But from a use perspective they are identical, both looks and function.

Hope this helps.

There really isn’t a “Daytona clasp” per se. As you correctly stated the Oysterclasp Easylink used on the 78200 & 78590 are identical.

The RSC might know the random clasp code had been originally attached to one bracelet type or the other. But with an AD doing clasp work, there will always be the chance a replacement clasp doesn’t get associated in the Rolex database.

It’s ancillary to the point of spending $1000+ for a cosmetic flaw inflicted by accidental misuse. The repair cost should be far less and would be customary in any other category of jewelry. Plus it’d be impossible to see.
