Looks awesome!  I still need to pickup a No Rehaut version to swap my serviced Yuki 3135 into.  The SEL fitment on my JF (older rehaut version) is less than stellar, yours looks great!

 

Why the Yuki clasp?  What didn't you like about the JF clasp?

I spent about 3 hours removing the burs on the JF bracelet and clasp when I received mine.  After that, it felt much better.

 

Lug holes and SEL bracelet would look great.  That would put you in the more exclusive 2001 - 2003 range?

Very nice build! What about the bezel, has it improved over the previous version and might a new click spring help to make it tighter?

Bezel seems good to me.  Very little lateral movement.   Firm clicks (nothing like the ceramic  models though).   I believe mike adjusted/modded the click spring to make tighter.  

I’ve had a gen 16610 in from what I can remember it felt the same
