Well it was offered on the explorer for the first time with the 114270 model which came out in the year 2000. My guess would be a little it earlier than that?

I think you meant Oysterlock. Somewhere Mid 90's.
Fliplock is a extension link for old Subs & Old/New Sea-Dweller watches. To be more precise. 1995 /1996 for the Explorer 14270. At that time, the GMT was also equipped with an Oysterlock Clasp. Began about serial number W. (1995) I saw W numbers watches with and without Oysterlock Clasp at the time. Oysterlock Clasp: Fliplock extension link: |
