TTSub Question

Guys-

On the TT Sub, does the SEL and Gold thru the clasp go together.

Another words, could the watch have NON SEL, and still have the gold thru the clasp?

I thought the two go hand in hand...

Thanks
-Bob

Can someone give me the dates of the differences?

The non-SEL bracelet will NOT have the gold running over the clasp.

The SEL bracelet, however, does.

Not sure what you're looking at Bob..

That is an SEL bracelet with gold-thru clasp.

How's it a SEL with holes through the watch case?

Lug hole cases and Solid End Links (SEL) are two different animals..

When they transitioned from the lug hole cases on the TT (~2001) they even designated the model 16613T. with the T meaning non-lug hole models because the early bracelets did not have the notches in the back for the spring pins.

Matching bracelets would also have the T as a suffix in the part number..
