    Does the PRS-50 have spring loaded bars?

    And do I just push in from the outside of the lugs to release the spring bars?

    Thanks!

    Btw, has your PRS-50 settled down in terms of time keeping?
    I'm running about -15 / 18 hours. =(

    Tks!

    So do you end up having to adjust it every couple of days?

    Yep, -30 is more than I'd like, but I'll wear it for a while more before I think about getting it regulated.

    If you are going to start playing with the spring bars ... work from the back and always push backwards because if the spring-pins slip, they are harder than the metal of the case and will mark the front of the lugs.

    I find the the supplied rubber strap grips the bars so tightly that it is quite possible to remove it without a tool.

    Just hold the lug end between two fingers and push it towards one of the lugs.
