This is one of the main differences between a gen and a replica clasp. See how much thinner the metal is on the replica clasp, this extra metal is what gives the genuine one it's weight. The lack of the extra metal makes the rep feel too light and more like a replica. With a 16610, the feel of the watch is all in the bracelet. This is where JF and ARF and it seems TC too will drop the ball when you have a genuine 16610 in one hand and a replica in the other. The genuine will feel better/heavier/more substantial with the extra weight dangling in your hand from an open bracelet.
Also, because the metal is thicker the stamped impressions are deeper, more defined and consistent..
A genuine clasp (or bracelet) would be an amazing upgrade to one of these.
