Glidelock for 78790A bracelet

Wondering if I can fit a SubC or DSSD Glidelock clasp to the bracelet of the last generation 16570?

I have a random serial ExpII 16570 from 2012, which comes with the 78790A bracelet.

AFAIK it should be no problem fitting any of the Glidelock clasps to the 93250 bracelet of a 16610, so am I correct in assuming it should be an easy fit for the 78790A as well?

Thanks guys!

Well if you could just source a clasp expect to pay over well £1000 over $1600 plus

Thanks, but my question was not about sourcing the clasp But are you saying it is not a problem technically?

Luckily I have no problem sourcing the clasp and while it is still expensive it is quite a bit less than £1000 - at least for the SubC clasp. Haven't checked pricing on the DSSD clasp, but no issue buying this either.

If only my LVc was not out of town at the moment, I could just try it out myself.

It is a 16710 that has the exact same bracelet (78790A) and case with the 16570
