Any idea how it happened? Very rarely hear of something that causes a spring bar failure.

Also something fun to think about are the watches with fixed bars like the Pelagos FXD or love what SEL Instruments bracelet is over engineered to do.

Honestly no idea. I noticed it was hangin’ 🤙 loose 🤙 right before I went through the scanner. Probably got yanked off somehow when I was tearing off my parka. Was running quite late for the flight lol

Nato strap?

funny

It's a one-piece strap that slides underneath the case so that the skin never touches metal. It means the strap will stay on the wrist even if a spring bar pops out as evidenced by OPs story.

H1-B transfer question

I recently accepted an offer to join a company (A) . They started my H1-B transfer and I received today the approval notice for the transfer.

However, I accepted last week a (better) offer at another company (B) and they will start soon my H1-B transfer.

I attend to tell company (A) on Monday that I will not be joining them. Will there be any issue with company B filing for a H1-B transfer soon?
