small clasp on explorer 2

how does everyone feel about the smaller clasp on the ex 2?
i have always preferred the longer submariner version so on my old and new ex 2 i had them switch it to the longer

It's a clasp. Works well. The Sub clasp is thick and doesn't fit as well in my opinion.

I'm probably in the minority, but I actually prefer the easy link clasp on the EXP/GMT/DJII line.

I agree with the OP and do not like it as well. I have started a thread about the Sub clasp asking why its not standard and I really mean it and the Exp and Gmt are ruled out because of the clasp. Alright to be fair I dont need the Gmt function so blaming the clasp is easy.

Doesn't bother me in the least.
