I've seen them on newer Oyster Perpetual 116000.

Not mine.

Interesting, I haven't seen that yet. I think I like the traditional raised crown better.

Can be found on many models post 2007. All of the new OPs, the old supercased air King (1142xx series).

My 114300 OP 39mm has this clasp on the 20mm 70200 bracelet

Prefer the engraved crown.

The raised crown wears off over time, and, in my experiences, ages more quickly than other parts of a Rolex.

I'm going to be the first here on TRF to give these clasps a nickname...they are going to be called from this point on..."innies" vs the usual "outies"

Interesting! I'm aware of it on the OP but as yet haven't seen it on a 116400, looked at a Milgauss blue dial new in to the AD yesterday and my black GV last year didn't have it so guess it's a new change filtering through on them.

Have you got a pic? Wondering how it looks on the PCL clasp rather then the fully brushed OP clasp.

That's the standard clasp I had on my Milgauss its not the one with the engraved Rolex crown that the OP posted, yours has the more common raised crown like the majority of Rolex watches.
