I can't stop looking at it...

I just picked up my 16610 2 weeks ago and love love love my watch. I looked at the 116610 but decided the look and feel of the 16610 was for me not to mention the weight. I never noticed, for lack of a better word "hole" in the bracelet clasp when it's fastened. Before you say it I know this would not be there on the 116610 but that's not my question. Is this the norm? I have a tag with the similar clasp and it's flat, no hole. I'd appreciate your input guys. I can't stop staring at it when I type all day and now I'm wondering what to do.

Staring lovingly at your new watch = completely normal WIS behavior.

The "hole" is an air intake duct; that's why the watch is so cool!

Looking is ok. If you fondle it too often, you will get hairy palms.. oh wait, I think that's from something else. Never mind.

Enjoy your new watch.
