Which Subs came with the "half" link?

Does anybody know which Sub came with the smaller "half" link? Is it only Sub-Dates that have it? Only a certain serial? Any info would be appreciated!

I believe it is only the Sub date with the half link. Sub half-link on top, GMT standard link on bottom.

Because how the bracelet connects to the sub differently, it requires the half-link to stay centered and keep the bracelet the same as the other Rolex bracelets. The clasp case is longer on the Sub, but the clasp itself is the same length as the other subs.



Gmt left, Sub, right

The half-link is on the later Sub 93250 bracelet..

The earlier 93150 bracelets with the older style divers extension do not have the half-link.
