116610LN AND 126610LN bracelets.

Are they the same for sizing? If you had 2 links out on the old model, is it the same for the new one?? For the lucky people who have both... what’s the verdict??

Thanks in advance!

I read somewhere that the new one had one less link on the bracelet. Have no clue if it’s true or not! LOL.

I don’t remember the exact count of links but I sized them 126610 same way as my 114060 and with the same number of links on each I had the 41mm glidlock clasp almost all the way extended out where as the 40mm glidlock clasp I was about 50%< extended.

So I added a link back into the 126610 and have my glidlock on almost the smallest so that way it has plenty to expend when needed or it gets hot

The 114060's GlideLock is longer adding to the overall length. Usually I have to add a link but with my 114060 had to remove one .

I just got my 126610 today and it has one less link than my 116613. I was wondering about that.

Sizing wise, exactly the same number of links as the 116613. But the glidelock position is set at the mininum on the new whereas 2 notches on the 116613.

I have the 114060 and the 124060, both exactly the same.

12 series Subs have one less removable link on the bracelet, but as far as I know the total amount of links is the same.
