Be strong for her. The mind is incredibly powerful. Make sure she interprets what's happening around her with the most positivity.

Bo, I like the upgraded clasp. Have never seen it with the recessed coronet. Can you tell me what watch it would normally be on?

The bracelet reference 70200 for the OP 116000 has the embossed coronet on the clasp as standard... only modification I had made to the clasp is having the Easylink installed.

The new-style Air-King has the same kind of clasp (embossed coronet; no Easylink)... The "Date" comes with a clasp with Easylink right from the manufacture (and has the coronet welded onto the clasp).

Advantage of the embossed coronet: You have the clasp (re)brushed without destroying the contours of the Rolex coronet on the clasp since - being imbossed - it is level with the rest of the surface of the clasp.

Thanks Bo. I wonder what other bracelets this clasp would fit? All of mine have a welded on coronet. It always catches on desk edges and other surfaces. This would be a nice upgrade.
