Hi, can someone provide a side by side photo of the current SS Daytona Clasp and the previous one?

How does it wear differently is there a huge difference in comfort?

Thanks in advance...

Many have said the old style is more comfortable on the wrist.

My brother's two are the hole style (first gen 116520 clasp) and one has bent while both are very loose and wobbly from use. That thing really isn't a good design for long term use.

Have had both and i must say i prefer the newer one.

I have the older style clasp and never liked the feel...just wanted to see if the newer one felt better...which I think it will, not too much chance to try one on though, but it looks close to the new SubC, which does feel good.

1) which old style? 1st one or 2nd (really old style... my preference) one from left?

2) is there any difference between the 2 on the right that is not obvious?
