If done very professionally by the right watchmaker who knows his job, I don't think there should be any difference. The case back is pretty flat and made of sapphire crystal.

I love these transparent casebacks only if they come as original fittings....like in the Aqua Terra from OMEGA and some others. I would never do that to my Rolex.
