116518 Pikachu Glidelock, is that possible?
Hey guys,
While I do enjoy the 116518, it is difficult top get a perfect fit with the micro adjustment. The 126518 has the glidelock but I do not like the dial. Do you think the service center would sell me a glidelock clasp and fit it to my 116518? |

Have you seen the new dial and bezel design in person? I have it and personally find it strikes the perfect balance between sporty and elegant in a manner that’s IMO superior to the 116 models. Don’t get me wrong both are great, but I’d recommend having a look at the new one in person if you haven’t yet.

At $8k, that's a little rich for my blood. Not to mention, if by some miracle they do "let" you spend 8k for a new clasp, you may need different size straps. I say 'may' b/c I don't know. Anyway, good luck and let us know how it works out for you.

Honestly I prefer the previous dial, more bold and sporty.

To answer your question. I know it will fit but I advise you size down on 6 o clock side. On the 116518 I wear a E and F on Oysterflex. On 126518 I need D and F. |

The glide lock is worth upgrading for in my opinion. Best bracelet adjustment system available today.
