I bought a Deep sea d blue last December and I have just found that the bracelet seems different from the black dial DS. It has a polished buckle instead of the sandblasted one on the black dial. I went to RSC and they said everything is normal. However, I have found that the Dblue bracelet is looser than the Black DS one. Does anyone have any experience on this?

Thanks

All new bracelet clasps are not sandblasted but polished now my new SSDaytona has polished clasp much nicer looking alls ok

Is the new bracelet a bit looser than old ones? For example the safety clasp is loose (it swings back and forth when not fastened)compared to the tight one on older bracelet

It shouldn't be loose maybe get the AD to look at it it should be tight when closed not swinging at all

It is tight when closed but it feels loose when not fastened. The safety clasp swings back and forth easily when not fastened

Everything sounds fine to me. As already mentioned the clasp is polished on the inside now and the safety clasp moving freely should not be a concern.

RSC says it is fine but I have doubts because I do not know if the new bracelet is supposed to feel looser than the old one on my black DS which has a sandblasted buckle. Could anyone compare the two bracelets? One with sandblasted buckle and the other with polished 4nf buckle. Both are 98210 but feels different. Thanks a lot.

It's how it should be

But is that a step backwards?
