New models with glidelock adjustability
Do you think rolex will introduce any other models beyond the Subs, SD, SDDS with glidelock micro adjustability? It's one of my favorite features and would be great to see on other models.

They might, but probably not on a widespread basis - I think they see it as a differentiator that allows them to charge more for the feature. Realistically, the cost to them to manufacture Glidelocks for Explorers etc. is negligible, but they need to justify their differing price points somehow.
If other manufacturers start to offer quick-adjust clasps (with no tools) as standard, then Rolex might be compelled to follow suit. It is a really fantastic feature, and I miss it on other watches. Of course, the bulk of a Glidelock clasp wouldn't work so well on the less 'toolish'/sports models. |

Would be really nice to see more glidelock options. I agree with you it's a fantastic feature.
Was hoping it'd be on my new explorer but finding the easy link to work well also. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
