SD4K update and important question
Hello everybody
I wanted to update an earlier post I made regarding the choice between a 116600 SD4K and a submariner 116610LV (hulk). So I ended up opting for the SD4K, both because it was less expensive and also a better daily wear watch (for me anyway). It’s in very good condition and unpolished, but I have a question about the clasp because when I was doing research on these, everyone mentioned that they had a bead-blasted inside clasp and this one does not. Is this POLISHED inside clasp a feature that may possibly have been on some production years or do they ALWAYS have the beaded-blast clasp? Mine has a polished inside clasp. Thanks |

But…
Here is what I ended up acquiring. I really like it and it wears very well. It doesn’t feel much larger than my submariner however, I haven’t tried wearing a long sleeve cuff yet. |

Normal, they transitioned from textured to polished.

Mine has the beaded blast clasp and was from the last year of productio. So I guess it varies
