the quick-release spring bar (the Barton page explains it) and don't mind the risk, it can be done.
