GMT 11 TT 50th Anniversary Clasp
The clasp on the TT GMT has some nice features.
Hidden holes with slotted entry for ease of micro pin adjustment.  Quick and easy rollover adjustment for tension - what's it called again Bo?  Spring loaded lock - I don't, however, like to have to lift the locking clasp by the overhanging base of the gold crown. I feel as if I am going to flick it off.  JJ's patented solid gold (not filled - not plated   ) over the stainless steel. Daytona style and very solid construction all round compared to my SD and TT Sub and SS Sub bracelets for example. I hope Rolex eventually supplies this bracelet and clasp with all (if I can say it) tool watches. Maxi dial with the same thickness hour and minute hand. What other features do we need?

agreed 100% the new clasp is amazing
by the way..how do you open the small extension? Just pulling it out or you have to press somewhere like the submariner? I forgot to check that on my new style SS gmt but now it's gone |
