Clasp upgrade on 35mm yachtmaster?

We've seen the new clasp upgrade on the 116622 but it seems like the 35 mm still carries the tuna clasp and older style bracelet.

Anyone heard if that is also gonna be upgraded?

Thanks

I thought that the 35mm did get the latest Oysterlock clasp, just not the ez-link.

But I admit that I don't really follow the YM much so perhaps somebody with hands on knowledge will chime in..

I checked one out at an AD last week. It still has the old style clasp. I thought it was a NOS, but it was the newest model. Very disappointing!

Yes indeed, quite disappointing. I would expect them to also update the bracelet and clasp just like they did with the 116622. I would def be buying it if it were not using the tuna clasp

I'm the opposite. I'd buy it because it has the older clasp.
