Hello all - I'm the happy owner of a 2016 JLC QP, and my wife owns a lovely Reverso - both of which employ JLC's quick release deployant clasp system. While we love both watches, I struggle constantly with one particular aspect of the JLC quick release de...  

The manual spring bar release between the lugs is great and easy, but it takes me 30 mins to get this one silly connection together after it comes apart. I'm fairly sure there's an angle or position it is supposed to sit in so that it comes together easil... 

But I don’t want to run the risk to see it come apart... So I will put the buckle. Thanks for your post!

I did I quick video of mine showing how it is done. To release it you press “push here” and you should be able to slide out the spring bar from the top easily. To reattach, you just do the opposite. You slide the spring bar back into place. Once it is in ...

What it looks like before you do anything. Push into the “push here” tab. Now the “push here” tab is opened. This is what the back looks like when the “push here” tab is opened. Notice in the middle there is a “pin” sticking out? From the front, take out ...

Hope everything works out for you. Best, David

While I still find it a bit fussy, I was able to reduce the total time it took to change straps this morning, so I'm sure with more practice I'll continue to get better. Thanks again for your tips and quick reply. ...  

You are amazing. This is nowhere to be found in the manual etc. Now it makes 100% sense. Mine fell off and the watch hit the floor. Did not look like that piece moves at all. You are a lifesaver.

Ouch is your watch OK? Best, David

Anyone had the rotating side of the clasp slide out of the plate that says press here? I was just fiddling with a strap replacement, and it pulled out so that the non spring bar was too short. It presses in but it no longer instills confidence. Was there ...

I went to put my Reverso on this morning and the deployant strap fell apart. After reading everything here I figured it out. JLC has an awful design. If the end of the clasp had holes for the spring bar this would not have happened. The slots that the spr...
