Why would you need one with the new glide-lock?

Arrgo · 18 March 2010, 05:55 AM

But will it fit the older watches?

happylife · 18 March 2010, 05:57 AM

anyone knows if ther is video showing how glidelock work?

Joey_V · 18 March 2010, 05:59 AM

I love the glidelock...

gmaines · 18 March 2010, 06:18 AM

Looking closely, I see an EZ-link extension, and then the Glidelock actually ratchets out another inch or so... That should be more than enough for most Sub Wearers..

I don't know if the additional Deep Sea extension will bolt in or not......

ffighter556 · 18 March 2010, 06:36 AM

Dont need it but deep sea has it. Just figured it would also being a dive watch.

newmedia · 18 March 2010, 06:43 AM

I prefer SEIKO MM300 version, it can be adjusted while its on the wrist.

The whole point of glidelock is that the wearer can adjust the size 1.8mm at a time without having to remove the watch from the wrist

Also, I don't see an easylink?

You guys are right...... I didn't word that right.... The glidelock provides an EZ-Link effect as you slide it along the ratchet...and it ratchets out an additional inch or so...

This link does the work and provides some adjustment............

WatchnRoll · 18 March 2010, 07:49 AM

Am I wrong or this isn't the same as the glidelock on the Deep Sea where the center of the clasp lifts up and you can make micro adjustments...

Or is it the same design as the Deep Sea?

SDDS · 18 March 2010, 07:50 AM

nice

A friend of mine in Auckland recently got the new TT Blue Sub and I had the opportunity to check it out.

In addition to the GLIDELOCK system, it also has a small HALF Easy Link which should be first pulled out and only then will the GLIDING system work.

Once you've reached a satisfactory length with the GLIDELOCK, just click down on the Easy Link and the whole system gets LOCKED into place.

That bracelet on a 16610 would be perfect!

SUPERB!!

Looks identical to the new TT Subs with the HALF Easy Link and the excellent, so easy to use GLIDELOCK system.

Now I'm wondering whether it is possible to install the SS Sub-C GlideLock clasp on a SS GMT IIC bracelet?

Or maybe put an entire bracelet w/ clasp from a SS Sub-C onto the SS GMT IIC? If it's possible, I'd love to see cost estimates
