Bracelet clasp...Sub-C vs. GMTIIC
I know there's a size difference, but can anyone share the actual mm size difference between the two?
For those who own both watches, how would you rate the comfort differences between them? Is there a noticeable difference to you when wearing the Sub-C...does the clasp get in the way? Thanks in advance for your feedback and comments. |

Had them both.
They both feel good on the wrist. As for size of the clasp I'd say they alike-ish...

Same 20mm size bracelet.
There is a difference in the clasp style. The SubC has a longer clasp to accommodate the diver's extension link. Here is a picture. |

I currently have the GMT C and do find it more appealing asthetically that the Sub C clasp. I have had 2 sub C's and comfort is NOT an issue with the larger clasp. However since I have a 6.50 inch wrist, the clasp pretty much covered the entire bottom of my wrist This would NOT deter me from the watch rather just an observation.
Sub C clasp ease of adjustability... GMT C clasp long term comfort/more asthetically appealing IMO

Due to the 100m depth rating/thinner case back, the 116710 wears flater, hence can be more comfortable most wrists.

Same quality bracelet and clasp ... 100% bullet proof in both watches, but the glidelock adds more adjustability from day to day, which has its advantages.
