I think the glidelock (at least) should be available for ALL rolex professional models, period. It's too good to be restricted to the divers.

Here's a nice little YouTube video to whet your appetite regarding the SDc: VIDEO

At 3:35 he displays the Glidelock and diver's extension. It'll give you an idea as to how they work. Not a great explanation but might help.

I think most people would just be happy with an option to upgrade it or buy seperate
