126660 is the ultimate James Cameron Deepsea. 136660 just lost features.

It could be argued that the 136660 also gained some real world practical features in return for losing some.
To me, it's about even technically speaking. But maybe the 136660 is a better package for the vast bulk of owners, especially since the introduction of the AR crystal and larger area of the flat section of the Caseback?

Anyway, the best will always be the original 116660.
Just keep that in mind

There you go, these are the only differences.

For me, it's basically a downgrade and seems like cost-cutting.

I think the bezel width was altered slightly too?

Read it somewhere, can’t remember if it was slimmed down or widened, sorry *
