Why don you like bout the new clasp and why do you prefer the non-ceramic insert?

I pefer the classic 14060/16610 style, but there's nothing wrong with the new Ceramics, found them more appealing in person than in forum pictures.

If you wear your watch tight or constantly lose, the old clasp is a great choice. If you like to adjust for climate/heat/cold - the newer clasp(s) are awesome. Even just the ezlink once adjusted properly.

Classic ones for me as well.

The inserts are cheap to replace at RSC.

Love the look of the new ceramic insert though. But the case proportion is why I flipped my 116610

I like both but chose the 116610 as I prefer the ceramic bezel, larger case and the upgrades in general.

So Sub-C for me.

Hmm... I own a 16610 and I would say the things I like most about the new Sub is the ceramic bezel and the new clasp/bracelet. What I don't like about the new Sub is the case changes made. I am very indifferent towards the maxi dial.
