Oh - sorry guys - ALSO

Do both of these have the solid (not hollow) center links (ie a heavier bracelet?) and the new clasp?

Pics? Anyone have good pics or recommendations?

Hi,

The GMT IIc - 116710LN
The Daytona - 116520 (same for both the white and black dials)

They do both have the new clasps, and solid center links.

I think the GMT-IIc is now just 116710N.

Best of luck getting either of them!

Both are awesome watches, and very different:

Flipping my Perfect 1.5 month old Sub!

Jos-

Thanks for remembering! I did check with watchmaker - just like RSC said - normal!

I want to sell my 1.5 month old SS Sub Date now... Hope there are some takers here on TRF! Watch is perfect and just like new in box.

Prob is, I love my SS Sub Date (M Series).... It just doesn't feel right with the older style clasp. I'm used to clasps like the GMTIIc and Daytona on my other watches and I cannot get the Sub to "feel right" on my wrist.

Too bad it didn't work out - I love this watches dial and looks - just not the bracelet.

So, I'm planning on getting either the GMTIIc or Daytona... Calling my AD today actually to see what they have and if they can order???

If you know anyone wanting a 1.5 month old SS Sub Date M series as new, let me know!

I am very envious off all the GMT-IIc and Daytona pictures.

Those two are a beautiful combo.

Also, is the current model# 116710LN (I tried the 116710N only and didn't work on a search)
