Could Rolex remove the cyclops and just make the date window larger?

WG DaytonaC wear smaller than subc?
Hello guysI am looking to buy the daytona c on oysterflex either WG or RG. Already own a 116610ln and have read but have read comments saying the daytona looks and wears smaller on the wrist? Is there any truth to this? As both are 40mm and i wouldnt really want anything smaller than my sub.Not too fussed about thickness more about overall lug to lug size and diameter...If anyone who has a daytona on oysterflex or leather strap and a subc could take some side by side pics or maybe both watches on 1 wrist would be most gratefulAny feedback welcomeCheers guys!

Daytona with sapphire case back
Case back of from Thomas P from custom watch concept out of Germany, he doesn't answer emails but I purchased it anyways since there's a lot of reviews here on the TRF. My AD charged me 40.00 to install and pressure test. I love to see the movement even though it's not at AP level. It's reversible so it's no big deal to go back to OEM.
