it's not that soft Will..it is a bronze alloy which was  discussed in the Benarus forum last year when the watch was being talked about...same as the Anonimo....I only stated that if someone were to use a case hardened screw that it may not need to be tapped/threaded on the small end and should be able to forge threads on it's own...this faux screw springbar is very secure and I don't see why anyone would want to replace it with a screw?..this springbar is thick in the center much like a Panny tube that is used to reinforce their screw lug...ThumbsUp02.gif


Ok, I see!
But my question was also: Is there any thread there or I dream it? After, everybody is free to use it or not, like on a Pam...

great question and now I understand Will...after taking my loupe and checking the lug hole it is indeed threaded on the smaller end and a single sided threaded lug-screw ie: Panerai  can be used.
... which after actually checking out what came in the packaging a set of actual lug-screws are included with the BronzMO along with the springbars...DOH
