I know that guy for years Uhrmacherei – Die Uhrmacherei in der Goldschmiedgasse - https://uhrmacherei.at/ and as I have to bring in my wife's Air King for a revision and dial change this shouldn't be a problem.Let's hope you don't see any bubbles escaping!
Outside of a few major cities in here in the U.S., I wouldn't know where to have that done. The only watches I ever had pressure tested were my Rolexes at Rolex when I worked in Manhattan. I would guess that good watchmakers are more easily found in Europe--especially in proximity to Switzerland.
Very elegant, with a lovely selection of timepieces. I gather your wife is getting the salmon pink dial.I know that guy for years Uhrmacherei – Die Uhrmacherei in der Goldschmiedgasse - https://uhrmacherei.at/ and as I have to bring in my wife's Air King for a revision and dial change this shouldn't be a problem.

Yes, she bought it with the salmon dial and I got her the blue sunburst 4 years ago. Now it’s time to change it back.Very elegant, with a lovely selection of timepieces. I gather your wife is getting the salmon pink dial.

There are curved end straps as well as curved springbars around if this might help…My Citizen Promaster Diver. The OEM 23mm rubber strap on this watch is oddly shaped in an oval where it meets the watch. I tried to switch to my CNS Marlon Band-O to fit, but, my patience wore out after multiple failed attempts. The spring bar would not seat. I used the Bergen tool and spring bar pliers, and, no dice. The weird shape of the strap makes it line up and snap into place easily. So be it. The OEM strap is not bad.View attachment 1503746
That may help. Thanks. I will see what I can find.There are curved end straps as well as curved springbars around if this might help…
The spring bar is straight, but, the case and strap are curved. A curved straight bar might work for a NATO. You can’t fit one through with the OEM bar. No room.
This was a pretty significant complaint with this model. I guess it is just a quirk.
