1680 case size vs 16610

Can anyone else confirm the 1680 case was a bit thicker than the 16610?  Not including crystal height.  Just raw mid-case... I picked up a genuine 16610 and it looks like it has slimmer sides than my 1680 case.  The 1680 feels more substantial than the 16610.

 

Thanks.

I guess that the lugs are a wee bit thicker on the 1680. Whereas the 16800 and 16610 share some similar parts, particularly the crystal and bezel assembly, the 16800 was a definite departure from the 1680. The 16800 also has a thinner caseback than the 16610 and the two casebacks are not interchangeable. I consider the 16800 and 16610 as definite improvements over the 1680- especially as noted by the improved depth ratings.
