Correct. The YM above is a glidelock I think. Either way it's always 12 bigger than 6 in their tables.

I do think about trying D-E or D-F

17,5cm wrist, now with the E-E it’s a bit shorter at 12 o clock. Would like the 6 o clock to be the shorter side.
New 12 series OF Daytonas come with a glidelock clasp the same as the Subs?? Does this include new PM 12 series non-OF Daytonas?

Had no idea!

What size do you use in the oysterflex? I have e-e and think I will keep it like that. But would also like the 6’o clock to be a little shorter.

Classy
That's a beautiful watch that's classy, sporty, yet not flashy in your face saying "look at me!"

Having second thoughts, if I should have choosen the same watch in yellow gold with champagne dial and black subdials. I really like the toned down WG but there is some charm to the YG as well at the same time YG really is more flashy and the WG goes under the radar and is more suited for daily wear in that way. Still divided between the two. ��

Someone wrote the YG is more rare. I thought the WG was more rare. Anyone know for sure?

Not sure about rarity but there are many more of the WG on Chrono24 but I think it’s because it’s more in demand, I don’t know. I have the 126518LN & the 116519LN. I agree that you can daily the WG, but the YG is much more eye-catching, especially with the slight changes to the case, which isn’t necessarily a good thing.

I wouldn’t be too regretful of your choice, it’s an amazing watch with a classic, timeless dial, and I’ve never seen another one in the wild.
