I don't own any watches with hex screw bars, but it would seem to be a sensible alternative to slotted screws.
I know the Benarus Megalodon has hex screws fitted, how many other companies make use of these?
The Funfhundert from Kazimon got Hex. screws also.
It's still a rare design I think: Majorities are slotted...
When you look at it, a slotted screw is much more easy to manufacture than an hexagonal: You just need to make a "cut" it the head...
I think that maybe the cost got something to do with it: But I am not watchmaker or brand-owner and I can't be sure of that...
It would be very interesting to get the point of view from a brand or watchmaker in this thread.
So if one of you guys read this, please put your meanings!
