2013 Clasp models
in 2010 early newer model clasps notably gmt2 c had parts that were WELDED/SOLDERED together instead of being machined so that lead to some people having their clasp broken and poping open. NOW ON THE 2013 114060 SUBMARINER CERAMIC ARE THERE STILL WELDED/SOLDERED PARTS THAT CAN LEAD TO THE BREAKING AND POPING OF THE CLASP IF WORE THIGHT OR DID ROLEX FIX THE ISSUE BY MACHINING THE WHOLE THING ?

looks like still welded. But I've heard less of the problem since I had the same problem with the GMT-C. Probably Rolex improved on their welding technique.

Define tight? I prefer to be able to slide my pinky finger between my wrist & the clasp.
