Submariner 16610 with easylink

Hi,

I just got my Sub and love it !

However last night I was out and noticed that although the watch is loose in the day it was quite tight when it was hot.

Is there any way to get an easylink bracelet or even just the clasp for the 16610?

Has anyone done this?

The only way to get an "easy link" is to get a Daytona or a GMT II bracelet for your Sub.

You then lose the divers extension, so there is a trade-off.

The latest Sub Glide-lock bracelets solve all these problems, but they are only on the DSSD in Stainless so far.

The problem in the USA is that nobody actually carries these clasps or bracelets for sale to the general public, so most of us are pretty much SOL...

Thanks for the info, Larry! I was curious about that myself. I would really like to get that new clasp on my current Sub, although I'm guessing I'm just going to buy the DSSD for a Christmas present to myself this year.

Larry, my AD offered to sell me a new GMT IIc bracelet, but if I remember correctly, it came to about 2K with tax, so I passed! But if you want one, let me know!
