Beautiful photos! As ceramic1 wrote, change to spring bars...
... those are available at Blancpain, since the OC III already has those. Blancpain quickly changed that after the difficulty owners of the MilSpec had changing straps.

Having fun with the Tribute to Mil-spec...
Hi all After recently joining the Blancpain club a few weeks ago with the Tribute to Mil-Spec I have been enjoying time with the watch. It’s a really special piece - certainly understated and versatile as a holiday watch and not something you will see all...
Congratulations on a great watch.
The size is perfect, for me at least, and it really executes the tribute well. I have not had the chance to use it in everyday life, but I agree with your statement about the 'sweet spot'. Oh, and great to see it used for its intended purpose. Well done. ...
Last shot looks like New Year fireworks! :)
Thank you for sharing your thoughts on this one. Best Blomman

Special tool to change strap
Thanks for help.. I took my mil spec to a Blancpain AD (we don’t have a Blancpain boutique here), and they need to send it to a watchmaker with the right tool. So I want to know 1. Should I buy the special tool from Blancpain? Will it make the job easier?...
